Random thoughts on the most beautiful Saturday morning with extra sunshine:
1. If you are reading this in the morning? Just know I’m out yard sailing with coffee following every multi-yard sale sign I can find.
Wish me luck.
2. Everyone came home this week for spring break and our house was bursting.
I never knew how much I loved bursting until it left.
3. I have the cutest idea to decorate a dough bowl for spring. Line up a row of topiaries in burlap-covered pots.
4. It was an amazing week on the blog. We discussed:
- 21 creative uses for label makers
- before and after spring hutch
- how to organize a refrigerator
- how to get stains out of slipcovers
6. The twins are going to a fun sorority event next week and the boys are traveling.
Everyone is living their best life.
And now?
Here are my favorite finds from around the web.
I love the color of this front door.
And that basket. Such a pretty way to introduce spring.
See the entire front entry here.
Look at these bunny cinnamon rolls.
Aren’t they the cutest?
This sweet centerpiece.
Every detail is so cute.

Thank you for sharing my cinnabunny recipe! Have a beautiful weekend! xoxo
Love all the house tours, thanks so much and have a great time with all your family.
You're all ready for spring, aren't you? I need to get the winter wreath off my front door before the birds build a nest in it. 😮 The Rochester project and the mountain cottage are my favorites, but maybe you've already guessed that. Oh, and I love the soft green front door. So springlike.
Good luck. Come back with something amazing!!
So many great ideas here! In all seriousness I have 5 pairs of those leggings. Love the before and after of the home in Rochester. Oh and dough bowls are always in style. Happy weekend!
Great Thistles, KA. I sure look forward to my fav Saturday read.
In you spring break mentions about your sons traveling.. didn't one of your sons get married recently?
Thank you! Your posts always give me such a lift. So much light and humor. Blessings on you!
Another great blog!! I am definitely making the cinnamon bunnies on Easter morning. And I loved the Mountain Cottage! Might it be for rent…this summer? I’m desperately looking for a getaway from the low country summer heat and storms. ☺️
Such great inspiration! Hope you had successful yard sale time. Saw where many of your family were in town celebrating that new Eagle Scout. I’d love to see you when you are “home” again.
OMGosh!! The two before and afters!! The mountain cottage!! Yes, please!!! xoxo
