Paint Your Old Buckets

Hello and Happy Weekend Sweets, if you have been following me for a while you know that I am 

a sucker for old buckets. This time of year I love to use them for my flowers outside. 

I wanted to "cutify" them a bit, so I got out some paint. 

Touring Through Blogland

Hello sweet readers, the awesome Kelly from The Essence Of Home
invited me to join a fun blog tour. Kelly's blog was one of the first ones
I ever followed and she helped and encouraged me when I first
started my own blog.  Although I have never met Kelly in person,
she is one of my favorite blogging pals. And her beautiful Cottage
Style Home is just amazing!!!!!

So let's get started with my mini tour......

 

Dining Room Design Board

Hello Sweets, I am so excited to share my very first design board with you today. 

I used PicMonkey to create this inspirational board for our dining room.

Since I am such a visual person, I feel this board will really help me pull

things together when I get to the final stage.

While searching for Dining Room inspirations on the web, I've learned what really attracts me.

Here is the scoop: I love creamy light slipcovers and darker tables, white sheer curtains,  

jute rugs layered with a cowhide rug, wicker baskets and the contrast of black & whites.

A Little Outdoor Chandelier and the Tortoise and the Hare

Hi there sweet peeps, I haven't been up to all that much this week. 

But I did manage to hang up a little chandelier on my front porch today. 

The chandelier is actually meant for indoors, the candles 

are battery operated. But I really wanted it for my porch. 

So if it gets a little rusty over time -- even better!

Outdoor Serving Station

Hello Peeps, first off I am so excited to show you all my new blog design. Yes, Little Brags needed a Face-Lift and Rebekah Louise Designs came to the rescue. If you have a blog and need some help, I highly recommend her (very reasonable too)!!!! 

So today I played on our back patio. Remember my Potting Bench  I got lost summer? Well this year I decided to turn it into a Beverage Serving Station. I've been seeing so many awesome ideas in Blogland lately. So here is my version...
