Christmas Plans for the Sunroom & a new Rug for the Holidays

I swapped the pretty yellow pansy rug in the sunroom for
   a bright pink & blue beauty..... 

Coastal Fall Mantel

I basically use the colors that I love year-round in our home......

Coastal Harvest Farmers Market

Welcome to the Coastal Harvest Farmers Market vignette that I've created
on the top shelf of the armoire in the family room 

Creating a Casual Coastal Vibe in the Living Room

Today, I'm sharing some of the changes that have been made in the living room.....

I put the Battenburg slip covers away for a while & replaced them with some
 fresh blue/white striped ones..... 
The tablecloth was also Battenburg lace.    I dug thru my stash of vintage linens & picked out one that is white cotton with blue & pink chenille flowers and stripes....

Autumn on the Coast

I decorated the entry in a theme I'm calling "Autumn on the Coast".....

Swans are the Stars of my Coastal Garden Themed Front Room

I tried some coastal decor in the kitchen just to see if I would like it.....Well, I didn't like it,   
I LOVED IT! .....

Coastal Farmhouse Wall/Window Art

Today, the inspiration for my post is a bit of left over fabric from a $10 bag of shabby chic curtains that I bought at a yard sale.    It wasn't your ordinary sale....it was my friends from " 2 Shabby Diva's" selling stuff that they weren't moving to their new larger location. 

Blue Coastal Curtains, a Sailboat, & Depression Glass

I just finished some fun projects that I can't wait to share with everyone!   

Coastal Coffee Station

Today, I'm sharing a little corner of the kitchen where I can be found each morning brewing a cup of coffee.... 

Fall-ing for a Coastal Farmhouse Vibe

I have quite a bit of Farmhouse decor in our home & I was wondering "can the coastal theme I'm loving now work with my existing Farmhouse decor?'
 

Autumn Coastal Deconstructed Sofa

I keep thinking that I should probably get rid of my deconstructed sofa.....but I still love it! 

Coastal Autumn Pumpkin

My big white pumpkin has welcomed Autumn in with several different looks over the years...... for 2026,  I gave her a Coastal vibe!

I put a vintage doily on the coffee table that I felt looked similar to a "fish net"
Then, I set my pumpkin on a milk glass cake stand so I would be able to decorate UNDER her.....as well as ON her....

Autumn Coast Vignette

I used a dish drying rack as a container to create a fun
Autumn Coast vignette for my kitchen counter....

Autumn Hoosier

So, what can I do when it's too hot to go outside?   
I turn the AC down to freezing cold,  take everything out of the Hoosier cabinet, & give it a thorough Fall cleaning!!!

Coastal Vignette

When does summer end & fall begin!
