Hello Everyone!
Happy Friday! It is Father's Day weekend now. Do you have any special plans for the "man" in your life? We plan on having a relaxing weekend and cooking out.
I wanted to share a few new magazines that came home with me recently. They are just the thing for sitting on the porch and pouring over for some great decor inspiration.
The one on the left is all about summer living. Quite appropriate right now, don't you think? It is full of water front homes that have a bit of coastal cottage decor. Here's a peek.
This home is located in Canada and the owners own a home interiors shop. It's an amazing home!
In the next magazine, it's full of cottage style in my favorite shades of "white"! There are some bloggers homes featured too that you will probably recognize.
Marilyn Thompson's home from A Beautiful Mess.
Dusty Lu's home.
Miss Mustard Seed's home.
So, if you're looking for some great summer inspiration, these magazines would definitely fit the bill. The magazine with all of the blogger's homes featured is actually an Autumn issue though.
Also, thought I would share a new pillow design that I used in my kitchen. I'm loving adding a little bit of pattern around my kitchen table.
It coordinates perfectly with the place mats and other pillow I'm using in here.
Hope you all have a great weekend!
Thanks for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteHappy Friday.....

hi kelly,
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing your magazines...i rarely buy them anymore as they have gotten so pricey! i wanted to mention that the one you say is Melaine Thompson's from A Beautiful Mess....her blog is My Sweet Savannah and I don't believe that photo is of her house...maybe it belongs to A Beautiful Mess blog.
I love magazines too & I have so many subscriptions... I don't have time to read them so they pile up until we take a road trip!! Hoping to fit a few in this weekend. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you picked up some fabulous magazines! I will have to look for them when I am out and about this weekend!!! Love your new pillows too :o) Have a great weekend!

Love that new pillow! Those mags look like great reads.
ReplyDeleteLove the new pillows! I also love that white pitcher on the table...looks like I'll be adding one more thing to that Hobby Lobby list. :) Enjoy your weekend and hope your hubby has a fantastic Father's Day! We plan on grilling out too and you've reminded me I have a ton of magazines sitting around that I have to catch up on. :)
ReplyDeleteThe picture you have as Melanie is actually Marilyn's house.. I've been there and bought from her garage sales... how lucky is that!!! Even better in person!
ReplyDeleteLove the new pillow Kelly! And there is just nothing like getting to peruse new magazines. Hope you have a wonderful weekend! :-)

Happy Father's Day to hubby!!
ReplyDeleteGreat mags. I have stopped buying them. I have so many Mr WWH says we could go into a business selling used.... lol
Have a great weekend!
Enjoy your reading and hope you find some inspiration or at least some relaxing time. I had to laugh at the photo of the House & Home magazine. It is a Canadian classic but obviously they crop out the Canadian part of the title above House when they sell it in the US.
ReplyDeleteKelly, your table is just beautiful! It looks so springy and fresh.
ReplyDeleteNothing ever takes the place of a good magazine. Does it? My hubby is going to be out of town next week and I'm already looking forward to laying in bed with books and magazines. :)
I've subscribed to house and home for years, although here it is called 'Canadian House and Home, Canada's Magazine of Home and Style'. They also used to have a great hgtv show years ago. I wish it was still on! The other mag looks great too!

ReplyDeleteI've been looking for the new Romantic Country issue, but I haven't seen it here yet.
ReplyDeleteLove your new pillow. I have some new pillows that I want to put out, but I'm worried that my puppy will try to chew them...so in the closet they are staying for right now.
Have a great weekend.
hugs,
Cindy
Enjoy the BBQ!

The pillow truly goes well with the other fabrics in the kitchen. Hope you guys had a great weekend. I suprised Ryan taking him out to eat after Church...I told him I had to stop at Michael's real quick which is across from a Logan's. It was a surprise because we don't usually go out to eat. LOL
ReplyDeleteGorgeous with all that white decor, but for the life of me....how do people live with a white decor. It would be dirty in my house all the time with a husband and pets!
ReplyDeleteThe magazines look wonderful...thanks for sharing that today!!..love your new pillow..your kitchen always looks so fresh and inviting!!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy getting my Romantic Country! Your kitchen looks just beautiful :)

Hi Kelly....I love a good magazine...and add beachy houses and that's a winning combination....I love your kitchen table with those beautiful pillows...your house is so peaceful....
ReplyDeleteHi Kelly,
ReplyDeleteLove your pillow pattern! I also love the cup holder (bottle holder) on your buffet. Where did you get that? Haven't blogged in a long time (dealing with some health issues) but plan to be back soon. Redoing my living room in a cottage coastal style and hope to reveal it in about 4 weeks! Finally the dark red accent wall will be going and I hope to get some plantation shutters on my large bow window. I enjoy keeping up with all the little changes and tweaks at your home.
