The store bought topiaries sure are cute though and a really quick, easy planter solution!.

Blue and White Mudroom Update., but here’s a little peak at how it looks in there right now.. Around the House.

I added a few summery touches around the house, here and there, but honestly, my biggest home accomplishment inside our house, other than the mudroom, was.finishing the painting in the dining room.I’d been working on painting the walls white, because my blue and white collection just looks so great against it, but I was slowly working my way around the room, moving one piece of furniture at a time, and it took me about 6 months to actually get it done.

I also did a little lamp switcheroo in here and brought these big ginger jar lamps in here that had previously been in our bedroom.I think they look perfect in this spot..

So that’s about it for things to report on around around the house this summer!

I’m hoping to have a few more sizeable projects to share with you this fall, but until then, hopefully you enjoyed this little tour!.Monthly Christmas Countdown Archives here.
