Buffalo Check Tablescape For Fall
Happy Monday everyone! I hope my Buffalo Check Fall Table makes your day even brighter. I’m so happy fall is here. I spent the weekend decorating my front porch and putting this fun table together. With finds from Kirklands, Hobby Lobby, Dollar General, and Walmart.com, I was able to create this black, cream, orange, and leopard tablescape that can last from now all the way through November! These dishes are so versatile in that you can pair them with so many different colors all year...
2021 Floral Landscape (Part 2)
Happy Wednesday everyone!! Today is the second part of my 2021 Floral Landscape design along with some helpful information I’ve learned along the way. Normally I plant and then wait a year to blog about it since perennials and shrubs take awhile to bloom and spread out but this year I couldn’t wait. Our goal was to finish our shed and start on the landscape around the shed (more to see next year) which we accomplished but I’ve had a few people ask me about deer resistant plants. In this...
2021 Floral Landscape
This is a re-post from last year but with spring here, it has me thinking of different ways of planting this year. I thought I'd put this post out again for those of you who are looking for planting ideas especially if you want a colorful yard and links to where I purchased my plants and flowers. My goal was to bring in the hummingbirds and butterflies and I'm proud to say I made it happen! We had the most adorable baby hummingbird and it's momma last year and many different butterflies. I...
Casual Tablescape
Happy Monday everyone! I’ve been wanting to post my casual tablescape for a while now. I’m one of those people who love seeing my table put together as if we are having company over for dinner. My kitchen table is a combination of items that I have purchased in my travels from West Virginia to Missouri and back. I like the layers, height, and combinations of similar natural colors while combining my love for decorating my kitchen with roosters. One of the things I love the most is how...
How To Navigate My Website
Happy Friday everyone! Navigating My Website and 2021 Bucket List. We are kicking off the weekend with an update to my previous post “Kicking Off 2021 With A Pudding Dessert And TAL’s Bucket List”. Hind sight being 2020, I should have separated the two blog posts which I might do later but, none the less, I’ve accomplished some items off my 2021 list that I want to share with you. One being many updates to my website which lends me to believe that I should talk about how to navigate TAL’s...
Pet Safe Paint
Happy Monday everyone! Who is ready for home projects? We are and we are checking items off our "to-do" list!! Pet Safe Paint...Spring is here and we are working on getting our home projects done which means painting and more painting! From the outside to the inside, I’ve got little projects everywhere. I love Sherwin Williams paint and was so happy when I talked to our local Sherwin Williams about using non-toxic paint in our home. They assured me that what I was using was safe for Jake...
Spring Tablescape
Happy Wednesday everyone! It’s a beautiful week to put together a spring table! The sun is shining and it’s 80 degrees here in WV! I’ve decided to plant another herb garden this year (see my 1st herb garden last year) and I’m going bigger this year so wish me luck! This table is a combination of dinnerware I’ve had and have used in previous tablescapes. These herb and floral dishes are made of bamboo which make them safe to eat on, environmentally safe, easy to clean, and can be put in...
Easter Tablescape 2021
Happy Wednesday everyone! I’m so excited to show you my Easter Tablescape this year. I combined the dishes and cone sculptures from my New Year’s Eve Tablescape with items from last year’s Easter Tablescape I put together and created a new table for Easter 2021. I changed out the old napkins for these from TJMaxx for a silkier, shinier look to match the plates from Home Goods. There are several pictures all with different lighting taken at different times of the day. The sun rises in...
How To Make Silk Flowers Look Real
Happy Monday everyone! We had a gorgeous weekend here in WV full of sunshine and spring temps so I thought this bright flower bouquet of yellow would be appropriate for Monday’s post. This St. Patrick’s Day floral arrangement is a little late but it’s still March so I’m good :-). Plus it's always good to know how to make a silk arrangement look real! I posted a few weeks ago, my easy to do St. Patrick’s Day Tablescape (HERE) and promised this would follow. Floral arrangements are so was...
