Inspiring Blogger Interview: Megan from Balancing Home
March 11, 2013 by · 2 Comments
Happy Monday, friends! While I'm sunning myself and enjoying my husband's company, I'm so happy that a wonderful blogger is here to keep you company! I've been bloggy friends with Megan for a over a year and I love her thrifty ways, her incredible printables, and her sweet family that is going from 4 to 5 in a matter of weeks! Yikes -- I don't know how she does it all. But she's here to share her thoughts and hopefully inspire a few of … [Read more...]
February’s Favorite Things
March 8, 2013 by · Leave a Comment
Well, you know what they say... better late than never! But we're only a week into March, so I figure this isn't too bad, right? February was pretty busy, but in a really great way. And now we're rocking and rolling into the spring schedule, but not before the hubs and I take in a week of R & R. Yay for R & R! But without further ado, here are a few of my favorites from February... 1. My No Spend Month. Seriously, y'all? … [Read more...]
The Elephant in the Room
March 4, 2013 by · 3 Comments
Happy Monday! I'm recovering from a busy weekend with my parents in town and my youngest son's confirmation. Seems like just yesterday he was baptized and now he's confirmed and headed for Europe with his Youth Group this summer. Yowza. Anyhoo, I thought I'd share something fun today, while I finish up editing the mass of photos from my February DIYs. The last couple of months while I've been out and about and trolling Pinterest, I've seen … [Read more...]
TGIF… headed to Scott’s. :)
February 8, 2013 by · 6 Comments
Well, I was hoping to have a couple of projects finished, photographed, and ready to share today. Not quite. :) Wax is drying, burlap is cut/staged/ready, lampshade is poised for her makeover. But it was a crazy week on the home front and at school, so I got nothin'. In fact, I took a nap when I got home from school yesterday. It was that kind of week. This should be a banner weekend for those 90% projects, though, so I'll have some … [Read more...]
A February Challenge
February 4, 2013 by · 18 Comments
Hi gang! Hope you had a lovely weekend. We enjoyed some nice cold weather here (and you know I like that!) but had some sunshine along with it. Winning! If you missed my interview with Laura from Top This Top That, click here to be totally inspired today! Last week, I mentioned that February was to be a month of DIYs. I didn't do many in January... too busy on the home front. But February is looking good for one big reason. I hereby … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Monday

I'm in the home stretch with my parent conferences this week... and I'm ready to be thinking about and planning decor projects -- like a few on my Home Goals list. If you missed them, click HERE to see what I've got in store. There's plenty to choose from don't you think? ;-) I also hit the thrift store a few days ago... love a good score! Check out this amazing mirror -- it's huge! Near perfect condition, for only $8.98. Woo hoo! … [Read more...]
5 Ways to Decorate with Cute Gift Wrap
January 24, 2013 by · 5 Comments
Did you catch this amazing blue houndstooth gift wrap I scored at HomeGoods? I mean, it's adorable right? I think I would be crushed to see this wadded up and discarded once a gift is opened, so the odds of this actually being used for gift wrap are slim. So what to do with it? Well, it'll figure in with this beauty... Mmm, mmm, mmm! I think they play nicely together, don't you? So I jumped on Pinterest to scrounge up … [Read more...]
Looking Back (a 2012 Review)
January 13, 2013 by · 4 Comments
Looking back is not my strong suit. :) I'm a proponent of moving on, pressing ahead, not looking back. But 2012 was a year of growth and change for Decor & More, and many of you are new around here...so I think it's fitting that I do a little review of last year's projects and progress. In January, I did a little thrifting, some organization, and added some art work to my Mom Cave. I also created this easy little moss … [Read more...]
Four Happy Things
January 7, 2013 by · 11 Comments
I found myself down in the dumps about going back to work this week... not a good way to start a new semester! Maybe it was that I was sick for a good chunk of my break. Maybe because we were on the go non-stop until Saturday and I was missing that chance to take a breath. Maybe I'm a tad burned out. At any rate, I figured I'd post four things that make me happy today... like warm and fuzzy on the inside happy. How 'bout it? 1. My NEW … [Read more...]
