Summer Home Tour - Part 1

Hello!

Today I'm joining an amazing group of bloggers to take part in the Blogger Stylin' Home Tours Summer edition, hosted by The White Buffalo Styling Co. This is such an awesome group of bloggers and I hope that you will take the time to check out all of their unique and stylish homes.

Today is the last day of the tour. You can start the tourHere or if you are already following along, then you have probably come from With Heart. What a beautiful bedroom reveal, Jennifer is always so inspiring.

Welcome to our 1924 cottage!

I like to refer to our home as a beach house because to me it looks like it belongs near the beach. I decorate our home with a casual coastal look that is relaxed and easy going. However, we live in the country nowhere near the beach, but it's fun to pretend :) Your home is what you make it, right?

I recently made this sign that is hanging in our entryway and blogged about it HERE. It's the lyrics from one of my favorite songs which are a great reminder to not stress out over the little things. I then layered this coat rack with lightweight totes that are easy to grab for on the go.

When you walk into our home you are greeted in our big open living and dining room. I'm going to share the Living room side in part 2 of this Summer tour on June 22nd, so be sure you are following me so that you don't miss seeing the rest of our Summer home tour. You can follow me by e-mail,Facebook and/orInstagram.

With my two boys home all day for summer vacation, the dining room table is where we will be working on a little light summer school. To make it fun, I filled a bundt pan up with crayons, added a stack of paper for writing and drawing along with some healthy snacks.

This wall here is the primary aspect you see whilst getting into our home, so I always try to hold it fresh and inviting.

I am constantly switching up the decor in this antique shelf, but most likely you will usually locate white dishes, white picture frames, and a few small plant life due to the fact the ones are my move-to styling gadgets.

Next to the shelf is a touch vintage bench that is the suitable spot to take a seat down and tie your shoes......Or in this situation placed on your flip flops :)

How cute is this Life is Better in Flip flops door stopper?! It's from Pavilion Gift and I just adore it. You can find it here along with many others including some that would be perfect for Father's day gifts.

Here is only a little sneak height of the dwelling room. I can't wait to proportion greater of it with you, so recall to come back lower back for the second half of this tour .

Off of the residing room are some french doors that lead you into our domestic workplace. I understand I share this room a lot however it is because it's my favorite room within the residence. Even although I share this room lots, there are a few new matters in right here that I want to proportion.

I switched out the rug for this denim one I got at Big Lots years ago. All of the air plants that I had sitting on the antique trunk got moved to another location, and in there place I added a big fern plant, as well as this cute Buddha water fountain from HomeGoods. Unfortunately the fountain doesn't work, but I still like it nonetheless.

You can always find incense burning in our home. I just really love the earthy smell of them, plus they seem to provide a relaxing vibe which is what our home is all about.

Sometimes I refer to this room as the sunroom because of all of the windows. Aren't they wonderful? Right now my most popular post are these curtains I made from five dollar Walmart sheets. They are perfect for this room because they provide us with the privacy we need but without covering up all of the beautiful old windows.

This daybed was actually my husbands bed when he was a kid, which I think is cute. It makes for a great spot to come in and relax.

So if you follow me on Instagram, then you know that I recently picked up this fabulous macrame mirror at a yard sale for five dollars. Seriously!! It might just be my best score ever!

It's perfect for this wall here, right next to my DIY string art on the wall.

I once wanted to paint this marlin that sits about our desk, white. I love white paint, but I'm glad my husband wouldn't let me do it. It really ties the whole room together.

Don't thoughts the Minecraft obsessed kid here who is busy at work. :)

On the alternative aspect of the room are a pair of vintage bookshelves. I am constantly switching things round on those as well.

I turned into going for a seashore gathered appearance, so that you will see lots of little treasures like shells, feathers and bottles. And again, a few white photo frames, which I just added a number of my very own photography to, Most of the pix I just took on are latest trip to Coeu D' alene lake.

My favorite thing on the shelves are these 'We People' items that are also from Pavilion Gift.

I've had the Camp People sign for awhile now, but the 'life is better at the beach' frame is new. I placed a fun little picture of my family in it.

This Beach People candle is my favorite because we are definitely beach people! (as well as camp people) The We People line also comes in; lake people, fish people, farm people, and so many others. I just think they're all so cute.
