Sorry this post was short and sweet! John and I took blog photos tonight and then said “oh, let’s just watch one show….” that never really happens. Several shows later and here I am at almost midnight working on this post haha! But anyways, you can see a sneak peak of tonights blog photos & a confused/sad rant on MTV the Challenge Rivals Finale on Snapchat (Our Messy Table) or on the new Instagram stories!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Spring Home Tour 2016

Here’s a look at the mantle:

I have mentioned this in earlier posts, but when we bought our new home this past Summer, I completely changed the color scheme in our house. Since then I have been collecting metal pieces, birchwood, cream & distressed decor. I have been trying to stick with those main staple pieces for every season, which saves me money, because I can reuse the same pieces in new ways each season. (Instead of buying a bunch of decor that I can only use once a year.) I did however, splurge on a couple bunnies for Easter, but for the most part – everything I got can be repurposed for each season.)

Photo frame and metal heart sign are from Micheal’s!

This is little wall in the living room is my favorite area in the house right now. This boxwood wreath& pillows really brought this area together.

This “Have I told you lately that I love you sign” used to be lime green and red. Take a look at what you already have and see if you can paint it and give it a fresh new look.

We use our coffee table all the time. So, lately I have been choosing simple centerpieces that won’t get messed up if we keep moving them around.

This candlestick goes with EVERYTHING. I like that it adds a little shimmer and breaks up the distressed pieces I have in the living room. & this metal tray has been used for SO many things. This is going to sound dramatic, but I would put it at the top of my best purchases of the year. It was so cheap and I have used it for other centerpieces& at a bridal shower to hold drinks.

This glass clochecaught my eye the minute I saw it! I put moss and these paper cache eggswith the little chicks inside it. I just love the way it turned out!

I have an obsession with boxwood everything right now. This little boxwood shrubwas too cute to pass up!

Above the Kitchen Cabinets:

Stay tuned for a post on how to decorate above the kitchen cabinets! It can be so difficult to fill that space. I’ll be sharing my tips soon

Entryway:

How adorable is this bunny!? I think he looks like a little gentleman with his bowtie haha!

This Home Sweet Home DIY is so simple! I love how subtle it is, but adds so much at the same time.

Hope you enjoyed our very first Spring home tour! I would love to know what styles and trends you are loving this Spring!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Plaid Blanket Scarf

I really am loving this scarf.Even though Christmas is over, I still plan on wearing it the rest of Winter. I am just going to nix the green/red and wear it with black, blue, white etc. There are so many colors in this scarf, it has a lot of options!

When I first got this scarf, I honestly wasn’t sure how to wear it! It is HUGE! Luckily, youtube saved me on this one.

I’m really liking blanket scarves right now. They have them in so many colors. This one from Altar’d State and I couldn’t find the exact one to link, but I’ve also seen some cute ones at Target & on Jane recently for a good price.

I was on my way out to go ice skating the day I wore this.. let’s just say when we got to the rink, there was literally a puddle of standing water and they were selling snow cones in December!! I actually was able to get away with wearing it, because as the evening came it did get a little breezy.

Me- pretending its cold and thinking of hot cocoa, mountains, snow, basically anything that represents what Winter should be like.

& that’s a wrap! I’m really liking blanket scarves right now. They have them in so many colors. This one fromAltar’d Stateand I couldn’t find the exact one to link, butI’ve also seen some cute ones at Target & onJanerecently for a good price.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that you are gearing up for a Happy New Year! We are so excited about 2016. John and I have been brainstorming all week about ideas and goals for this next year for Our Messy Table.

We also just want to say thank you to all who subscribe and follow us on Facebook and Instagram. We appreciate your support so much! Looking forward to 2016!
