Hi Kim! Hope this finds you well. Thanks so much for sharing my before/after post today. What a labor of love, and I am still tired since a whole house diy reno will age you! Hope you have happy plans for the 4th and will be soaking up lots of sunshine. xox
I hear you on a whole house reno aging you! We spent the last 8 years doing just that, but we didn’t do it all ourselves. We were so tired of the dirt, the noise, the inconvenience.and I began to hate painting! You’ve done a beautiful job!
Love the tablescape ideas here this week! Hope you have a fabulous 4th of July weekend and thanks so much for hosting!
Thank you Jayne! The 4th was very different, but we had a cute parade that comes down our street. I was surprised it still took place, but it did, and it was fun to watch. Have a good week!
So excited to dive into all this creativity, Kim! Love your patriotic tablescape and your flower container inspiration too. Hope your holiday weekend is a festive one, hugs, CoCo
Thank you Coco! I appreciate you being here! I’m going to go check out your amazing blog this evening. You give me so much inspiration!
