Summer décor and DIY ideas.
Y’all. I was instantly drawn to Amanda the moment I read her words about her hot husband plowin’ up potatoes on their farm. Not only is she a wife to her farmer man she is a mama to SIX little ones, and she can write some beautiful truth. I got to meet her and pray…
Summer is in full blown play mode here and the temperature gauge is the biggest tattletale of all. Y’all it’s hot! We have been blowin’ and goin’ this summer, playing, swimming and just tooling around town. I am fully in love with summer and the lax schedule it provides. Today I am sharing a fun…

DIY Buffalo Check Pillows Buffalo check is a whole thing right now and I am loving it! You may have seen the roadside recliners I (well my mom) reupholstered in buffalo check? They are fabulous. I wanted to bring a little buffalo check to the outdoor mix for the 4th of July, but I didn’t…
“Mom!!! I’m bored” Might as be nails on a chalkboard for most moms, you know this phrase is coming your way this summer. We beg from freedom from the demanding schedule the school year brings and within a few weeks (possibly days) the famous phrase rears it’s ugly head. This year I’m attempting to be…
We never use our front door. No one does unless they are a new guest to the house…and then they only use it once. EVERYONE uses the side door to our kitchen. It was so dull and boring so I wanted to liven it up with some fresh potted plant décor. As I planted I…
Our yard is a magical place. Sometimes I wonder if I’m the only one that gets excited about all the treasures that rotate through this little piece of land we call home. Do other people love their yard as much as I do? When I look around I see that our yard is more than a…
Summer is a fun and cheery time to be outside doing outside things! I wanted to incorporate the outside into a fun patriotic DIY project that anyone could do for fun 4th of July decor This month my Junk Visionary friends are all bringing you a fresh new patriotic project to enjoy. My husband and…
It’s officially summer according to me. June 1st is the starting line to summer in my head. The kids still have a few days of school left and the solstice calendar won’t declare it for a few more weeks, but today is my go day. To kick it off I’m sharing the Hunt & Host…
Vacation memories can make gorgeous décor, this driftwood tablescape is a summer vacation memory… An easy summer tablescape that anyone can make is what we’re talking about today. Not much else signals summer than the beach. Any body of water really – lake, pool or river. It’s time to take a dip and escape the…
My oldest child is my only girl. She loves to bake, paint, act and do puzzles. She is whitty, adores playing in the mud and turns obnoxiously golden tan in the summer. Obviously I think she is so stinkin’ cute. She loves to take pictures, especially since she got my mom’s old IPhone. Which is not used as…
You should be just about deep enough into summer when the “I’m bored” and “we don’t have anything to do” cries start flying. Swimming has lost it’s glamour, the heat (or rain in our case) has set in and the excitement of a relaxed schedule has lost it’s luster. This is when I always resort…
We are all jumpin for joy over here for summertime. The list of goodness is so yummy and fun: A good book to read. Baseball. Sand between your toes. Cold lemonade gulped down in silly straws. Cut off jean shorts. A warm towel to dry off after a cool swim. Road trips. Especially road trips…
