Show and Tell Saturday #3

Show and Tell Saturday #3 from Sonya of At Home with The Barkers. Random fun talks, things I bought, and interesting finds.

It’s a good Saturday here at the Barker household. Our son, Dylan and his girlfriend Emily, are here for the weekend.

We are headed to Clemson for the football game.

As parents of adults it is always the best when we are all together.

We are having chicken quesadillas, homemade salsa and guacamole for our tailgate.

I can’t wait.

We will use our outdoor kitchen to cook them. Then place them in a warmer. Ready to go.

Home Decorating thoughts and plans

Yesterday I decided to create a nice sitting area in our master bedroom.

I pulled together extra pieces we had around the house. We had a leather recliner here but gave it to our son for his apartment.

Creating the space with what we have gives me a good idea of what to look for when it is time to shop.

As I was making the bed I got to thinking about how I wish this room had a different look. I have wonderful dreams for it.

Do you make your bed daily? It is a must from me.

Anyway, I still like to keep our room neat and tidy even if the decor doesn’t look like I want. I created a fun video reel for my instagram showing the process.

Don’t get me wrong, most of the changes I am thinking would be fixed with paint and new bedding.

Speaking of paint projects, I am definitely planning to paint the stone on our fireplace. Just trying to decide on the color shade.

There are a few spaces I want to paint and I’d love to get that done before it’s time to decorate for the holidays.

Do you have any home projects you are hoping to do before the holiday season?

My huge floor mirror in the foyer is currently in back in stock. It is definitely an investment piece BUT worth it.
This $19.98 Christmas tree collar is a steal compared to the $129 one from Pottery Barn.
If you like to move furniture around get these sliders for your carpet and these sliders for hardwood floors. I have had this exact set for almost 20 years.

OK friend, I hope you have a great weekend.
