Vintage Americana decor has my heart ❤️🤍💙 There’s Vintage Americana decor has my heart ❤️🤍💙

There’s just something about decorating with old red, white, and blue treasures that makes a home feel extra cozy for summer. I love styling my dining room shelves with vintage Americana pieces, antique finds, and patriotic decor that can stay up from Memorial Day all the way through the Fourth of July and beyond!

Give me all the weathered flags, vintage crocks, old books, and classic Americana touches. 🇺🇸

I know some people pack away their patriotic decorations after July 4th, but I love leaving my summer patriotic decor out all season long. It just feels timeless to me!

Do you decorate with patriotic decor all summer, or do you switch things up after the Fourth of July? #vintageamericana #vintagepatriotic #americanadecor #americana #patrioticdecor
POV: being on surgery recovery leave for a month t POV: being on surgery recovery leave for a month turned me into a full-time homebody 🤣

Honestly, staying home healing after surgery has taught me one thing… I never want to leave my house again 😂 Being cozy at home with my cats, resting, binge watching shows, and avoiding the outside world has been absolutely glorious. I truly understand the “stay at home cat mom” lifestyle now lol.

At this point, I have everything I need right here at home. Peace, comfy clothes, snacks, my pets, and zero social obligations 🤣 Meanwhile, every time I actually leave the house, I come back completely exhausted.

So the fact that I have to go back to work today after a month of recovery is honestly going to be SUCH a rough adjustment 😅 I’m not mentally prepared to rejoin society yet lol. Anyone else secretly love being home way too much?!

Honestly, I’ve been struggling with the thought of Honestly, I’ve been struggling with the thought of going back to work while still recovering from surgery. Between the physical healing and the emotional side of post-surgery recovery, I’ve been feeling pretty down lately. So this comedy date night ended up being exactly what I needed.

We bought tickets to see @johnbcrist months ago, long before I had any idea I’d be spending a month on surgery leave. Turns out the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. This was our third time seeing him live, and he absolutely delivered. I laughed so hard that for a couple of hours, I completely forgot about returning to work, ongoing recovery, and all the stress waiting for me next week. 🤣

Before the show, we had dinner at @redgingerasianbistro and finished the night with dessert at @timesbarandcoffee which made the whole evening even better. Good food, lots of laughs, and quality time with my husband was exactly the distraction I needed.

Sometimes healing isn’t just about physical recovery. Sometimes it’s about finding little moments that remind you how good it feels to laugh again. ❤️ 

Have you ever had a random night out come at exactly the right time? #johncrist #johncristcomedy #comedyshow #datenightideas #asheville
Not me having to put on my sunglasses every time I Not me having to put on my sunglasses every time I have to chop onions because my eyes tear up so bad… 🤣

Ever since I had LASIK surgery a few years ago, chopping onions has been brutal on my eyes. I’m talking instant tears the second I start cutting them 😂 Apparently my eyes became extra sensitive afterward, and honestly it’s been a struggle ever since.

But then I heard about the “wear sunglasses while chopping onions” hack and y’all… why does it actually work?! 😅 So now anytime my hubby isn’t home to take over onion duty, you can catch me in the kitchen wearing sunglasses indoors looking ridiculous but tear-free 😎 

If you’ve ever wondered how to stop crying while cutting onions, consider this your sign to try the sunglasses trick! It may look silly, but it seriously helps block those onion fumes from hitting your eyes 👏

Now I need to know… does anyone else have weird kitchen hacks like this? 😂 #kitchenhacks #cookinghacks #onionhack #cookinghack #onions
Y’all already know I’ve been on a serious freezer Y’all already know I’ve been on a serious freezer meal kick lately since I unfortunately have to go back to work next week 😭 And let me tell you… having a freezer stocked full of easy homemade dinners is about to save me on those busy weeknights!

One of my all-time favorite freezer meals is this homemade chicken pot pie recipe 🥧✨ It definitely takes a little extra work, especially if you make the homemade pie crust from scratch; but trust me, it is SO worth it. The creamy chicken filling, flaky buttery crust, and cozy comfort food vibes make it one of the best dinners ever.

Anytime I make homemade chicken pot pie, I always make two: one for dinner now and one freezer meal for later. And this time, I took my extra frozen chicken pot pie to my sweet mama after her surgery yesterday 💛 It’s honestly the perfect meal to bring someone recovering from surgery, welcoming a new baby, or just going through a hard season because all they have to do is pop it in the oven for an easy homemade comfort meal.

If you love easy freezer meals, homemade comfort food recipes, or make-ahead dinners for busy families, you definitely need to try this one!

