Decorate for spring with this easy-to-make, primitive-style, chocolate bunny bar DIY Easter sign. This past weekend I pulled down my Valentine's decor. My cute little love gnome and simple washi tape art have been boxed up and placed in storage. As I shelved the remainder of my winter decor, I started to unbox a bit of my spring (mostly Easter) decor. There's still quite a bit of snow outside. In fact it's not unusual for the last snow storm of the year to occur in March or April here in Utah, so pulling out all the spring decor may be a bit premature, but I can't help myself. ... read more

Looking for a fun DIY to incorporate into your holiday decor? Don't miss this fun Sleigh Ride Christmas Sign. It's a simple project when made with the accompanying cut file stencil that's available for download. I get asked all of the time if I purchase all new holiday decor every year.

Deck the halls with this cute Kringle's Cookie Co. Cut File and DIY Christmas Kitchen Sign. This easy, inexpensive project will be all the decor you need in the kitchen this holiday season! This post contains affiliate links. I hate to admit it, we're one week out from Halloween and I am 100% ready to move on to Christmas. I could blame social media.

DIY Sleepy Hallow Halloween Sign
Hi friends! I can't believe it is October already! Bring on the Halloween Decor! Today I'm sharing this cute DIY Sleepy Hallow Halloween Sign with you. I was recently hanging out with one of my best blogging buddies and we happened to be thrifting it up at our local Goodwill store. I came across this pretty typical Halloween sign that I'm sure was from a craft store as a pre-made sign you could purchase. It just wasn't my style but I liked the jagged cut wood and the possibility of what it could be. So I snagged it for $3. I knew one thing for sure, I wanted a black and white sign. So ... read more

Let me put down the glue gun so I can type with both hands. 4.Where do you get your inspiration? Places more random than you might imagine. 5.What is your ... read more

Summer Home Tour
Stop what you're doing, grab a sweet drink and come check out all of the fun patriotic touches in this summer home tour! I cannot tell a lie. The house is not 100% ready for summer. It should be were well into the second week of June. The temperatures are typically soaring this time of year and I am firmly planted by the side of the pool. Instead we've had snow in the last month. As a result, I've been a bit slow to transition. I can tell you that my "internet famous" porch (see here, here and here for designs that have gone viral) is undergoing a HUGE transformation. One ... read more
Ticker Tape Fourth of July Garland
Love a good pop of confetti? Capture the excitement of a ticker tape parade with this simple Fourth of July garland. The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays. I have a bit of a penchant for the patriotic. The decor in my very first home was all very "Americana." Styles have changed and to some degree I've moved on, but I get excited every summer when it's time to pull out the red, white and blue. Yesterday I shared my nautical themed Fourth of July mantel as a part of a blog hop with some friends (you can check it out here). Several of the items I have on ... read more

The mantel in my family room is one of my favorite spots to decorate and one of my least favorite spots to try and photograph.

I've been encouraged by a few friends and today I am joining in on The Happy Housie's Seasonal Simplicity series and sharing my ... read more
