There is something about living in the south sitting on the front porch and ferns hanging in the breeze that just speaks to me. I LOVE plants, flowers, nature and all things beautiful and I love having hanging ferns on my front porch. When spring finally comes around and there isn’t much threat of freezing […]
Friday Frugal Finds: the week of 50¢ finds (+link up your finds)
Yard sale shopping has been pretty much non-existent these last few weeks. With the constant rain we have had in south plus being out of town last week, it had been about 3 weeks since I had shopped at a yard sale. Last Saturday the rain let up for a few hours in the morning […]
Rid your garden of pesky insects with Worry Free insecticide (win a $25 gift card)
(This is a sponsored post by Pennington. See full disclosure statement below.) I spent the day out working in the yard. Glad to finally have a break from all the rain although my grass and plants sure have been enjoying it. While I was weeding the flower beds, I noticed that a good number of […]
Visiting Charleston
A few weeks ago my husband and I escaped out of town for a long weekend to celebrate our anniversary. We had a bigger trip planned (to celebrate our big 10 YEAR anniversary) but we will do that later this year. So we decided to stay somewhat close to home and check out a new […]
May + June recap
Don’t know why I always forget to share these posts – maybe I should just plan on sharing them every 2 months, then I won’t be late. So here is the last 2 month’s worth of posts all linked up for you in one post. Benefits me cause I don’t get discouraged thinking I didn’t […]
How to set a pretty table with yard sale finds (tablescape for less than $5.00!)
I think you know by now that I love to set a pretty table. I have been setting our kitchen table with placemats and a simple centerpiece ever since we first got married 10 years ago. Started out with a small table that would only seat two and I had a couple sets of two […]
Patriotic themed repurposed tin can vase
(This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and All You, but all my opinions are my own. #lifeforless #pmedia http://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcO) Have you heard of All You magazine? This is the cover of their July issue. Back when I was couponing heavily and frequenting lots of coupon blogs […]
Easy Succulent Garden (in a milkglass dish)
I love adding live plants to my home. Love the color and decoration that they bring and also love that they are good for you in purifying the air. So when I saw these succulents on clearance at Wal-mart, I snatched them up. Succulents are very popular right now and I have been wanting to […]
Celebrating 10 years of wedded bliss!
Today is a really special day!! My husband and I are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary! Hard to believe it has been 10 years – in some ways it seems like it was just yesterday and yet, I can’t remember what life was like not being married to my husband. So just for fun […]
Friday Frugal Finds: new purse, really nice home décor items, and more! (+link up your finds!)
I had another good week last week hunting down some yard sales. I think it has helped that we haven’t hit many 90 degree days yet here in GA which is rare for June. So yard sales are EVERYWHERE! I have actually been finding some of the best stuff on Friday instead of Saturday. Do […]
