Ikea Bagel Rail on My Kitchen Wall

I think this is one of the cheapest wall décor I’ve ever bought and I love it.

This side of the kitchen needed something but couldn’t think of anything until

I was at Ikea and had it all in my hands but put it back. Boy, was I sorry when

I got home and realized it would have looked great. Have you ever done that?

This is the side I’m talking about the one right next to the fridge,

we only do coffee here but on holidays we use this side for food,

plates, silverware and napkins.

I brought out my cookie cutters, some are very old since I started to collect

them in 1983.

Anyway I went online and ordered what I wanted knowing it would look good

since I could visualize what it would look like by standing there.

I decided to use the hanging bucket as a napkin holder for now, works great.

The towel is from TJMaxx

I hope you had a wonderful day, a little warmer today but cloudy… that’s ok,

I’ll take it!

Take a Walk Around My Livingroom

Hi Ladies! The weather has turned from down right cold to hot and it looks like the rest of the week is going to be that way too! I’m so ready for it! So bring it on!!!
I thought today I’d take you on a tour of my livingroom, I haven’t showed it for a while, everything is the same but this time I can talk about some things that I didn’t get to before!
I’m still loving the burlap, apple green and my Extorp sofa. I love Ikea just wish it was closer, like 37 miles closer:) That’s where I got the black and white pillow too that you see there! The green ones are from Marshall’s.

I like taking pictures like this…it’s great to see where something should be moved to or to just take it out of the room altogether! I’m thinking like the shutter should be moved and more pictures added below the ones on the gallery wall.

Lately I’ve been using my spring smelling candles, this one is called Mountain Lake from Yankee Candles, the windows are open and the curtains are blowing in the breeze making the whole house smell fresh and clean.

To take this picture I was standing right in front of the screen door to the back porch.

I’ve been so tempted to paint the step back cupboard that Stush built for me one Christmas I guess I’d go white but not stark white! What do you think?

Well, it’s over the hump day and the weekend is almost here, what will you be up to? I will be either in my daughter’s pool or on the docks!

Can You Say Ektorp?

I’m so excited to show you my brand new Ektorp sofa with the white slipcover! I so love it, my dream come true! Here it is!

The slipcovers were so easy to put on too, I worked yesterday so Stush and his brother went to Ikea to purchase it, when I got home it was put together but he said “I wasn’t putting the slipcovers on”, that’s okay, I wanted to do that myself anyway:) I think I may change the lamp shade though and raise the one long picture higher.

Closer look oh, and do you like the new apple green pillows?

Then I got to messing with my stepback cupboard!

The newer things are the faux plants on top and the Nate Berkus basket that I got for $10.00.

I think I need to put more white plates in it after seeing this picture.

Yesterday my daughter and I stopped in Ikea just to look around…warning never go to there on Saturdays the place was packed! The lines to check out were so long of a wait, my daughter said it looked like a herd of cattle, there just wasn’t a place to stop, no wonder the buggies can go sideways.
I did buy some Gerber flowers and the vase! Also the black and white pillow on the sofa to the left.

Love the beading around it!

I hope you liked the couch, I know I do and one thing I really love about it is that I can change it to another of their slipcovers, they had a beautiful gray one but I’m happy with the white for now!
I’ll be joining these parties today:
