Remember those viral terracotta pumpkins from this past fall that EVERYONE was making? Well it's almost Spring, so that means we need some terracotta bunnies! This project is so simple and satisfying. It's the perfect way to upcycle a few thrifted bunnies or bunnies that have lost their style over the years. They lend the perfect garden nod to any spring display! For supplies I like to use a combination of different acrylic paint colors to achieve the perfect terracotta color. My three favorites are Folkart Terra Cotta - Dusty Trail, Delta Cermacoat - Terra Cotta, and Apple Barrel - Chesnut. You will also need a small paint brush, corn starch and a paper towel. You can use any type of ...
Spring Living Room
Topiaries | Moss Bunnies | Butterflies | Bust Planter | Moss Ball | Moss Bunnies Set of 3 | Garland | Birch Cloche | Rug | Tulips Spring was in the air today, it was 65 degrees in North Dakota! Our family room is decked to the nines in bright springtime tones and lush greenery, I mean faux greenery. For our mantle this year I decided to do a "moss" theme inspired by all the fun moss bunnies I have been finding lately. We got a new rug in our living room space and I think this is my all time favorite! The colors are just perfect, neutral but a faint hint of green. The crowning jewel of the room is the faux tulips that took center stage. I use these all spring ...

Collecting Delphite
Many of you know that my one true love collectible is jadeite, but have you ever met Jadeite's sister Delphite? It's funny to say that because my youngest sister is actually the one who started this delphite collection. I wanted to share a little about Delphite with you because when I shared this last year, there were SO many questions and I had a lot to learn. Delphite was actually produced during the same time as jadeite, it even sold for the same price during the depression era. Long before the jadeite craze, delphite was a hot collection item too. Delphite was produced in much smaller quantities, hence making it more expensive and harder to find today. One of my favorite brands of ...
