Hello my friends! Today, my Decor Enthusiasts friends and I are talking about decorating with baskets. I have mentioned in the past that the majority of my decorating decor is upcycled. I get bored with my decor pretty quickly and like to change it out often, so I don't like to spend a lot of money on it. Baskets are no exception. As far a baskets go, estate sales, thrift stores and yard sales are your best bet for getting them for next to nothing. I also shop the clearance ... VIEW POST

How to Transition From Christmas to Winter Decor
Hello my friends!! I know I've been missing for awhile but I've had a little lack in motivation since we got back from the cruise. I have an embarrassing confession for you: We just took one of our Christmas trees down last weekend, and the other one is still up in the basement! I know you are thinking I am a total slacker ... and you are right! We left for our cruise on the 1st, and we didn't have time to get it down before we left. Then we got back on the 11th, and it took all we had just ... VIEW POST
2015 Christmas Tour Finale
Happy Monday my friends!! Hope you all had a great weekend! We had a perfect holiday party on Friday night. The unnamed child brought her boyfriend over for the first time, and being thrown into that much family is enough to send anyone running for the hills. Let's cross our fingers he comes back. Yesterday, I should have been working on projects, but it was a rainy, gloomy day, so we went to eat at Cracker Barrel, took a few new shots of the tree in the basement, wrote my post and watched ...

Sugar House Coffee Table
Today, my friends, is month three in our One Space Three Ways Decorating Challenge. If you are new here, what we do is take one space, and we decorated it for Fall, Halloween, and Christmas. I chose my coffee table, since it is one of the main focal points of my living room. My family is very used to coming home and finding the house looking totally different than it did before they left. I might hear an occasional yelp from my hubby when he runs into a newly moved piece of furniture in ... VIEW POST
Home for the Holidays Christmas Tour
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a good weekend! Ours included Topher's office Christmas party, which included a murder mystery that we all took part in. Nothing says Christmas like a little dead body. The unnamed child went to her first dance club ... which made me a little nervous. She and her friends are only 18, which means they can't drink, but it doesn't stop the drunk 40 year olds there from hitting on her. All-in-all, they learned some country two step and some line ...

Simple Fall Decorating
Hi everyone! Welcome to the Fall Ideas Tour! Some super talented ladies and myself will be sharing some Fall ideas with you this week! As much as I wish I could tell you that I have had a chance to unpack my sweaters and start up a fire ... that is simply not the case yet. It was still 100* here last weekend! I have pulled out the Fall decorations, and I'm hoping that will bring a little good juju and Fall will be upon us soon! Yesterday's theme for the Fall tour was Mantels, and ... VIEW POST
How to Make a Gallery Wall Using Yard Sale Items
Last week in the Decorating Challenge, we focused on gallery walls. Mine was all about the Eclectic Gallery Wall that I have in my basement around a vintage dresser that I turned into my TV console. While writing that post, I realized that I never showed how I updated the gallery wall I have in my living room. ... VIEW POST
