This has been a busy week and I want to thank you all for your prayers... I have surely felt God's presence and His grace as I've moved through a few situations! I'm so thankful I serve a big God who walks with me, guides me, and shows His grace every day. Today I want to share my plan for the front porch... it's been QUITE a while since there's been a major overhaul (normally it's just fresh plants/pillows) and I'm itching to do that this … [Read more...]
Front Porch for Spring
April 21, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Hello, Thursday! This week is flying right by, isn't it? We've been blessed with some great weather this week, but unfortunately the pollen is still a factor so I haven't made much progress on outdoor projects. I DID get some weeding and cleaning up of the flower beds done though. :) And we've set out our hummingbird feeder -- it's early for them, but who knows? What I REALLY want to tackle though is our front porch and back deck... we … [Read more...]
Spring Mantel and Some Easter Thoughts
March 29, 2016 by · Leave a Comment
I started this post yesterday, but life got in the way so here we are today! And it's high time I share my spring mantel with you. You got a sneak peek of it when I shared my DIY twig cross last week. I've had this mantel in place for a couple of weeks now and love it! But as you know... things are always subject to change around here. :) This time around I wanted a mix of metals and wood tones, and just an overall fresh feeling. I … [Read more...]

March 25, 2016 by · 3 Comments
Hello, friends! I didn't mean to be MIA all week, but I've had some busy days following my beach getaway weekend, and my Lenten discipline of staying offline in the evenings has me running behind a bit. :) I'll discuss more about that next week, but today I wanted to share a super easy DIY for Easter. You probably have everything you need for this right at home! I simply gathered some twigs from my yard, pulled out my garden snips and … [Read more...]

I know you thought I'd given up the ghost here at Decor & More... and truthfully, I had to for a time. But I wanted to pop in today on this lovely spring day and say hello and I've missed you! I've got a huge work project I'm working on but can announce soon and I'm so excited to share with you all what has had me working 60 hours a week for the last three months. So stay tuned for that! Needless to say, my home projects have been … [Read more...]
Come on, SPRING!
March 10, 2015 by · 3 Comments
We just had the most delightful weekend here in the ATL -- chilly mornings, mild afternoons, and -- most importantly -- sunshine! I didn't mind spending hours at the soccer field because... well -- sun! Goodness it did wonders for my mindset. And it got me craving a little spring brightness in my abode, too. Even though I just refreshed my winter mantel a couple of weeks ago, let's face it. Those first few pretty spring days just get my … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It x2 (April and May)
June 2, 2014 by · 1 Comment
Y'all I'm so far behind, I never recapped April! And since my feed was doing wonky things in late April/early May, I figured it warranted a quick recap of both months! I finally was able to regroup a bit after the crowd of young adults left on Saturday... things will be a tad quieter here now, so I've been working on some new DIY ideas and gathering supplies for a couple of home projects (yay summertime!). But before we embark on June, let's … [Read more...]
DIY Twig Vase
May 28, 2014 by · 2 Comments
You wouldn't think such an easy DIY would take me two weeks to share, but life/end of school happened and here we are! We enjoyed some fantastic family/friend time at Lake Blue Ridge over the holiday and the fun has spilled over into the week. The current inhabitants of my home are two 15 year olds, three 19 year olds, a 21 year old, a 27 year old "boomerang", and the hubs and I. You can imagine the chaos! It's only for a few days, so we'll … [Read more...]
A Little Happy for Your Friday
May 9, 2014 by · 2 Comments
Confession: This week has kicked me in the booty. Lots of good mixed in with the not-so-good/stressful, but just A-LOT. I know you know how I feel... it's May, afterall. And as a mom AND a teacher, I get it going and coming. On Monday, I'll share some pics of what my house looks like right now. I have to put the blinders on to walk out the door and so I will, and I will try not to think about the disarray until I walk back in the door. … [Read more...]
