Pink Sunday #3: My Home Library Finishing Touches

 

Welcome to Pink Sunday! Feel free to link up all your PINK posts below!

This week our family took a spring break from school to focus on rearranging, decluttering, and playing Musical Daughters! One of my sons finished building a bedroom for his sister in our basement so she's moved in there, oldest daughter has moved upstairs to a room of her own, and two youngest daughters have moved downstairs to another room with the fifth daughter. Haha! 

I've been working on decluttering and decorating my library/craft room. I just finished putting up the twinkly lights before I sat down to write this post.

I started putting together this library about a year ago. One of the first things I added was this pretty pink chair and book cart. The Holly Hobbie dolls and pink pillows are gifts from my Mom. 

My Mom also gave me this neat antique mirror. I love the folk art style so I dressed it up with these cute things I found at Michaels a few years ago.

Here is one book corner. This is where I keep my own collection of nonfiction books. Most of the nonfiction books in our home are in the school library area in the dining room for now. 

Here is another book wall. The two shelves on the left house the books I've not yet read and the other two are where I keep my fiction collection that has been read.

I've got one more portion of the room to finish --- this area is where I plan to put my art desk that is currently in my bedroom. To the right of this area are shelves full of crafting supplies. I'll save that for another post.

Happy Pink Sunday!

The Homemaking Party: Decorating For Spring!

 

Welcome to The Homemaking Party! I've been decorating for spring! I love decorating with birds this time of year --- they remind me of all my sweet babies (that are not so much babies now!) My daughter, Lynzie, made me this little pillow long ago when she was about 11 or 12 years old. It's so precious and I put it out every year.

I don't think I'd ever seen a bluebird before moving to NW Arkansas and now I see them all the time. In fact, I believe one is making a nest in the eaves of my covered porch this year! I don't mind!

Hope you've all had a great week! I'm excited to see what you've got to share for The Homemaking Party!

Pink Sunday #2: Silly Pink Things

 

Hi Friends! Welcome back to Pink Sunday where we show off all our pink finds of the week. Feel free to link up below and show off your pink stuff!

Friday morning I picked up some groceries at Walmart and encountered these adorable guitar shaped syrup bottles from Dolly Parton's breakfast food line. Super cute!

These salt and pepper shakers probably were never actually used regularly (they've still got the "magnetic" sticker on them) but they're adorable for kitschy shelf decor!

I also found this funny bunny across the aisle from the shakers. I love these jewel-eyed critters. If you do too, check out my post from Vintage Finds Friday where I feature my adorable Lefton bluebird!

Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend!
