Scenes from my weekend…
April is almost upon us and we woke up to snow flurries on Saturday morning. Snow flurries that continued for the entire day and left us with an inch of snow. Not a lot, but still enough to make everyone go, “Ugh! Enough already”. I don’t mind snow and typically think it’s actually really pretty, but I’m ready to say good bye to it!
Saturday we had our usual soccer outing and then spent the day prepping for our Easter tablescape post. I will be sharing it tomorrow, but here is a little sneak peek:
Part of my set up included a little action with rub on transfer letters.I’ve never used them before, but now I’m obsessed!
I also did a little baking with Hudson. We made a cake and decorated it with some rainbow cookies. Not sure if rainbow cookies are popular everywhere, but around N.Y. they are a super popular treat that Hudson adores.
We finished off our day by seeing HOME! I think I was more excited than Hudson. He loved it and behaved the entire time, which was much nicer than the typical chasing him around the theater scenario.
On Sunday I ran out to pick up some flowers for the photo shoot and spied this pretty lemonade at Fairway.
I also baked some croissants for the Easter tablescape photo shoot. My little secret? Buying the packaged mini’s from Trader Joes. They are so yummy and easy to make. You just need to leave them in the refrigerator overnight and then pop them in the oven for 15-20 mins at 350. Easy!
In the afternoon we ran some errands around town and then wrapped up our weekend at home where I got to play around with some new fabric samples. I’m in love with this new ikat pattern.
The purple/greige colorway looks great in my living room:
The blue/green colorway looks great with my vintage sofa in my bedroom:
I also admired the pretty pink leopard shirt I picked up during one of my errands.
All in all a lovely weekend filled with work, fun and family.

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
