Happy Easter!

Hi Everyone!  We wanted to take a moment and wish everyone a wonderful Easter.  The true meaning of Easter is about the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ.  Have a blessed Easter!

John 11:25-26 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.

Spring Sofa Table

Hello everyone! How is your week going? Ours is flying by, but we are still cold!  I saw some flurries today and just shook my head in disbelief.  It is only going to be 17 tonight! Yikes! We did get some sunshine yesterday and today, so we took advantage and did some decorating!

I am trying to get my living room set up for Spring!  I use a lot of the color green in this room.  I love the green with the black and how nice it stands out.  I also used apples, berry balls, and artichokes on the table.  We like to use different hughes of greens to break the colors up a little.
I wanted to tie the colors together from the table and walls, so I placed my pillows on the chairs and tied them with satin ribbon to dress it up. 

I filled the metal cream baskets with  hanging greenery and added some moss balls.



I love these berry balls!  


This vase is wrapped in twine are so different and unique. 



I still have a lot to do in this room.  The mantel, a few tables, some shelving, and I need to paint some tables! Lots of work to do I better get busy!  Hope you all have a wonderful rest of the week and a great weekend!
Thanks for stopping by!

Coffee Table

Hi everyone!  How is your week going?  We are staying busy with the shop and we have put all of our Fall and Christmas orders in!  Crazy, but it will be here before we know it!  Today we wanted to share a quick and simple idea for a coffee table.  

I placed a glass vase and two boxwood plants in a black wooden box.


On this vase I took some burlap and wrapped it around the bottom of the, then tied a burlap bow around it.  I also filled the vase with some greens I cut from a hanging swag.  I let them come up around the candle.

I took a grapevine wreath and wrapped it with some artificial grapevine. Then added some moss balls in the middle. I love this grapevine!



I placed a bird on a couple of different decorating magazines.




Quick and simple! Hope you all have a great week! Thanks for stopping by!

Spring Mantel

Hi Everyone! How many of you like to decorate a mantel?  We do!  I think one of our favorite things to decorate is a mantel.  Maybe it is because it is the focal point of the room and it brings everything together.  We are lucky enough to have more than one to play with!  We also change them often.  So today we wanted to share you guessed it a Spring Mantel!

It is always best to start with the larger items when decorating a mantel like this.  We placed the mirror and crackle urn light towards the end.  The box is an old sewing box. 


To add your own custom arrangement is so easy!  We used some fern sprays and a hanging green spray.  First you want to place the hanging green on one end and let it flow.  You want to use the empty end of the mantel since you already have the larger items on the other side.


We also placed a candle in the middle.  We placed the fern sprays on the other side to balance our the sewing box.


See how easy!?  We added some artichokes to the box to break up the greenery and add some dimension.  The last thing we did for the sewing box was add a branch pick to the back of the box.






Now you can add other items with different heights to balance the entire mantel out.  



We always like to decorate the hearth since we won't be using the fireplace for spring/summer.
We kept the same color scheme and added some Easter touches!




Love these tulips!


We added some glitter to these eggs and love the way they turned out!  We put these in the cloche.




Thanks for stopping by and happy decorating!

Spring Bookshelves


Hi Everyone!  Well I hate to start to post out with saying it is STILL snowing here!!!!  We are so ready for Spring it is crazy!  We are trying to decorate our houses for spring to bring us out of the long winter blues!  We should to see a warm up this weekend and can't wait. Today we wanted to share a shelving unit decorated for spring/everyday.  I always seem to have trouble decorating these bookshelves, but my mom and I did it together and I liked the way it turned out! When I say we did it together I really mean she did it while I took notes! haha  We got my topiaries and greenery out and went to town!


I always use the battery operated candles on these bookshelves because they give perfect lighting and warmth to the whole room.  I love them on here.







We placed some fern pics on the bookshelf to add warmth.  I love these ferns, they are great to make potted plants out of.  I made a few for these shelves.




We filled the long metal basket with some greens and moss balls.




On this wire finial we wrapped some greens and let them hang to add some color.





We tied a burlap bow around three candles. Make things different!







We love greenery! We decorate so much with greenery, you can see the mantel is full of it but I am not done with that yet, so don't look to close!  I want to make it flow with the shelves, and make the room cozy with all of the greenery.  We ordered some birds and bird cages that haven't come in yet so we will keep you posted on what we will do with those! We hope you all have a wonderful week.  Thanks so much for stopping by!
