Our farmhouse kitchen needed a bit of subtle wall art. Nothing too fancy because the space is definitely not fancy. My goal in decorating this home is to add in vintage elements that perhaps bring back a glimpse of the time in which it was built (which is supposedly about 100 years ago). I've slowly...

I found a lovely, vintage, floral sheet at a thrift store many months ago. Since that time I've waited to find a project suited for this fabric. I didn't want to use it on just anything since I may never come across anything like it again! I would love to have a whole sheet set... Continue Reading →
Homemaking requires a lot of time in the kitchen! I find that even if I'm not cooking or baking I still spend the majority of my day in this space. I'd say it's the hub of our home. Whether its whipping together muffins or pancakes for breakfast, mixing up my homemade all purpose cleaner for... Continue Reading →
We purchased our little chicks a few months ago and started Our Chicken Adventure. Since then they've been living in a homemade brooder located in the mudroom. Chicks really don't need much to thrive. The list of Everything You Need to Bring Chicks Home is quite short, but a coop quickly becomes a necessity as... Continue Reading →
I've wanted light and airy curtains in our kitchen window for awhile now. I am so thankful for this large window that permits so much light to enter the kitchen area. It is such a blessing! While I plan to keep the curtains open for most of the day, I like the idea of having... Continue Reading →
Harvest season will be upon us before we know it. Many pounds of tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, herbs, sweet corn, beans, and more will make their way from the garden and into the farmhouse. Sometimes I like to utilize an old basket for carrying all the produce inside, but this year I decided I wanted to... Continue Reading →
You'll soon discover, if you frequent my blog, that drop cloth projects are pretty popular around here, so I wanted to provide this resource as a place to learn the basics about this fabric. Drop cloth is one of my favorite fabrics to use for projects around my home. I've used it to make banners,... Continue Reading →
I so enjoy this time of year. The flowers by my porch are blooming, hummingbirds are frequenting my feeder, yellow finches are singing their pretty songs, fireflies are filling the night, and the garden is showing signs of life. It truly is the ordinary and Little Things in Life that bring such joy. The Quiet... Continue Reading →
Our hummingbirds have returned, and the sight of them makes my heart so happy. I have the hummingbird feeder set up outside the kitchen window so I can catch a glimpse of them while I cook or do the dishes. Hummingbirds have always seemed like busy and elegant little creatures. I find a lot of... Continue Reading →
I enjoy the look of a collected home. One filled with old items that serve a purpose and are pleasant to the eye. A few months ago I was able to go on a little antiquing trip by myself (This was a huge deal with a newborn!). I enjoyed getting out on my own for... Continue Reading →
