it's all about the hospitable home
Hello everyone! It’s Floral Friday!
I had planned to do something in my dining room for this week’s post;
however, after trip to my favorite Consignment Shop, Always Home in Durham, NC.,
I decided to put that on hold and use my treasures that I found at the shop.
So today, I present a Sunroom Refresh with Blue and White and more.
I wasn’t quite sure in which direction I was going in to refresh the sunroom for Winter.
Initially I had some snowflake pillows from my Christmas decor in the room.
The sunroom was taking on a very neutral look . . . until . . . I took a trip to Arhaus.
Then the room became the
Winter Sunroom of Black and Blue and White too!
Yes, that title is correct.
I have more Christmas Trees.
So, come along with me as I give you a Christmas Tree Tour and More Trees
that you have not seen or maybe just glimpses of them.
We shall start in the Great Room.
Today, I have a Mini Christmas Tour for you.
I guess you can say it’s Part One of my Christmas Home Tour.
I do have a some sneak peeks of rooms I that I have yet to reveal.
Let’s start with the Dining Room.
The first room in which I usually initiate my Christmas decorating each year,
other than the foyer, is my Sunroom.
This year was no different. I began decorating the room
by putting up my Memory Tree. The tree that is filled with ornaments
that I have collected and have been gifted to me over many, many years.
I was actually decorating this tree Halloween night!
Yes . . . placing ornaments on the tree in-between answering the calls of the
Trick or Treaters for their treats.
Now, it is definitely Christmas in the Sunroom.
When the photographer working with the real estate company sent me the photos
of what she took of the house, I realized that I rarely photograph several
rooms of the house. So today I will present some of the rooms that I rarely photograph,
the kitchen and the laundry room.
There will be more soon!
I think the reason why I do not photograph these rooms as often,
is that I am usually not happy with the lighting.
Lots of shadows bouncing all over, but I finally, finally,
ordered something that will come soon to alleviate that problem.
Fall is definitely creeping in a bit in my part of the country.
We have cooler temps . . . well, cooler to me means it is not in the 90’s . . .
and I can see some slight changes in the color of the leaves on some trees.
That being said, it is time for my Fall Home Tour AND A GIVEAWAY!!!
So grab a seat and your favorite beverage and come along!
When I was traveling with my hubby in California,
I had the opportunity to visit a couple of Pottery Barn stores
while he was attending a conference. It was then when I came across their great sale
and as a result of this, I went plum crazy for early Fall in the Sunroom.
Literally crazy for the pillow covers in the shades of plum.
By now, most of you know that I have been purging, packing and staging my house.
I am methodically moving from one room to another.
The Great Room . . . . done!
Then on to the Sunroom . . . and I can now say . . . . done!
So here is The Lighter Sunroom.
Where has Spring gone?
The older I get, the more I tend to savor each season,
as they go by so quickly. So in a blink of an eye, Spring has passed us by
and Summer is here.
Therefore . . . . Let the summer decorating begin.
For some reason I always start in the sunroom.
