Spring Easter Front Porch

Hi there! I know Easter was a few days ago, but here is a quick look at the Front Porch decorated for Spring and Easter. In another week and it will all change once again! I wanted a bright and cheery front porch. I went with a Turquoise Blue and Purple color story, and rounded it out with the usual Silver Galvanized metals and Light Natural wood tones. I collected from my stash all of my Purple...

Plants, Flowers, and More! Oh, my…

Hello. I have been having a hard time lately, but there has been a small amount of sunshine through the clouds. We will wait and see what is to come. It is exciting to have hope again. Maybe this is the start of the big change I have envisioned for myself. Todays post is a collection of photos of all of the pretty flowers, plants and accessories I have used on the Back yard Patio this Summer....

Plastic Flamingos? Love them? Hate them?

Hi There! Thank you so much for stopping by. I have been sharing pretty little spots in the back yard that I have decorated on the cheap. Lets look at another little spot... I love Flamingos. My first car had a pink Flamingo in the back seat window. At my old house, I put plastic Flamingos around my daughter's playhouse. I love Flamingos. I know many people HATE Flamingos. They think they are...

Shopping bags to Pennate Banner for the Patio

Hi There! I am so happy that you're here. Lately I have been showing a few outdoor projects that I have done to decorate my back yard on the cheap! Easy projects that I think anyone can do. Today I have a super simple project that took very little time at all. Here is a view of the patio on the side of the garage in the back yard. For the last two years I have had the Mexican plastic Picado...

A Lovely little Vignette in the Living Room

Hi There! I am so glad you dropped by! I was sitting in the living room, watching TV. Losing brain cells, I'm sure. And I just loved how the light was hitting this small vignette I have on the top of a small bookcase. Whats a girl to do? Get out her camera and go take some pictures. This is the top of a little bookcase I have had for years. It sits between the TV armoire and the window. The...

An English Garden Front Porch

Hi There! I am so glad you're here. I have been craving some traditional decor lately. So, I am switching up some of my porch furniture with "new" paint colors. Traditional, neutral paint colors. Crazy, right? This time around, I did my take on a English Garden front porch. Dark Traditional colors for the furniture and pink Petunia flowers in the pots. This is my wicker table, that I pulled out...

A pretty spot by the Garage

Another little spot in the back yard. Small, but I have made it cute and colorful. When we moved in, this spot had a few little waxy perennials. The bricks were there to outline the little bed next to the walkway. A nice start. This spring I moved the stepping stone I made years ago here. I like how the orange glass is almost the same color as the bricks. I also planted some cute little light...
