FARMHOUSE FRIDAY 287

Howdy folks!  Has your week flown by like mine?  I can’t seem to catch up or get to the fun things.  The fun things keep getting moved to the back of the line.  Except this.  It’s time for Farmhouse Friday 287 and I actually enjoy looking at the links from so many creatives.  I typically get several ideas for my own home and some tips for life in general. Organization has been a big one lately.  Maybe I’m diseased with the spring cleaning bug?

FARMHOUSE FRIDAY 287

Last Saturday, the Lifestyle of Love hop posted and we shared how we decorate and use candles.  You might think candles can’t be that interesting.  But let me tell you, I saw some amazing ideas!  See the designs by clicking here.

Y’all, I have some news!  I am campaigning right now to be on City Council!  I’m excited and nervous at the same time.  I have an opponent which makes things way more difficult but I’m up for the challenge.  Campaigning got me thinking about spring because I’ll start knocking on doors introducing myself, which got me to thinking about our yard.

That brought me to realize I only have a short time to make it look the opposite of how it looks now – sad, dead, dirty and depressing.  And that took my mind to the farmhouse and porch.  I don’t think we’ll have time to get down there until after the election and possibly after our daughters wedding.

Anyway, if you too are dreaming of porches and decorating them with vintage pieces, click here for that inspiration.  It put a smile on my face. 

Wow, that was a lot.  Let’s get to this weeks fabulous features from Farmhouse Friday 286!

skewers with meats and cheesesHave you ever thought to make a charcuterie board on a stick?  I had not but think it’s smart and much more sanitary!  You’ll want to see Emily’s post from Hunny I’m Home and pin it for your next party!

    So many fresh ideas for spring! And I think Coco’s dinner suggestion idea is genius! I hate having to plan dinner all the time! Have a great weekend!

      Girl, I hate it too. If I ever get rich, the first thing I’d do is hire a cook! Thanks for the visit Nicolle.
