Summer Home Tour
Happy Friday Friends
and Welcome to Summer!
Today I want to share my Summer Home Tour with you all.
I have been ohhing and ahhing all week, looking thru all of the homes on the Summer Tour of Homes, hosted by Gina at The Shabby Creek Cottage.
My husband and I are working on some curb appeal but here is our house currently…
(New shutters are now up! Link to see them is at the end of the post.)
FYI…That stray Crepe Myrtle that has bloomed by the garage window will be getting moved this week.
I always love having a letter B on my wreath. I make them myself.
Nothing fancy, just grapevine wreath, some floral, burlap, wooden letter and scrapbook paper.
If you are new here I would LOVE to have you subscribe to the blog…I have so many post coming up! Just add your email in the box at the top of the page! It’s easy! Here is a sneak peak of my Teen Girl Room Makeover…

Hey Allison! The B is bought from Hobby Lobby in the craft section. I just cut the scrapbook paper to fit and Mod Podge it on.
Hope you have a great weekend.

It looks so beautiful and inviting, friend! Can’t wait to see everything up your sleeve!
Thanks Christy! So many things that are started, just need to be finished. I’m thinking you had the right idea…I need to get the kids on board to help 🙂
Your entire home is so pretty! That little bicycle pillow tugs at my heart more than just a bit…

I host a linky party every tuesday, would love for you to link up!
Thank you Angela for the follow! Can I ask, did you try to subscribe to my blog or follow somewhere else? I found a broken link on my subscribe box this morning 🙁 so I set it back to the plain default one for now.
Hi Sonya, I’m a first time visitor to your blog, thanks to Gina. Your home is lovely! I love the pops of red throughout and I like your idea of placing a monogram in your front door wreath. Thanks for sharing your home on the tour with us!
Thanks so much Marie for your sweet words! I tend to always lean toward the red 🙂 Do you have a favorite color you can’t deviate from?
Heading to check out your blog!
I really like your home and your style! That red and white houndstooth is awesome! I’ll have to try to incorporate that somewhere.
Going to become a follower for sure. 🙂
Thank you Stacey! I love that fabric. That was one of my great fabric finds! Thanks for following, I’m heading to your blog now 🙂
sONYA, thanks for sharing your beautiful home. Your home has a peaceful and graceful vibe. I love everything you have done. I must say I covet the vintage scale that your bowl of lemons is setting on! Also that Crepe Myrtle can be transplanted to my yard! 🙂 Thanks for your prayers; your home tour was a good distraction for me. You are Forever my Friend!

Your home is beautiful. Love your style of decor! Dianntha
Beautiful home, thanks for sharing! 🙂 Do you mind me asking, where did you purchase the lil …orange (?) trees on your dining table? thanks! 🙂
Thanks so much! I have had those little trees for years…I believe I bought them at Big Lots. Not sure if you have those, but they are discount stores that don’t usually carry the same things all the time. ~Sonya
I lurve your home. It’s so clean and inviting. Wish it were closer. 🙁
Thanks Beth, you’re so sweet! I totally wish we lived close so you could come over for dinner! ~Sonya
Hi! I just found your blog and your home is so lovely! I’m wondering about your dining table bc I love it! Did you buy it like that or refinish it? I’m in the hunt for a family friendly dining table. Thanks!
Thanks so much! I actually spray painted the dining room table!

Thanks Kelly! I just found that canvas at Ross and fell in love with it…we took a family trip last summer to NYC and I have some pics from the same location as the pic. I appreciate you stopping by my blog ~Sonya
What a great home! I love your dining table, it is curvy and gorgeous. I also love your huge window in the breakfast area.
Gorgeous home tour, Sonya … from your color palette … to your beautiful furniture, vignettes and splashes of color! I spy a few goodies from IKEA, too … one of my favorite “haunts!”
Your home is so very charming! Thanx for taking us on a tour.
Thank you so much Pamela!

I love touring homes :o) It’s a great way to get ideas for your own home!
Thanks so much for sharing your lovely photos!
Please come by and visit.
Have a great weekend,

Your home is lovely and you have a great eye for great accessories.
Is the entry/dining room mindful grey or a different paint color.
Thank You! The foyer and family room are mindful grey but the dining room is the darker one Gauntlet Grey.
Just curious….what brand/color is that yellow in the bathroom? Love it!
That is Sherwin Williams 6128, Blonde. It has been one of my favorite colors for a long time!
Please tell me how you did the plant pots hanging on the towel bar. I would love to do this. Your house is great.
Thanks Linda! That is actually a kitchen utility set sold at Ikea. I just made it work for me. It’s part of the FINTORP system. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00202079/
Hi,
Love your home….Which plants did you buy at IKEA for your pots that are under your bathroom window?
Thank you,
Michele
I bought a variety of the artificial potted plants. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90375155/
