Living Room Plans: A Sectional and Accent Chair Options
Hi there! I was planning on sharing a Fall Dining Table this week, but life got busy with a knee surgery and birthdays and soccer and tennis…. So, I’m going to talk about our Living Room Plans instead! Much like our son’s room, our living room is constantly getting updates and sometimes outright changes. While the tear down/complete TV makeovers are super fun (my favorite things to watch), the reality is that often times at our house the changes are sort of a slow burn. Switching things out one at a time. Or, often times experiencing a domino effect with one change leading to another and another. Such is the…

Cozy Autumn Living Room
Hi there! I’m back with our Autumn Living Room Mantel and Shelves. And a few other Autumn decorations thrown in for good measure too. All brought to you with the help of my funny and curious 7-year old (complete with cheesy Cheeto fingers). He had a lot of fun with the camera timer and jumping in to create blurry “ghost” appearances. But, you’re here for the Autumn Living Room decorations (sans the ghost shots), so let’s get to it!

Mackinaw Road Monday: Fall Mantel Sneak Peek, Masks, and More
Hello! And Hello Fall. I usually treat September like summer, but the weather is making that almost impossible this year. The Lake is higher and wavier than its usual still-as-glass September water. So, this Mackinaw Road Monday has a little summer and a whole lot of fall in it. I’m showing you a Fall Mantel Sneak Peak, a clever way to store and display Masks, and More.

Kitchen Shelf Styling- Autumn Decor
Hi there! The weather turned suddenly earlier this week. It was the perfect motivation to try out some autumn decor on our open kitchen shelves, courtesy of The Counting House. Kitchen Shelf Styling is a great way to refresh the space as the seasons change. Before we begin, let’s give a collective good-bye to these late summer shelves in our modern traditional kitchen. (You can also check out this post for the Spring Shelves and this post for the Winter Shelves.)

Thank you! WEEK 6 We’re back with Week 6 of the One Room Challenge. 2020 has been such a heavy and eye opening year.

Well, technically, we had light, but now it is coming from this perfect cabin light pendant. It had only been…

Mackinaw Road Monday: Mood Boards & Headboards
Hi all! Apparently, there is a thing call Mood Board Monday. And, since we’re all hunkering down, I thought it would be fun to jump on that bandwagon. Planning and dreaming sound like a great escape. And, really, it goes so well with all of the alliteration already happening in the Monday title. I had signed up for the One Room Challenge this spring. Thankfully, it has been postponed until May. A bonus is that it gave me time to really consider my choices. You know, since I haven’t waffled enough over the past year regarding the Beach Cabin.

Hi there! I hope that your week is going well!! We were supposed to be headed out on Spring Break this week, but are staying home and hoping to help to flatten the curve. This simple spring kitchen makes me so content to stay put. That and the fact that I get a break from playing homeschool teacher. Yay!!!

Mackinaw Road Mondays: Springtime, Sunglasses, Flowers, and More
Hi there! I wrote this post last week, before everything happened. And while we’re all a bit (lot) anxious and social distancing and praying for those who are and will be affected on all kinds of levels, I’m hoping that this can just be a little break and distraction from all of it. So, Welcome to Mackinaw Road Mondays where we cover five topics. This week, they almost all involve the sun or flowers… or both! How’s that for actually being semi-focused on springtime this week! And, after this week, a little springtime cheeriness is definitely in the cards.
