New decor for Spring I’m ready

 

🌷🌼🌱It was a nice Saturday and it feels like Spring so it was time to get some things done.  I’ll post one of the projects in a few days but this was the other project. 

So easy to switch these out by the season. Two small totes hold everything including the grapevine pumpkins for Halloween. I can just grab a tote and switch out lights and flowers. The pots are just cheap plastic pots, spray painted black with rocks to weigh it down and hold the stems of decor. 

I threw the lights and Christmas decor into the tote and exchanged out with some red and white flowers for Spring. I get all of the decor from Amazon and it has worked quite well and way cheaper than flowers that I’m terrible about remembering to water on the porch.

The perfect placemats for your table

These woven placemats are really great. They were true to size and consistent enough in color to look really great on our table. We were using cheap fabric mats I’d gotten on clearance years ago but they were starting to show a lot of wear. 

I wanted our table to look a little nicer, now, and a little more finished. These were in various sizes to fit as a charger for any size plate.  I chose ones that would only extend past our plates by about 1” so that we’re less likely to get food on them and have to clean them. But big enough to see and protect my table from our ceramic plates. And best of all we use the extra placemats as mats or hot pads for our hot foods to also protect the table. Now the table looks nice, AND FUNCTIONAL, whether it’s just us or if we have guests.  

They do shed slightly in the cabinet we keep them in but it’s fairly minimal considering they’re natural fibers. 

Do yourself a favor and dress up your table a little bit. Find the link here ⬇️⬇️

Changing seasons….in the kitchen

 

I love this centerpiece.  I have three seasons worth of flowers I can just easily switch out. Batteries in the fairy lights and I’m good to go. Once you turn them on they come on at the same time every day. And because I love the crispness of the white flowers I leave those in from now until fall!!

All of these items were TJ Maxx and Hobby Lobby finds and if you know me anything Hobby Lobby was 40% off.

Fantastic over the shower caddy

 

I was able to get these in both black and stainless steel for two of our showers that didn’t have enough space for more than one persons personal cleaning items. These were even enough for two girls to share and have plenty of space for everything. Nothing had to be left on the shower surface itself. They do come with permanent adhesion pads to put the caddy on and give it extra support at the bottom of it, just down from the shower head. However I didn’t want to worry about gunk getting trapped so I didn’t use it. They seem to hold in place pretty well and they look nice and hold large bottles well.

Felt chair pads that rock!

 

Do you need to protect your floors from you chairs but don’t want them totally noticeable?  For black chairs, these are the answer. 

I had clear felt caps and they were fine enough for protecting the floor but I didn’t like that they were so noticeable. I found these square caps on Amazon and in black and they’re PERFECT. I’m so happy with this purchase. They fit great and don’t standout.  Now if I can eventually find the perfect square clear caps for my brown chairs. For now they’re round and clear. 

You won’t regret these.

Stellar new pantry organization

 Don’t get me wrong. I LOVED the vertical airtight containers I got from Amazon. But then I found these horizontal airtight storage containers that are 3.2L instead of 2.8 and they’re horizontal. Which means no pasta hiding behind pasta. And the great part was I took all of those vertical containers and repurposed them to store all of the coffee and koolaid we had in the same shelf making it look even neater. I love neat spaces. We don’t have a large house for the number of people living here so organized storage and space saving ideas are key. This makes me feel so good!  I love cleaning and organizing.
