| Gotta love a Sock Monkey vignette!!!! |
 |
| Midge relaxing in the sun on her lounge chair. Yep Sock Monkey's have lounge chairs!! |
 |
| Well there you have it some pictures of little vignettes around my home. It was a lazy summer day and I did not have any new projects going so I thought I would do a post on some vignettes. Have a lovely week end. Kris :) |
 |
| I got this chippy little birdhouse for my dining room table. |
 |
| It was so chippy and sweet and only $10 so that came home with me. |
 |
| Just loved it shape and chippiness. |
 |
| Found some sweet little jars with vintage bling and some old mason jars with the flower tops for sweet little vases. |
 |
| My biggest score was this beach bungalow sign for the guest room. |
 |
| It got this sweet sign from Mary at Urban Farm Girl. http://urbanfarmgirlandco.blogspot.com/ I wish I would have taken more pictures of the booths but I did not have my camera :( Mary's booth was adorable. It was all decked out in Americana. I think she said she would be posting on her blog some pictures so check it out. The girls from Tattered Tiques had a really cute booth at the show too. |
 |
| I am loving my new beach bungalow sign. |
 |
| Just a fun little sign to hang on my old chippy shutters. It was a great show with lots of great vendors. It was super hot but there was a breeze and everyone was under tents so it was really nice to shop. Just a short little post on my found treasures from Sunday. Hope your week is going great. Kris :) |

| Here is my front door and I put up my two picks to see which one I might like better. |

| Do you see where the teal was so great with all the decor but I still was liking the way the yellow was brighter and popped a little more. It also was a cloudy rain filled day so I think I was liking the soft and bright color of sunny yellow!!! So I let that sway me a little bit too. |
 |
| Clearance Door!!!!! |
 |
| Here's a little DIY tip. Add this stuff to your paint and you will never get brush marks. Helps the paint to seal to the door too. |
 |
| I love Behr paint won't use anything else. This is their exterior paint with primer. Even though it has primer in it we still primed the door just so the paint would really take to the fiberglass door. |
 |
| New black door accessories. |
 |
| Now I have my cottage yellow front door and the wood door is stored to go back up in the winter. I love having this clearance door so I can change up the color whenever I want. Next year if I go with another color theme on my porch I can always change up the color on the door. For now I like the summer sunny yellow. Have a great week. Kris :) |
 |
| So I got two sets of cute wine glasses (6) in a set at HomeGoods. |
 |
| Got out my paint brushes. |
 |
| Painted the bases of the wine glasses with chalk board paint. About 3 coats did the trick. |
 |
| Will tie off a little package of white chalk with each set of wine glasses. For very little money you have a cute hostess gift or prize in my case to give at the Girlfriend Get Together. These are super cute and each person then can put their name on their wine glass or you could write a cute saying for the party. I hope who ever wins these sets as a prize loves them. Well have a great week end. It is humid and rainy here so I am doing some inside projects. Kris :) |
 |
| The summer house is in full bloom. |
 |
| My bike is over flowing with blooms and it is only June!!!! |
 |
| The potting bench is over flowing too!!!! |
 |
| My bag of petunias that are hanging on the old vintage door are doing great . They love the late afternoon sun. |
 |
| My old cottage door that I added the chippy flower box is loving all the sun it gets. |
 |
| Loving my chippy old door potting table. Love to pot new flowers on that old table. |
 |
| My other bike is really loving where it is at this summer. I normally put impatiens in this flower bed but with the mold scare I debuted on what to put in the beds and I chose the petunias and I am glad I did they are doing great. I love my impatiens and how they would mound in my flower beds but the petunias are doing a good job of filling in nicely. |
 |
| I have had this old potting shed door for years and I just love to put it in the garden each year. |
 |
| Just says Summer. |
 |
| Back yard watering cans ready for action!!!! |
 |
| This was my angel water feature that no longer would pump water so I could not bear to part with her so I just planted her too. |
 |
| Ha! my husband's shed. With him being a fire chief have to have something to reflect that near the shed!!!!! |
 |
| This is the party tree!!!! My apple tree that I have many bird feeders in her branches. The many different birds, squirrels and bunnies love to party under this tree. I cannot put flowers in these beds as the bunnies eat everything!!!!! I wish I could capture a time when the squirrels and bunnies and different birds are all together eating. It is the cutest thing to watch. |
 |
| This is my family of sparrows summer home. They love this home each spring and summer to start their family. |
 |
| Gotta have a little romance in the garden with candles. |
 |
| OMG!!!!! My petunia's are so full of bloom and color. At this rate of growing I will soon not be seeing my garden gate. |
 |
| The lovely Carol from Art and Sand blog was so sweet and offered to make me a pillow for my old chippy bench. I told her she will have to hold on that sweet thought because this plant has taken the bench hostage for now!!!!! Well my friends hope your official start to summer is giving you beautiful and sunny days. I just love the lazy days of summer. My chair is calling to me!!!! Kris :) :)  |
