Vintage America Party Decor
The mister and I have been hunting vintage finds since before we met. Our hearts are naturally nostalgic for old things - especially things that characterize what American life was like several decades ago. Is there anything more nostalgic than American vintage finds? I love how that phrase rolls off the tongue. American... Vintage... Finds. I think that should be the next HGTV show, don't you? It probably would be the name of this blog if I could start all over again. Ha! We are … [Read more...] about Vintage America Party Decor

My Favorite Hello Doormats
I feel like "Hello" is a more casual "welcome". Would you agree? It seems to say, Hi, thanks for stopping by. Come on in. But don't be surprised if my countertops are full of crap and my floors are dirty. Since you're at my back door, I know that we are either related or you are a dear friend of mine - and you know that we don't use our front door very often. You also know that my lab will be barking annoyingly excitedly as you enter, but that he's all bark. Because he LOVES everyone. You … [Read more...] about My Favorite Hello Doormats
Easy Tips for Decorating Your Fireplace
Sometimes I have house envy. To those of you with a fireplace mantle to decorate for the holidays, I'm so envious. I love my old house and all its character. But, this old house didn't come with a fireplace. What's not to love about a fireplace? Cozy fires in the winter and a fantastic little space to decorate for the season. Growing up, we even roasted marshmallows occasionally in my family's fireplace. So, my sister let me borrow her fireplace instead. She lives in a 60s ranch house … [Read more...] about Easy Tips for Decorating Your Fireplace
Vintage Fall Decorating Ideas
"Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall." - F. Scott Fitzgerald We had some really exciting and unexpected happenings this fall (more on that later) so I'm a little late to the fall home tour party. But I still wanted to share of my vintage home vignettes with you. If there's one thing we know and love around here, it's decorating with vintage finds. So, sit back and relax. Imagine the scent of wood smoke in air, a crisp and cool breeze swirling the leaves, and maybe … [Read more...] about Vintage Fall Decorating Ideas
Affordable Boy Room Decor from Amazon
So, I have a child in junior high now. Junior high. How did that happen? More still, how did my little boy grow up in the blink of an eye? And while I will miss things like his obsession with sharks, how he giggled when he drove his power wheels jeep in the driveway, or how he used to call my mom Bam-Boo instead of grandma - I couldn't be prouder of the young man he is becoming. I also love it when my children start to explore their own styles and express themselves through their choices. … [Read more...] about Affordable Boy Room Decor from Amazon
DIY Graduation Party Ideas
One of my most favorite jobs next to being a mama to my two boys is being an aunt to all 7 of my nieces and nephews. When I met my husband he was already an uncle to this adorable four-year-old who also stole my heart the first time I met her. It was very clear she adored her uncle YaYa - an endearing nickname she created for him. I loved watching them together and knew from that moment that this guy was going to be a great dad someday. Fast forward a few years... and I still wonder how it … [Read more...] about DIY Graduation Party Ideas
