Fall Home Tour/Entry & Living Room

-

Hi friends!

I am so happy you stopped by to see what I've done around our home for fall.  We built this home in 2021 when we moved from Wisconsin to northern Kentucky to be near our daughter, son in law and new grandson.

Welcome in! Today I am sharing the front entry and our living room spaces. 

As you enter through our front door, on the left side is our stacked stone wall - one of my favorite features of our home.  Copper rust and green is one of the main color schemes in our home year round, so the decor really takes center stage in the fall with just a few additions.


Across from the stone wall you will find a console table overflowing with fall decor and vintage items.





I absolutely adore our fireplace sconces - they use long Edison bulbs and look so cozy at night. They were an inexpensive Home Depot online find.



The little rocker was my mom's and always sat by my parents fireplace. Our nieces, nephews and our daughter all took turns sitting in it over the years. It is so sweet to have it now by my own fireplace knowing our grandson will soon be sitting there. 




This cute secretary desk was an inexpensive Facebook Marketplace find and fills this small space perfectly. The little electric candle is on a timer and adds a homey glow after dark. The fabric jack o lanterns were found at a cute primitive shop while we were on a recent vacation in Gatlinburg, TN.  They were handmade by the shop owner. 


You can see a sneak peek of our main bedroom - it has a cute little "entryway" that is so fun to decorate.  I will share that later this week when we tour the bedrooms.




This - obviously! - is a view from the living room looking into our kitchen. 




That's a wrap on my entry and living room Fall 2022 tour. I hope you will come back soon for my kitchen and laundry room tour.

    Well I can see myself curled p in that comfy chair by your fireplace with that throw over my lap stitching or reading a book by that nice fireplace. Your decor is so welcoming and thanks for sharing! Hope you have a great week and enjoy the Fall weather. Janice.

    Your home is so pretty! I love that you hung decor on the back side of your chest. That's a very clever idea!

Cold Weather Cozy

 Hi friends! It's been cold here in Kentucky and we even got a few inches of snow this morning. Winter has definitely shown up here and around the country! I actually enjoy cold weather and hunkering down in the house with warm sweaters, cozy  blankets and a steamy drink.  I have been working on a little kitchen refresh that I'm hoping to share in a few days. In the meantime, I hope you'll enjoy a few pictures of our living room fireplace area. I hope you all stay warm and have a terrific weekend! I made some homemade chicken soup this morning and it has been simmering away on the stove top - it smells so good on this blustery January day. I'm looking forward to having some for supper tonight!

Cozy Winter Favorites: Wax Melts

Hi friends! I've been thinking about the things that make my house a home and give me all the cozy feels during the cold and sometimes dreary days of winter. I also thought it might be fun to do a little series of posts about them to share with you! Today let's visit one of all time favorite ways I like to cozy up my home, not just in the winter, but year around - wax melts!  There are so many things to like about wax melts, but my number one reason I'm a fan is no open flame! No danger of fire, no dirty soot. Don't get me wrong, I love a good candle (and do use them) but yikes, they sure burn dirty and make a mess when used day after day. And of course, the danger of forgetting to extinguish them and the risk of fire.  I do like the smell - or "throw" - of a candle more than a wax melt, but the wax melts are a great alternative!   Wax melts can be very economical - only a few dollars for a pack that will last you many, many days. They are easy to find - avail...

2024 Will Be Enough

 Hi y'all! Happy New Year to all of you!  I've been thinking a lot about the new year and all the usual resolutions and expectations we all tend to set for ourselves with a 365 day clean slate presented to us each January 1st.  As the Christmas season unfolded, I also have been thinking about the pressures and expectations we tend to put on ourselves to make the Christmas experience "perfect."   We craft, we decorate, we bake, we entertain, we buy and yet, it never seems enough. Social media has a lot to do with this feeling of not doing or being enough. I noticed in so  many blogs and vlogs this past season, where the creators would constantly  apologize that "I need to repaint this room, our Formica countertops need to be replaced, we ran out of time to install new floors, the curtains are all wrong" and on and on and on. Nearly every post or video proclaims some embarrassment or disclaimer that their home was just not quite good enough. Yet, there h...
