    Spring interiors: bliss indoors and out

    Spring Interiors

    The weather has been so wishy-washy. Teasing us with a 70 degree day, and then bringing us back down by dropping to 50 overnight! But, the leaves are finally on the trees, and the days are longer – so it’s safe to say Spring is here.

    I love the longer days…so beautiful

I do this, but my tea tins aren’t water tight so I put a juice glass with water inside the tea tin and just put the flowers in the glass. The second image is a cute idea: use some glass bottles (they don’t have to match), wrap some jute or hemp around them – and you get a lovely handpicked, country centerpiece.

    When I was a kid, we out outside every evening in the summer. We didn’t have a patio, so we just set up chairs and a table right out in the yard

    Inspiration for my wedding table settings…

    I hope everyone had an amazing, wonderful holiday.  I also want to send out a big thanks to all the lovely and supportive comments I received after my post about my horse’s death.

    Time flies and my wedding is less than 5 months away.  We have most of the “big” things squared away.  Now it is time to focus on the fun part – the details.  Below is the inspiration I’ve gathered for my table settings.

    As some of you may know, my wedding will be at the Mathwig Estate Barn.  The look will be rustic, but I want it to be very “clean” rustic.  Not too shabby chic or vintage.

     The table above is probably my favorite.  I found a similar fabric which I’ll use for the tables.

    In the woods behind my parent’s farm there are piles of old glass bottles left from previous tenants.  I have been collecting and cleaning them over time, and I plan on clustering between 8 and 10 of them in various sizes on each table, then fill them peonies (or a peony look-alike)…

    Our china is basic white.

    Candles are no longer allowed in the barn, so I will be buying A LOT of flameless votives.

  • Some of my favorite Thanksgiving decorating ideas

    Some of my favorite Thanksgiving decorating ideas

    I can’t believe how quickly the holidays come and go. I feel like Thanksgiving comes before I even have time to think about decorating, so I made it a point to get on the ball early this year. Here are some decorating ideas and Thanksgiving decor I’m liking:

    Greenery as centerpieces.  Sage in Ball jars make the tablescape look fresh.

    I tend to like seasonal decor in unorthodox colors, and the amount of white in this Thanksgiving set up rally caught my eye.  I especially like the way they’ve set up the sideboard with yummy deserts on display.

    Check out the pretty felt leaves as a table runner in light blue.

    Stamped napkins are a nice and personal little touch.

    How do you plan on decorating this Thanksgiving?

    I have to paint our table – it’s so sad right now.  I love how the feet of this one look dipped in gold!
