white {you capture}


Is there anything more inviting than worn wicker furniture on a front porch, warmed by the sun, surrounded by a picket fence?  It is quintessential country.  It is my mama's front porch, not mine, though I aspire to create a haven as warm and welcoming as hers.



Our house is like a blank sheet of paper right now, all neutral white, beige, and brown.  It is begging for color, begging for decoration.  I have been watching design shows and scouring the internet for ideas.  There are so many ideas, I am so inspired, but where to start?  I will have to develop my thrifting abilities, but am excited to do some projects.  I will be sure to share.


I'm not sure how a theme of white could take me off on a home decoration tangent, but that's how my brain works these days.  It is almost impossible to follow my thoughts in a straight line.  Even conversations with me tend to wander around, loop back, and return to where they started.  Eventually, all the information is conveyed, but not necessarily in a logical, linear pattern.  I'm almost positive this happened after having children.

That is all for today.

Linking up with You Capture this morning.  Click HERE for more white.

  2. I'm doing the same thing, but I just can't seem to make anything look right, so I'm not even going to waste my time worrying about it anymore. You are so creative though, you'll get it done soon. Have you seen anything on pinterest?

  3. The porch looks like the perfect place to snuggle up with a glass of sweet tea and just watch the world go by.
