I cook I write and I love to decorate. My space is all about the things that make me happy I love the old look and the farmhouse feel .Welcome to this section of my Website .

Here are my new chairs for my old farm table that I just painted over the weekend.
The table came from a 1930 farmhouse.
As for the back porch their is a lot more to do there and I can’t wait to share the final results.

I love our master suite so much and I really love the bed it simply does not get any more farmhouse/ vintage than
this.
A comfortable place to just relax my master bath is like a spa and we love it !

I love my fireplace and even though I live in a warm climate I am still lucky enough to have cold weather days to enjoy a fire in the winter. This copper Bucket I found at a flea market. It was a great find . I love junking that's what I call it. I love flea markets and second hand shops .
We built this home last year and some of the stuff we wanted to do ourselves.
My husband is very handy thankfully and so he has been doing all of the stone work on house..
.The front is done the sides and back are next..
We have many projects that we want l get done in the coming months and I will share them here .

After The Holidays!
Wow that was a fast three months from October to December!
It always seems to fly by but it was an enjoyable Christmas 🎄.
I started to take down some of the small stuff and trees like the week before New Years, I’m glad I did.. I had six tress in total but I saved my big tree for the day after New Years .
I don’t know about you but the house feels naked I almost felt like I needed to run out and buy stuff then I realized the space will feel normal soon enough . Wishing you all a Happy New Year!

Winter
The winter season can be tough to deal with but there are ways to bring some comfort into your home during the cold dreary days when Christmas is over..
I found that bringing the outside in and decorating for winter helps .
I got my ideas from social media and I’m loving it my home feels comfy and cozy.
All I did was go in my own yard and grab branches, pine cones white vases and made some arrangements it looks and feels great.
I kept my twinkle lights and wrapped them on two topiaries that I have on my fireplace . I love the twinkle lights I think they will be up all year long .
These warm touches make winter more tolerable!
So lighten things up add a little greenery a few things from outside and enjoy winter !

Cold January Nights
January is living up to its name as a cold month even for us in the Deep South .
So why not take advantage of the moment and enjoy the fire place I really enjoy the seasons but I really don’t like the cold but who does . So I like most just make the best of it . Knowing spring will be here soon .

diy
I had a pretty gold mirror in the hallway it could be seen from the main area of the house . But it just didn’t fit it.
I won’t take total credit for this idea, although I was going to paint it I just wasn’t sure what to do I thought about a silver and maybe aging it from there .
so as it turned out it became a three step process of just adding three colors using gold , silver , and a touch of black over the top of the mirror giving it a beautiful finished look . I can honestly say I am very happy how it turned out! And it makes a statement now in my house. . Like look at me !!

diy paint project
I love painting furniture I really do !! So this past weekend I painted a table that sits in the laundry room .
I have been wanting to paint this table for a long time but I just never got to it.
I painted it white and gave it an old look . I used chalk paint by Amy Howard it’s great stuff..
Not only can you paint over anything but the dry time is fast . This table was painted and done in one day . Great product!! So many colors to chose from .

The Master Bedroom
There is nothing better than a good nights rest . But I also feel that a master bedroom should not be a busy place or a dark space . I enjoy the light bright open and airy colors year round.
I feel that colors impact the way you sleep and relax.
I would never paint a wall red in my bedroom because it’s a strong color of fight or flight . Red is a pretty color but not one that I would recommend for a blissful night sleep.
I love the pale colors I’ve chosen for my room and I am still searching for that perfect white spread .
Not Eveyone’s taste is the same this is true . But when creating the place of rest take colors into consideration.
In honor of Valentine’s Day 💕 I noticed last night as I took this picture that the vintage soda chair adorned a perfect heart.

Outdoor Living Space
Finally the back porch is done and it’s beautiful !!
We are putting in a black celling fan to keep us cool in the summer.
We use our outdoor space a lot so it’s a great place to spend spring and summer nights. The floor was painted yesterday this whole diy was a long process but so worth it .
The next project is the outdoor gazebo can’t wait to do that .
It will have an outdoor fireplace and the bbq grill will be built in to a outdoor kitchen .
Keep you posted !!
