A Little Stitchy Spring Fix

 Good morning!
I decided to fix up my Lizzie Kate Spring 4 seasons yesterday..
 I added a mat to the back made from sticky needlework board and a yellow plaid fabric..I also added
2 fabric covered buttons ..that I covered with green gingham fabric
I think it looks a whole lot better ! How about you? Spring has come out all over the house and I can't wait to start showing you! Have a great day!

April's Stitchy Chalkboard

Happy Friday !
I finished stitching April's A Year In Chalk  from Hands On Design.. 
 I finished it the same way as the last 3 months and used sheet metal on the back of the stitching to attach to the magnet on the gingham check fabric.. The frame is from Michael's..
 This is displayed in the foyer on a green chest.. I added some faux daisies and a painted mason jar to the galvanized bucket of tulips and the vintage scale..
 Can I tell you again how much I love using chalkboards to decorate .. the regular kind and the stitchy kind :)

Have a wonderful weekend !

January,February
and March A Year In Chalk..

Spring in the Kitchen 2015

 Happy Friday !
Lets take a tour of the rest of the kitchen decorated for spring!
 The seasonal chalkboard hangs on the wall between the family room and kitchen.. there is a DIY spring burlap wreath on the basement door..decorated with forsythia and a birds nest..

 The galvanized tiered tray decorated for spring sits on the end of the counter..
 a few chickens in a thrifted basket ..
The view into the dining room..

 the basket of bunnies and book page covered eggs on the kitchen table..in a wire basket on a cake pedestal.
 The new DIY spring table runner..
 and my favorite spring vignette.. Doesn't it just say SPRING!
 This was my first vintage scale I found .. its got a big white bowl with a stack of smaller plates inside ..topped with an urn that my daughter had bought at Goodwill and wasn't using ..In the urn is a moss bunny ( Hobby Lobby) surrounded by tulips from Michael's..The little birds are from Hobby Lobby and so is the branch of green thistles.. In the small pedestal bowl is a nest and another of the birds...a little blossom garland is wrapped around the nest with a few blue speckled eggs..
We went to Homegoods the other day and I found this bunny sugar bowl ( $3.99)  and added it to the bottom tray ..now this is even more my favorite vignette!
This wire cloche was in the dining room ..its filled with a couple vintage chickens and a little wood box for height.
Naptime ..:) and yesterday this hawk came and landed on our fence while I was out there starting yard cleanup.. he was huge ! wish I would have had my camera ,this photo is from my phone.


I hope you all have wonderful weekends! It's been pretty warm here ..maybe even 60 today ..there is still a lot of snow in our yard. Hoping it will be gone soon !

Spring in the Dining Room 2015


 It's time for a little spring in the dining room!
I started by making my chicken soup tureen into the centerpiece..Its sitting on a white pedestal plate , on top of a burlap wreath with dried hydrangeas ( from my garden) tulips and a stand of little blossoms. It is all sitting on a quilt that was made by my grandmother with a daffodil design..


 The Fitz and Floyd bunny platter I got at the Goodwill last fall for $1.99 is in the background..A moss bunny vignette in an iron basket ..


 The top of the hutch has 3 thrifted soup tureens .. and inside the hutch is filled with white dishes from an estate sale. .

 another Fitz and Floyd piece ..the bunny teapot sits under this glass cloche..
 a little bird on its nest on a stack of vintage china bowls..


 The view into the kitchen..




 The spring book page wreath hangs in the window..

 Both sides of the china cabinet will be getting plate displays.. I have found these rooster plates( the top one from Homegoods in California and the bottom one at our Homegoods here..) ..I have 2 of each for both sides of the china cabinet ..I am on the hunt for some white plates with alot of detail to join them ..

I am working on the R is for Rabbit from Prairie Schooler
and I finished 2 ornaments for this weeks Instagram #santasundayxs

The sunrise on Sunday ...today is foggy but supposed to get to 50 degrees .. the snow is melting and I am so ready to work in the yard!
