Howdy-hoo, y'all... SO thankful that I made it to the end of the week! I got major fun stuff happening this weekend, so I hope I can muster up the energy to be fully in each moment! After confessing my desire to create a harvest tablescape, thanks to my new feathered friends, I decided to gather up some inspiration. I don't do a lot of tablescapes, so it was fun to see what was catching my eye on the old world wide web. :) Enjoy the eye … [Read more...]
Shopping on Saturday {Thrifty Finds}
Hump Daa--ayyy! Whew! I shoulda buckled my seat belt on Monday morning, 'cuz this has been a doozy of a week so far. But I wanted to pop in and show you what I found while doing a little shopping on Saturday in Dothan, Alabama. I love to try to check out antique shops in other towns... never know what you'll find or what inspiration will come your way! Here's some things that sowed a seed of inspiration or two... A bicycle wheel … [Read more...]
My Favorite Chalk Paint Projects
Happy Monday, folks! I'm digging out from yet another weekend away... this time it was a wedding and what a great time we had celebrating! I even squeezed in some antiquing and will show you my finds later this week! Back to reality now -- Open House prep for my booth, parent conferences at school, and the holiday To Do list growing by leaps and bounds. One of the things I've missed doing this fall is painting furniture... my schedule just … [Read more...]
Quick Start Chicken Soup
Are y'all running like me? I don't know why I'm surprised every year by how busy we get once Halloween is in our rear view mirror. Maybe I block it out so that as November approaches I'm not paralyzed by angst about getting it all done. Thank you, Lord, for that! :) Anyhow, I have to admit I come up short in the meal department during the great build up to Thanksgiving Day as I'm furiously making lists, beginning Christmas prep in the midst … [Read more...]
Country Living Fair Goodies
Monday was a blur, so here we are Tuesday! If you follow me on Instagram you know why, but more on that later... I realized I never showed you what I scored at the Country Living Fair last month, so today's your day! Of course those vintage oversized flash cards were immediately calling my name... they weren't cheap, so I chose my two favorites. The world map paper? There are actually two of them there... one project for my classroom … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {October}
Holy Cow. October flew by in a hurry, didn't it? My pause did not last nearly as long as I'd hoped, but I'm thankful there was a bit of one in there. Here we are in November and the slide into the holidays is on its way! I think I'm actually ready to get some Christmas crafting going soon... is that scary or what? ;-) Unfortunately when I look at our calendar for the month, I'm not seeing much time to spare! Guess I'll have to get clever, … [Read more...]
My Fall Front Porch (Finally!)
Hello, friends! It's practically Halloween and I haven't shared my porch yet! Actually, I'm not a Halloween girl... so the most that might get added to this would be a fuzzy felt spider and a plug-in jack o'lantern. My peeps are no longer interested in carving pumpkins... in fact, they'll all be "hanging out" with friends and not trick-or-treating tomorrow night. The hubs will be out as well, so it looks like me, my bowl of candy, and my … [Read more...]
Country Living Fair 2013
Y'all. What a great - busy fun - weekend we had! Some long time friends came in town and the girls spent Saturday taking in the Country Living Fair at Stone Mountain! Let me just say, if you ever get the chance to take this in... DO IT! We were blessed with a beautiful day and were amazed at the scope of this event! If this tower of pumpkins and gourds doesn't put you in the fall spirit, I don't know what will! If you … [Read more...]
