Summer Decor in our Family Room

A month into it and we are feeling like Summer now!  Hot days and warm evenings.  I'm trying not to complain about the heat, as I sure do love the air conditioning indoors.

Hello! ...my cute "hello" pillow found at my local Ross store is a little greeting in our family room. I couldn't resist it, I just had to have it, same for the large wall art piece above that we purchased at Kikrland's!

I did a little restyling for summer and I'm happy with the results in our family room ...which should be called the living room since we do more living in this room, than the actual living room! Especially with the softness and comfort of our microfiber sofa.

It's nice how just a few simple changes can refresh a space!

***Feeling honored and pleased to have had my image featured over at Kirkland's Instagram!!!***

~That made my day!😁

 Thanks again, Kirkland's!

Home Sweet Home - Home Decor

"Home is where the heart is!  Our home sweet home."  I put my heart into my home.
I also put other hearts into it! ...I love hearts!

I also love how the sunlight fills this little corner with great light!  A few changes to this little corner, makes me smile!

I used a few items from around the house to freshen up this corner of our breakfast area!  The shutter, tray/chalkboard with 'home sweet home' written on it, and the heart with bells are all thrift store finds.   I had the canvas 'Home is where the heart is' picture tucked away in another room.  It worked perfectly for this corner 

On the wall above is a few thrifted items and newly found treasures! The thrifted, three dollar, beveled mirror got a makeover using chalk paint. I knew it would be perfect for my display shelf!

~ Hope you have a beautiful day wherever you are!

Summer Decor - Our Dining Room

With it being summer I like to keep my decor simple, light and bright!

The sunlight pours in through our tall foyer window and it shines into our dining room on my pretty dishes and our beautiful chandelier.

I love all of the sparkle!

I enjoy a mix of pretty things. Things that make me smile. This makes me smile!!!

Here I've used a bit of bronze, some gold, white flowers, and lots of sparkle! Definitely things I love!

I enjoy finding/collecting cut glass and crystal, I'm always on the hunt for more. It's the jewelry to my home.

My family has gotten in on this and they find items I'll love too! My husband gave me the beautiful crystal bowl, most of the other items here were thrifted!

Decorate with what you love, what makes you happy, and what makes you smile!!!

Patriotic Decor~Tiered Tray Makeover~

Well Hello July!  It seems to have arrived so quickly.  Summer is definitely in full swing!

Tomorrow we celebrate America's Independence Day!

***Happy Fourth of July!***

I recently painted this tied tray, using chalk paint. I'm loving the way it looks now!

I found a few fun and patriotic items at target's dollar spot to dress it up for the holiday! - The painted red, white & blue wooden Stars, U S A, and Flag scarf.  A few dollars and just a few minutes of my time, and I had created a cute display for our patriotic holiday!

***Enjoy a safe and happy Fourth of July!***
