Inspired by Country Living....

Well, its been awhile since I have updated...

I went to the Country Living fair here in Atlanta. The fair has never been to Georgia so we jumped at the chance to go. There was so much inspiration there. This was one of the ideas I had to try.

Yep.. Paper chains.

What a simply traditional idea made with old books. So I got to work. My children said "Hey I've made those before!"

Another inspiration from Country Living....

I'm sure this issue of Country Living looks familiar. It is the current November 2010. Well that little crow on the cover caught my eye. He just screams FALL to me. Well I have to admit I have never heard of a pie bird before I read this issue. There are all kinds of them though. Well look what a little angel found in a booth at the Flea across from mine Yep! isn't he AWESOME!

I guess its time to make an apple pie. Maybe?

Blessings,

I've been nesting...

No, Not the nesting your thinking about.

I spent the afternoon making these clothespins...I sort of felt like the mama bird I am making a home for these little eggs just like I do for my sweet boys. Lots of love, patience and time.

I don't know which set is my favorite yet.?

Sheet music..or burlap?
They work great on this memo holder...

Blessings,

Kerri

A Beautiful Day!

Today was a beautiful day!

After dropping the kiddo's off at school...Hubby and I got to steal some time together. We have a favorite spot we like to visit to eat when it is just the two of us, but we have always eaten there for either lunch or dinner but never breakfast. So we went today ...

Yum.....

The food and the coffee was Awesome!!

But, I have to say being there with my hubby was the best part.

Blessings,

Numbers everywhere...

Most recently it seems like out and about shopping all things are getting numbered. I wonder if it is the sense that we all want to be organized? Well I started looking around my house. All I see are numbers. Here are a few of them.

In my kitchen..

Some pillows I made for my kids TV room.

The bar stools in my kitchen I stamped.

A goodwill find that I painted.

My boys bathroom organizer.

Some jars I embelished .

I am so bad about before and after pictures. I try and try to remember but that is definitely something I need to work on.

Have a blessed day!

Dreaming and Planning a master bedroom redo

Let me start by saying we live in a town that does not have a mall. We have alot of outdoor shopping centers but not an actual mall. Well yesterday my husband kept the boys and I had a chance to spend the day with my girlfriends.

Lets just call it Mommy R.R.

Oh did we have fun.

We head north up the highway and visited all the places we just don't get to go to all the time. Home Goods, Anthropologie, Pottery Barn... Ugh it was like a day of inspiration refill. None of us spent alot of money but what a fun day. I don't know if I was exhausted the most from shopping sensory overload or all the laughter we shared.

Which leads us to today. We had a great morning at church. This afternoon I am sitting here not being able to get this blog I saw a week ago out of my head...

This master bedroom spoke to me and is obviously still speaking to me.

Take a look @ Pretties and Posies.

So this is when the planning takes place. I am going to head to the basement, closets, and garage to see what I can find to make that change. On a shoestring budget that is . I know I will have to buy some white spray paint but I will keep you posted.

Have a blessed day!

I heart windows

I don't know about you but there is nothing more lovely than an old chippy window. Well recently a friend mentioned she had a few windows that she was looking to get rid of and was I ("YES") interested in. The YES of course was one of those moments when I couldn't resist but had to interrupt. Thank you Judy! >>

I hung it in my dining room over a side table I had in there.

I previously had this print hanging above the table but I have to say

I heart windows.

Don't you?

Here is some more window inspiration
