Coca-Cola Holiday

With Christmas and holiday parties right around the corner, it’s time to stock up on drinks!  This year Coca-Cola has added even more fun to the festivities with their special holiday inspired Share a Coke bottles!  These 8.5 inch aluminum bottles are the perfect size for parties.  They also have little Coca-Cola Christmas balls on them, and they feature cute message like, “Share a Coke with Santa.”  How fun!  With cute bottles like this, who needs fancy glassware?

Stenciling is among the cost-effective and a creative home improvement technique. It can work with any décor from contemporary to traditional. It can also be used on a variety of surfaces including the walls. Stencils are particularly ideal for a kitchen where you may not have adequate space to hang artwork, photos, and other decorative elements. Here are some stencilling tips that can help give your kitchen a dramatic look.

Friday Favorites – Week 290 – With Halloween Decor

October 15, 2015 4 Comments

Happy Friday to you!  Even though I’ve put my party post over every week, I feel terrible that I’ve missed out on doing features these last two or three weeks! And I especially regret that all this business happened during what is perhaps my favorite time of year for blogging….I LOVE featuring fall and Halloween ideas!

But on the flipside, one of the thing’s that has kept from me from doing features is all the great blog work I’ve been doing.  Lately I really feel like I’ve cranked out some fun and creative posts!  If you have time, I’d love for you to take a look at all the recipes and projects we’ve been busy with!

Now without further ado, let’s get to this week’s party featuring some oh-so-creative Halloween decor!

Bedroom Makeover and Tips for Working with Small Spaces

August 19, 2015 1 Comment

Don’t you just love a good room makeover? Me too!  And I especially love it when it’s dramatic! And you can make the simplest of changes sometimes and still make a BIG difference.  For me, it’s all about the bedding.  You can add a new floral quilt, and it can dramatically change the look of your room instantly!

 My husband and I are in the process of making a lot of changes in the house.  A while back we swapped out the furniture.  Shortly thereafter I purchased new bedding, and last week we moved the furniture to an entirely new room.

Here’s the old room:

 

Old Bedroom

 

This photo was taken a long time ago, so it’s not my best, but you get the idea….here I had a green bedspread, featuring red flowers.  It seemed very vibrant when I first purchased it but the pattern definitely got old for me and was starting to feel a little old fashioned.

As for the furniture, I’ve always liked this set.  It had a very classic appeal with ornate features, but it’s always nice to have a change!

Here’s the new bedroom: [Read more…]

Coke Bottles

I’m so excited about the hot summer weather here! One of my favorite summer activities is just sitting on the front porch or the back deck with my hubby.  Whether we’re sitting out in the hot sun or under the stars at night, it is always good to have this time to spend with him just laughing and talking as we share a Coke!

This summer Coca-Cola has brought back their Share a Coke campaign, complete with fun personalized bottles and cans.  Coke has always been my favorite drink, and last year I had my fair share of cans and bottles with fun words like “Superstar” and Soulmate” written on them.  Then this year I’ve gotten bottles that feature emoticons and the words “Love” and “Amor.”  But even better than that, I found a bottle with my husband’s name on it!

Hello everyone! Happy Friday! And Happy EARLY Mother’s Day to all the moms, grandmas, aunts, kitty and puppy moms…..etc!

Lately I’ve been seeing so many cute home decor items that I’d love to have.  I’ve been wanting a living room makeover for a while, but I just can’t really swing it right now….at least not a makeover as big as I am wanting.  But the next best thing is browsing for ideas online and in stores.  Today I have a few ideas from our bloggy friends; they include some great room decor and some DIY projects. Hope you enjoy!
