Spring & Summer Decor Ideas

Hey y'all!

So you all know that in a few days (5) I be heading back home to the good ole south. So with that said I am wanting to vamp up the house a bit, get it ready for Spring and Summer. I know it has to be looking rather manly with me being gone 6 months now. Curtis is not the let's make the house pretty and smell good kind of guy. So I know I am going to be doing some major Spring cleaning. I am wanting to add color to my Living Room and add some throw pillows to the sofa to start off with and add some pretty spring things to the mantel. SO I got on Pinterest and started to look for some ideas... here are some:

 I have been wanting some different types of Cactus in my house because for one they are almost impossible to kill. And they are a very lovely pop of color.

 I am hoping to paint the wall that connects the living room with the dinning room this color and I love the black chevron pillow too with that color. My sofa is about that color too.

 I love the saying.

 I am going to have to find some wall space to do this with, I love this idea!

 Very vintage :)

 So true!

 This I am going to do for my kitchen, so easy and too cute

 Be very lovely on my red door.

So you can see I have many ideas. Now Just trying to figure out which ones I can do first and not break the bank. LOL I am all about some DIYs :)

Wedding Thursday: Floral Crown

 

DIY floral crown from P.S I made this...

I saw this first on The Little Owl, and I just fell in love with it. I have been looking everywhere for a diy to make a floral crown for my wedding day. I want long pretty blonde hair that is semi up with flowers in my hair. I think it is so romantic. Don't you think? The only thing I would change about this DIY is to use real flowers. So I am going to try and make one and I will so post pictures of the process!
