So, we’ve lived in our new-to-us house for about a year and a half. Soooo, that means the homemaker of this house started eyeing this room and that room and thinking about how this or that might work better or make an area flow better. The homemaker also had compiled a list of a few […]
In Which I Talk About Spoon Rests and Toothpick Holders
I love getting ideas from other people. In large part, because I am, only on the very rare occasion, inspired with a totally original idea. On Friday, I posted this question on A Delightful Glow’s facebook page: Any recommendations for a spoon rest? I’d like one that a wooden spoon easily lays on. My […]
Kitchen Rugs
In one of my {Hello Monday} posts, I posted a photo of one of my kitchen rugs. I knew I wanted two rugs for my kitchen. One to put in front of the refrigerator and one to go in front of the sink. I really hadn’t shopped or given a lot of thought to what […]
Teaparty Time {Hello Monday}
I have a few photos of the teaparty that I had when my mother and sister were here at Christmastime. It was very simple, but it is always fun to pull pretty dishes out of my china cupboard and use them. I could definitely enjoy operating a teahouse.{in my spare time 😉 } This teaparty […]

My DIY Mirror Frame Project
Can you believe I actually did a DIY project? I’m surprised myself. But every now and then I do have an inspiration and I attempt to carry it out. Our basement bathroom had a mirror in it. This mirror had a goldish frame and I wouldn’t say it was my favorite. I didn’t necessarily like it […]
The Fabulous Foliage of Fall
God’s autumn decor in nature is absolutely breathtaking. I snapped a few pictures of some of the pretty colors in my neighborhood. The thing is, my photos don’t begin to do justice to the vibrancy of the colors. We certainly don’t have the display and variety of colors that the eastern states do, but I […]
My Little Bit of Fall Decor
I pulled my glittered pumpkins out last weekend! I don’t have a lot of fall decor, but it was fun to dig it out. The idea for the glittered pumpkins came from here a few years ago. I loved the idea and it looked like something I could handle, so I actually made them!! Andrea’s […]

“T” is For..
I recently rearranged my son’s room. I know it doesn’t really make sense, since we will hopefully be moving in a couple of months. But, it was needing something. More for me than him. It doesn’t bother him for his room to be quite a mess. When we rearranged, I took some pictures off his […]
Turquoise Blue Paint
My daughter’s father told her she could paint her room in our “new” house any color she wanted. After some deliberation she decided she wanted it to be turquoise. But, she wanted a turquoise blue, not a turquoise green. She had an American Girl book checked out of the library. The back of the book happened to be […]
