Met Monday



I finally got around to changing my mantel for Spring. Even though it sure doesn't feel like it around here. It's still cool and rainy out. I've never seen such weather here in the South!!! I can't remember from one year to the next how I arrange my mantle for each holiday. So this year when I decorated it, I couldn't even remember what I had on it last year. These are the before and after pics from last year to this year. The top picture is last year and the bottom is now. I found this large picture in my basement that I used to have hanging in my kitchen. Hubby and Travis thought it was WAY too big for this area, but I love it. He just didn't want to hang it!! After 25 years, he should know that when I make up my mind to do something, I will do it...or rather he will do it!! LOL!! Click on over to Between Naps on the Porch for more great ideas!!!

Met Monday





Let the spray painting begin.....yes, it's that time of year again where it's finally warming up a little outside so we can spray paint everything that we have put off all winter. I think this has got to be the coldest winter that I can ever remember here in the south!!! But it was 60 degrees today, so things are looking up. I bought this shelf for a steal last year at a consignment shop and loved the creamy white color. Of course, that didn't last long. Last week I bought this cute little table at Jerry's Furniture, my favorite furniture store, and found the perfect place in the kitchen. Well it didn't match the shelf, so Hubby sprayed the shelf (against his will, because he didn't think it would look good) Sssshhh, but what does he know....anyway, I love it. Believe it or not he did too! Scroll on over to Between Naps On The Porch for more Met Monday changes.
