Home! We managed to have some time away this past

Home! We managed to have some time away this past weekend, but being home again will feel so.... good! 🥰🥰
.
.
We’ve always loved to travel but being forced to stay home has brought a whole new appreciation to being at home. .
.
Did you know it takes approx two months (66 days) to form a new habit. Maybe that’s why I’m so ready to be home again! 😉
.
.
We’ve definitely formed some new habits these last few weeks. .
.
What will the new normal look like? More and more I’m seeking a safe place, a haven! A comfortable and familiar place! .
.
Thanks for allowing me to share my home with you. I appreciate all your encouragement and support! 😘😘
.
.

I hope you have the best day! 😘. .

Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
.
.

Everyone is rocking
the red, white and blue on this day of remembrance! ❤️🇺🇸❤️
.
.
What do you do when the wheel falls of your red wheelbarrow? Make it a patriotic planter of course! 😉
.
.
❤️ Giving you a glimpse of our DIY greenhouse in the back ground and will be sharing more later this week. ❤️
.
.
Enjoy your hot dogs 🌭, grilled burgers 🍔 or whatever you’re throwing on the grill today! Stay safe. 😘❤️🇺🇸

Did y’all hear about my free light fixture? ❤️❤️
.
.
In case you missed it, it was free from @habitatforhumanity restore. I cleaned it up and added some crystals I had saved from another old light fixture!🥰
.
.

Well, here’s where it landed! Y’all know I couldn’t resist playing around in the greenhouse, even if it’s not finished! 🤪😉
.
.
What do you think? 😉 Is it perfect there? .
.
I plan to add some solar lights and hopefully I’ll be sharing more details later this week. .
.
Y’all have a blessed Sunday! 🇺🇸🇺🇸😘

Happy Memorial Day Weekend! 🇺🇸 . . I hope you’re enjoying a few extra days of fun and relaxation!☀️🇺🇸☀️
.
.

There’s nothing like a little red, white & blue to celebrate this weekend of remembrance! Especially, this great knife set with the fun blue handles from @edgeofbelgravia #sponsored
.
.
They make quick work of all these veggies for my guacamole dip! The teak cutting board not only helps with the slicing and dicing, but the appetizer looks great served right on the board. .
.

Do you think my style is Farmhouse? .
.
You know when you think, you’ve got everything you need for the perfectly styled farmhouse, something new pops up that you can’t resist! .
.
Check out this adorable paper towel holder from @arthurcourtdesigns
Oh my gosh y’all those cows are about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. .
.
And guess what? You’re not going to find your paper towels flipped over in your sink! If you’re familiar with @arthurcourtdesigns, you know what great quality and how heavy their pieces are. .
.
You’ve got to swipe left to see a close up. I’m putting a swipe up on stories for you as well. .
.
Sorry for being so excited this early on a Friday, but what are they going to think of next? 🤣🤣🤣. That was my mama talking in case you’re wondering! 😉
.
.
Y’all have a great day! Are you ready for the weekend? 🏖

Greenhouse Dreaming 🍃 🍃🥰
.
.
Three days of rain ☔️ has brought a halt to all greenhouse work, so I brought the greenhouse to my dining table. .
.
We actually needed a break. Since this weekend is a holiday it will probably be next week before everything is completed 😢! .
.
In the meantime I’m gathering and hunting all things “greenhouse”! 😉😉
.
.
Do you have plans for the Memorial Weekend? I hope you have the best day! I’ll be riding this 🛶 if the rain doesn’t stop soon. 😜

Vintage Hospital Carts and a Nesting Box 🤔🤔

Vintage Hospital Carts and a Nesting Box 🤔🤔 .
.
Can you tell I like to repurpose, rethink and recycle? 🤪
.
.
This is our loft bar which we named “The Coop’. .
.
The two metal hospital carts were white when I purchased @vintagecottage150 ❤️. The tops became the shelves that join them and we made a faux barn wood top with another little raised shelf. .
.
You can see how to make new wood look like barn wood on my blog link 👉 @rachel_thepondsfarmhouse .
.
A galvanized spray paint gave the carts an industrial vibe 🥰
.
.

The nesting box was cleaned of all the chicken poop and hung on the wall to store extra supplies. We didn’t actually see any poop but just in case, it got a good scrubbing 🧽! 😱
.
.
And Ta-Da we have an industrial bar!
Oh, I painted the sign and the chicken wire cloche is from @rodworks ❤️. Perfect for displaying the vintage liquor bottle! .
.
Y’all have the best Wednesday! 😘😘

Y’all I’m back in the house today. .
.
Gotta have a little rain to keep everything green and growing. ☔️ #amiright .
.
I might restyle my table today. What do you have planned? .

Have you noticed how many outdoor views we’re seeing lately? Mother Nature is showing up big time. 🥰🥰🥰
.
.
I couldn’t resist capturing this view just before the sun ☀️ slipped behind the mountain last night! The days are getting longer and this weekend was gorgeous! .
.
In addition, we are so close to being finished with the greenhouse! 💃💃
.
.
It’s all closed in and I even have my dad’s old work table is inside. If it doesn’t rain, we might even get the front landing attached today. There’s trim work and paint to go as well. But so close. 🤞
.
.
I hope you had a great weekend! ዘልየየሃ ጠዐክዕልሃ!
