Living Room Tweaks

Hey guys! I have made some changes to our main living room. Join me for a tour!
If you remember I showed you my baker's rack a few months ago, that I had behind our sofa, well I moved it  next to the fireplace and love it here so much more! I have a hutch that I am going to paint and put in the place that the baker's rack was before.



I made this fall frame last year.


 Of course every room in the downstairs part of the house has a rooster! :)


 I added some acorn beads and a pumpkin to this jar.


 I showed you this Tuscan picture a few posts back, which I found at Big Lots for 12 dollars! Love it!


Here's a view of the room, Walter wanted to say hi!


 I have added something to the fireplace, do you see it?


Yep it's Buzz Lightyear! LOL Jackson loves Toy Story. We found the set at Target for 6 dollars and I just pushed them into a fake pumpkin.


The last time I showed you this room, I showed you this coffee table. You can see what it used to look like here. I painted it black and distressed it, I love the way it turned out. It's actually really nice to have it distressed with a little one around. Not worried about it getting messed up.


 Here's a close up of some of the distressing. I plan to paint this hutch that I have black and distress it as well. I will be starting that soon! 


Well, that's it for today guys! Have a great week!!

Come Fall Into My Front Porch!

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been around for a few weeks, time seems to just go by so fast! I have added some fall decor to the front porch, join me for a tour! All of these pictures are taken at night, the porch during the day gets a ton of sunlight, so it's pretty hard to photograph!


 I made the mesh wreaths using a floral foam wreath form, two different colors of mesh which I got from Joann's, Fall riboon, leaves and pumpkins. I used floral pins or greening pins to secure everything into place. 


 I hung them on command hooks, the second outdoor door doesn't open. We can't seem to find the key, so there is no way of hanging a wreath hanger.


I made the pumpkin topiaries, I have been wanting to make some since last year. I really would have liked them to be sitting on urns, but I couldn't find any so pots will have to do for this year!


I placed them on grapevine wreaths I added some mesh to the wreaths with leaf garland, to attach them all together I cut a hole in the bottom of each pumpkin and then hot glued them on and added leaf garland. I added a bow on  top with some fall ribbon. I think they turned out cute! I had some left over mesh from the wreaths, but didn't have enough of each color to add both, so I just added one color on each.


 Here's Mr. & Mrs. Scarecrow! :) I got them a few years ago at Joann's, I think they are so cute! I got the flag the other day at Walmart.



Well, that's it for today guys! I hope you enjoyed my Fall Porch! 

Have a great week!!
