Today I teamed up with some of my blogging buddies for the January thrift find/diy challenge! You can read all about my project on my blog. Blog info is in my bio and I’ve linked all the other participants on my blog so you can check out what they have done!! Challenge hosted by Tara @stilettosandshiplap and Emily @le.cultivateur My project this month was painting up these two louvered doors and styling them!! Swipe across to see some of the pics I took!! I have to say that I really think they have transformed my room!! The two doors only costed $20 . I originally purchased four doors and had two in my shed for a long time!! The other two I used in my bedroom!! I hand made the wreaths a few years back and decided to use them here along with the little Cupid wings which I used on a styled tray in my bedroom!! This year I’m going to try and move things around the house.. I usually get a spot for something and then it never gets moved!!! I had these corbols hid under my bed for a while , so now I finally found a place for them to hold my candles!! Below you can check out the ladies I teamed up with! They always have the most amazing projects and so talented!! They deserve a shout out!! @le.cultivateur @stilettosandshiplap @just.another.farmhouse @clochesandlavender @thehousehouseblog @colorjoyinteriors @sweet_southern_grace @thisfulllife5 #stylingmynest #showusyourvelveteen #stylingtheseasons #stylingmyhome #diyhomedecor #chalkpaintedfurniture #shabbychichome #frenchfurniture
Ok everyone I’m so super excited today because I’m ripping up the ugly tiles in our house , with the help of the hubby of course.!! Our kitchen should be arriving this week yahooo!!! Video taken by my hubby without my consent haha!! He knows how much I hate photos and videos .. how and ever the excitement just got me.. Hubby just happened to be rained off work which made me a happy camper because this was such a hard job .. The tile adhesive was super hard to remove.. and while we were at the tile removal I also removed the ugly brick around the kitchen cabinet.. y’all know I’m the type of gal that likes to get down deep in the dirt and I love. Demo yay!! I’ve two videos and a few pics so swipe across if you want to see a girl in action!! #womenandpowertools #myfixerupper
Sipping my wine on my porch tonight and the one thing I love the most about this porch has to be the lighting system we put in. At the flick of a switch I can change the mood at any moment from warm white to blue to red or to green!! I’m an old school gal and keep my decorations up until January 7th little Christmas Day!! And I’ll stretch Christmas to as long as I can because I love it so much , this year I’ll take them down on January 5th at least the outdoor ones will come down and I’ll work on the inside .. Anyone else like me that keeps up until that date??
Finally got my hubby out of the house so I could snap. Few shots!!! This had been a busy time for us but I’m enjoying our few moments we get to relax ..
This beautiful present of a candle from my dear friend! I hate when a photo doesn’t do it justice!! Thank you Sue!!
Finally got my Christmas/birthday present up and running! Yay!! My loving and amazing hubby surprised me with a Cricut machine... I’ve literally wanted one of these forever and I’ve literally no idea how to use it!! So I suppose I’ve just got myself a new New Years resolution, how to use a Cricut.. I’m so excited!!! What a great unexpected present!!
🌲🌲🌲
Finally a day or two to just mellow out and sit back!! 😊
Just about to chill out on our porch!
This is the first Christmas that I’ve been away from home almost everyday!! Between visiting friends being on a cruise for almost two weeks and getting g home a few days before Christmas then trying to visit more friends and having family and friends over , I haven’t seemed to sit down at all and I definitely haven’t had time to go around my home taking photos this year.. This Christmas has definetly been different from all other Christmas past.. it’s shaken me from my usual routines , it’s been very different but good .. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas 🤗🌲
Well my last two weeks have been cruising on this beautiful ship surrounded by beautiful decor!! It’s good to be home though but now I’ve got to run around doing the last bit of shopping!!
Don’t you just love when the kiddos just hang around the tree!! No better feeling than seeing the sparkle in there eyes... Bribgs me back to when I was a little girl , every Christmas you would find me hanging around the tree!!!
Up on the blog today you can read all about how I put this dollar tree together for this months challenge with my blogging buddies!! My blog link is in my bio... All the links to all the other participants are at the end of my blog post and they are totally amazing!! Our beautiful. Host Terrie always comes up with something amazing and this month it was a dollar tree! If your looking for inspiration you need to go follow this lovely lady... go check her page out @decorateandmorewithtip she is so inspirational and her tutorials are great!! I have to say I really enjoyed this months challenge but then again, of course I would because I LOVE Christmas! 😊
Seriously just wanna cry right now!! While everyone on here seems to have a handle on their Christmas decor and let me stress they seem to have a beautiful handle on their Christmas decor , I’m going around like a headless chicken trying to figure out what to use and what not to use.. I’m known as the Christmas queen but this year I’m the christmas mess!! I can’t get it together at all!! It’s like I have a mental block all of a stupid sudden!! My problem is I think if I just relax and have a cup of tea that as I sip I’ll figure it all out!! It certainly isn’t working this year for me at all!! I’m at the stage of giving up!! What the hec!! Oh well 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️
Finally started my Christmas decorations.. I’ve never put my tree or any Christmas decor up this early... Started the tree tonight which means I’m up bright and early in the morning to get it finished and get moving on all the other decor too!! I won’t be putting up two indoor trees this year!! So I’ve opted for the traditional red and gold rather than the white and rose gold that I had last year!! It was a hard choice as I love the two tees but I’m a sucker for a traditional tree!! Anyways I’ve started and I’m excited!! I just can’t believe that it’s this time of year again.. Where does time go too!!

Is anyone with me on this...I’m just about to sit and relax with my cuppa, This has been such a long and busy week for me. I’ve been decluttering my home as tomorrow it gets us appraisal/ valuation, even tho we haven’t finished all the renovations as yet! We just want to see if it’s worth while doing the extra works on this property as we are eager to move, and if it’s not worth it we will come to an end putting anymore touches to this home!! On top of this I’ve finally got all my Christmas presents bought and wrapped !!! Even the ones gone to Ireland.. I’ve been a busy bee this week and I’m over the moon with all those Christmas presents done and dusted!!! Yay!!! Well until the real estates come and go this will be my only Christmas decor for now .. Come on the weekend!!! My tree will be up soooooo excited!!! Back to my tea!!! 🤗
I made this little pumpkin out of a book about five years ago.. Pic is from last years decor .. I almost forgot about this diy until I was flicking through my photos.. It’s stuck in a box somewhere around the house or the shed!!! I might try find it!!! 🎃😊
