    I could really use an Amazon gift card. I’ve gotten so many good ideas from your blog, and I’m currently redecorating our living room, kitchen and nook. All the rooms are open to one another and we are in the process of painting them. I will also paint a lot of my accessories to give them a fresh new look. I’m going for a layered, beige, tan and gray color scheme. I want to be able to change my accessory colors any time because I love decorating for holidays throughout the year.

    Thanks for your recent post on Rustoleum Anodized Bronze paint . I plan to spray paint a beat up dressing table with it rather than use chalk paint. It’s the color I have been looking for. How does it look on damaged finishes? What prep work would be needed?

      Hi Linda. Can you be a little more specific about what type of damaged pieces you’re talking about? It’s hard for me to give a generalized answer about that. 😀 The only prep work that I’ve done on any of my pieces is to wipe them down with TSP, to remove finger print residue and any accumulated dirt.

    Suzy, your gorgeous dining room at the beginning of today’s blog only emphasizes my love for neutral decorating. My “base” colors are similar to yours — I call my living room shades of taupe, while many people refer to taupes as gray. I love blues and russets as my accent colors, and both look lovely with my neutral walls (Behr’s Mesa Taupe) and upholstered goods (cream sofa and taupe chenille chairs). In summer, the blues go from Deep Wedgwood (I’m making the name up, but that’s how I can best describe it) to the watery teals of the sea. I especially love in today’s Spring Dining Room photo how those fresh-as-spring greens really stand out against your calming backdrop. It is certainly Pin-worthy! Thanks, as always, for sharing your lovely home! It’s always an inspiration!

    I used to call my style ‘eclectic’, until I saw your farmhouse style….I just didn’t realize I was putting it together all wrong! I was never happy with the results. Now I’m just ‘going for it’, and I’m loving how my decor is coming together….even better, my husband likes it, too! Thanks for all the inspiration, Suzy!

    Never thought to hang a wreath on my fireplace window/screen area. Great idea for the Spring/Summer months when not using it. Where did you get your boxwood wreath, it looks so natural?

    AND, I think I need to go back over some of the listed posts as I may have missed some good stuff. Your style is very appealing to me. Just the right number of accent pieces and interesting details. Wonder what May posts you’ll come up with. I’ll look forward to finding out!

      Hi Marjorie. If you’re referring to the two baskets hanging on the board and batten wall, they both came from local barn sales. If you’re referring to a different one, please let me know! 😀

      HI Cynthia. I’ve had several of my boxwood wreaths for well over a year and they aren’t showing any signs of drying out. You’re supposed to keep them out of direct sunlight and mist them once/month, but I haven’t done any of that. I doubt that they’re salvageable once they’ve completely dried out because they’d probably start dropping their leaves. 🙁
