Simple Touches on the Front Porch

Welcome to our home! We are in the height of pollen season here in the south. As a result, I will add more plants in May when I do a big porch clean. 

I couldn't resist giving it a little mini clean to brighten the spirits after a long winter. 

I made a tulip basket wreath last spring with this basket. Last summer I freshened it up with this look for summer. I decided to leave it as is this year for spring. If it's not broken…….

In recent years, I have gone with fewer decor items on the porch. To make more of an impact, I've used a larger ginger jar on the thrift store console table. 

I found this ginger jar at HomeGoods last year. They are a great source for them, but you have to check frequently. 

Here is a secret, all of the plants that you see on the porch right now are faux! 

I adore garden stools outside and inside! They are versatile for a stool, drink table, or plant stand. 

Let's head inside!

Spring Dining Room

Here is just a peek of the Dining Room. Be sure to return tomorrow to see all the details on this month's Pinterest Challenge. It's going to be a good one with many ideas for your Easter table. 

Spring Family Room

The only thing that I did to take this room from winter to spring, was to add a couple of rabbit statues, a few Easter eggs, and floral changes. 

I always use faux flowers on the mantel. It's easier since the mantel is tall and no mess. Faux flowers have come a long way these days. 

The wooden pillar holders and the wood under the ginger jar ground the mantel. The faux peonies add a light and airy touch. The little bunny has been with me for almost 30 years. 

Read about the recent updates to the staircase gallery wall. 

I kept this area the same but added a decorative bird's nest with eggs. 

A simple yet classic way to add a touch of spring is by adding miniature floral oils to your vignettes.

This bowl was a recent vintage find at one of my favorite shops.

These faux peonies are extremely lifelike. They come in bouquets of 2. I ordered 2 sets for a total of 4 bouquets. I'll use these trough the summer.

The style of lamp is very popular again. This one is a thrift store makeover with a new shade. I recently tried my hand at making my pleated shade. It is an easy DIY!!! 

Our TV just went out in the family room. We went with a frame TV for the art as well as the anti-glare screen. I still need to get a frame for it.

Spring Breakfast Room

This room has stayed pretty consistent through the years furniture-wise. I did finally add the plate gallery wall above the hutch and I'm smitten with it. 

The sweet little rabbit candy dish was a thrift store find a few years ago. 

I have quite the rabbit collection. Most of them I use through the summer. 

I changed the heavy wood dough bowl for this lighter look. The oversized ceramic bowl is perfect for my chinoiserie balls. 

This table look doesn't scream Easter, so I will use it until the start of summer. 

This cake stand stays on display. Instead of leaving it empty or with muffins, my hips don't need, I added faux easter eggs. 

The turquoise wood hanging rack for the cutting boards is a piece of the original wood and color from the antique armoire that we restored in the formal dining room.
