I can't believe it has already been a month since we began our challenge. I so loved seeing all of your submissions to our challenge in our Facebook group. It's not too late to join. Information on the group can be found at the end of the post. Hope to see you there!

Here we are at month 2 in the challenge! I find shopping my home such fun. Some days I'm tempted to remove every accessory and pile them in the foyer and start over everywhere…..crazy, huh!

 

3 Month Decorating Challenge - One space, three ways brought to you by a group of top bloggers!

 

The links to these fabulous ladies are below. 

 

One space, three ways decorating challenge with tips on using what you have by Our Southern Home

 

Here is my space from Month #1 in the challenge. You can see all of it HERE along with my tips for decorating your home with what you have. Those carnations lasted a good 2 weeks. I changed the water out regularly.

Here is this month's space.  I changed out the art, books and flowers. I also added votives.

Hydrangea are one of my absolute favorite flowers. I picked these up at Whole Foods and placed them in this clear square vase. Just 3 blooms really fills it up.

Last month I incorporated pink. This month I used my flowers for inspiration and pulled colors from them.

The 2 books are from a thrift store. I intentionally placed them here as a reminder to read them this spring. Of course I've got to finish my Christmas novel first!

I pulled together my assortment of mercury glass votive holders and placed them on a silver tray from a thrift store.

One of the things that I love so much about this cabinet is the painted colors. It allows me to pull from those colors when decorating the surface.

I borrowed the giclee art of the little boy from the guest room. It sits atop the armoire in there.

But these are the show-stopper of the surface. While I hoped that they would usher in spring, I think I was wrong. As I type, we are expecting a snowstorm to start of up to 10 inches here in SC any minute.

I like that it looks simple and not too cluttered.

    ha…i was actually going to go a similar route with the candles this month. Love that picture. It adds to the beautiful peaceful backdrop of the things that you chose on your console. Lucky you to get some snow, we maybe got an inch. the kids were so bummed.

    The mercury glass on the silver tray looks so pretty together. I’ll have to say that I’m ready for Hydrangeas to bloom in my yard. This has been a long winter!

    LOVE the hydrangeas!! They are my favorite flower to decorate with. I bought some faux versions for mine, but nothing compares to fresh blooms. Love the sweet art too! XO

    I do just that, when I need a huge change I move around my furniture then I pile all of my pretties together and start clean and fresh. One vignette at a time. It’s quite refreshing. LOL Jo

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week. 🌷 Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week. 🌷 I've been a bit absent this week with my squares, but I've been painting again. Y'all know all that molding and trim that I've been tackling. It's so time-consuming but has a big reward. Fresh paint works wonders in a space. We've got a beautiful weekend ahead here in the south. Hoping to enjoy a little time in the yard before the pollen starts setting in.

AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery sto AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery store. I could explore forever. Ashlyn and I enjoy cooking together so shopping for our favorite steak taco night dinner was the perfect opportunity to visit our new @foodlion in the Greenville, SC area. We are no stranger to Food Lion! We shop there when in NC while visiting our family beach cottage. The extra fresh produce and meats section always blows us away. Food Lion prides itself on keeping prices low and passes savings to its customers. Be sure to sign up for an MVP card in-store & online. Swipe to see more + our yummy dinner!

Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain and cold creep back in. The weather is a big tease around here! A tip & a question! Please read below...help a girl out! 

🌸 Do yourself a favor, when you go to the grocery store....pick up some fresh flowers. They are inexpensive and instantly brighten your day. Change out the water every couple of days and most will last a week. Cut a little off the stems as well. 

👁 I recently had an eye appointment. My doc wrote a prescription for me to get progressive readers. Folks, She said that I need 2.5s! I’m in a 1.75. It’s such a pain. Here’s my question. I can no longer pluck my eyebrows with my magnifying mirror! 🤣 The 52 struggle is real! What’s a girl to do? Become Bert or go to the salon. I don’t wax because it’s too irritating. @ashlyn_little offered to pluck them! 🤣 Anyone else in the same boat? 

Favorite @lovechicos look! My So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are on sale! Today is also the last day of their first-ever warehouse sale!

Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usu Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usually have a last one out rule. I just can’t walk in the bedroom with an unmade bed. My dresser may have a pile of folded laundry for a couple of days, but that bed is made! That Amazon blanket is linked in stories. It’s soooo good! 

This is perhaps my favorite look for our master bedroom! Soft toile, linen and leopard print bedding and blankets are so cozy! http://liketk.it/3953P #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKstyletip @liketoknow.it.home

I have not been this excited about the weekend sin I have not been this excited about the weekend since last weekend! Ha, ha! Happy Friday! No big plans here, but I’m still trying to dress up for a date night in on the weekend. We’ve been eating a lot in the dining room lately. It’s a cozy space with the twinkle lights that I don’t have the heart 
to take down. It’s like feeling like we are in an actual restaurant opposed to the daily meals at the kitchen table. Just that little extra effort makes a difference. #ad

Loving these separates from @lovechicos This lightweight chevron sweater is perfect for now and spring. The lines are so slimming with the flowy ¾ length sleeve. Guess what! My So Slimming Girlfriend Jeans are on sale now thru February 25th! All full-priced jeans are $59!

Been watching the news before cooking dinner and e Been watching the news before cooking dinner and enjoying a glass of wine. It’s heartbreaking seeing what’s going on in Texas. The people, the animals....I pray that everyone finds warmth, food and water tonight. It makes me look ahead to warmer days and carefree times of summer. This photo was last summer....I’m ready for outdoor weather. 🙏
