Spring Decor

Here are a few pictures of my spring decor.  I am joining the Shop Your House party on Finesse Your Nest







Before you say anything....I have two wedding pictures in my entire house and you will see them both

Before




After

I found the bunny in my daughter's room, the container was in the
garage and the moss was in my office.

I love this old pie safe.  It is in my dining room.



Close up



I added moss to the bottom and found a Shabby Chic decorative ball in my
craft room and added it too.


I thought this turned out well and then went to change my table in the foyer.  I found the bunny in the attic with my Easter table decor and the bird was in my office.  I had the nest in my craft room and  the eggs are from JoAnn's last year and the ribbon was from an older project.  The container matched the one in the dining room (I have 3) and a different candle with a small grapevine wreath around it in the birdcage.

Okay a little plain but I have been busy!

So after my "shopping spree"



Full lenth view


I had fun and I hope I gave you some ideas for your home!

Happy decorating~Kelly

Spring Fever

Time to make a change?  Me too.  Spring does it to me every time.  I start thinking of ways to change every room in my house.  I have 3 big projects that I need to get done but they will disrupt my household and I just can't deal with that right now.  So I will day dream about the changes I want until I can handle the huge mess.

so I am thinking about the color brown....but I am not loving the white covered books...seriously?  I have better things to do with my day.

I do dream about a wonderful screened in porch but sadly I don't have one.

Maybe organize a closet or two?

Okay...my closet will never look like this, but it is fun to think about it!

Do you have a Spring project to share?  I would love to hear about it...I will try to finish one up this week and take pictures! 

Happy Spring,
Kelly

Home Staging

Buyers base their interest in your home in the first 20 seconds they walk through the door. We all know that first impressions are everything! The housing market is very competitive and you want your house to stand out from the rest. The point of staging is to appeal to the most potential buyers possible.  How you live in your home is one thing, how you sell your house is another.

Here is one of my recent staging projects.