So instead of using the actual truck bed for two 1 So instead of using the actual truck bed for two 12-foot trees, he somehow decides cramming them into my SUV is the better option 🤣 And I’m still shocked they even fit. Barely 😅

Meanwhile, his shiny new truck is sitting safe and spotless in the garage where not a single speck of dirt or potting soil can touch it 😂🚙

Tell me I’m not the only wife dealing with this kind of logic?! 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 #marriagehumor #povreels #funnymarriage #husbandwifecomedy #husbandwifejokes
I can’t believe it’s officially been one month sin I can’t believe it’s officially been one month since my endometriosis excision surgery. Honestly, I really thought by now I’d be coming on here saying I finally felt like myself again. I wanted this surgery to be the answer so badly. But the truth is… I’m still struggling every single day.

The lower back pain, hip pain, chronic fatigue, GI issues, insomnia, dizziness, and POTS-like symptoms are all still here. And while my surgeon was absolutely wonderful and removed the endometriosis she found, we’re now starting to realize there may be something more going on underneath it all.

Right now we’re exploring possibilities like EDS, MCAS, and POTS, which honestly feels overwhelming because getting doctors to truly listen and take women seriously can feel like a full time job in itself. I know so many women with chronic illness, endometriosis, and invisible illnesses understand exactly what I mean.

But even though I’m discouraged, I’m not giving up. I know my body, I know something still isn’t right, and I’ll continue advocating for myself until I get answers. And if sharing my story helps even one woman feel less alone in her own health journey, then it’s worth it 🤍 #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #endometriosis #endometriosisexcision #chronicallyill
Since I’ve been home recovering from surgery and g Since I’ve been home recovering from surgery and getting ready to head back to work next week, I’ve been stocking my freezer with all my favorite freezer-friendly meals, and this crockpot spaghetti sauce is always at the top of the list 🍝❤️

This easy slow cooker spaghetti sauce recipe is seriously my all-time favorite comfort food. There’s nothing better than a big plate of spaghetti with homemade meat sauce, especially when the crockpot does all the work for you! Just toss everything in, let it simmer low and slow all day, and your house smells AMAZING 🤤

One of the best parts? This recipe makes a huge batch, so I always freeze extra for easy weeknight dinners later on. Just thaw, heat, and dinner is basically done 🙌 Perfect for busy work weeks, meal prep, freezer cooking, and easy family dinners!

I love using fresh strawberries and blueberries to create the red, white, and blue patriotic design, and the sweet sugar cookie crust with creamy frosting makes it absolutely irresistible. Plus, it’s one of those quick and easy desserts that’s perfect whether you’re hosting a backyard BBQ, heading to a cookout, or just wanting a fun summer treat!

As we celebrate Memorial Day weekend with BBQs, fa As we celebrate Memorial Day weekend with BBQs, family gatherings, and time spent with loved ones, let’s not forget the true meaning of Memorial Day 🇺🇸❤️

This holiday is about honoring and remembering the brave men and women of our military who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and for this country we love so much. Because freedom is never free.

So while you enjoy the long weekend, fly your American flags proudly, hug your family a little tighter, and take a moment to remember the heroes who gave everything for the United States of America. Land of the free because of the brave. 🇺🇸 #america #memorialday #freedomisntfree #rememberthefallen #memorialdayweekend🇺🇸

Fall Home Tour

Since fall is officially creeping up on us, I thought it would be fun to show you all a complete fall home tour. I love to style my home for every season and I think fall and Christmas are my top two!

So if you’re looking for ideas and inspiration on how to style your home for fall, check this post out and let me know what you think!

Fall Centerpiece in Living Room
Here’s a glimpse into my fall living room!

Living Room

The first space I thought I would share with you all in my fall home tour is my living room. It just makes sense to start here since it is the very first room you see when you walk into my house!

I tried to make it feel super cozy and welcoming by adding in warm fall touches this year.

Easy Fall Centerpiece
Here’s a close up view of my fall centerpiece.

Remember my easy fall centerpiece I shared with you all a few weeks ago? I have it sitting here front and center in the middle of my coffee table in the living room.

It definitely is the perfect pop of fall color for this space. I love the warmth that the amber jars add to the room as well.

Fall Living Room Shelves
Close up view of my fall open shelves in the living room.

For my open shelves in the living room, I kept everything mostly the same. I just added a few touches of fall here and there.

That adorable plaid pumpkin and hello fall sign are Kirkland’s finds from last year.

Pumpkin Patch Scroll
Such an adorable scroll!

When I saw this scroll, I knew I needed to have it. I got this from Cottonwood Shanty and she makes the cutest scrolls. Whether you want a seasonal one, or an everyday one, she has you covered!

They also come in two different sizes and the one I got is the mini size. But it is so perfect for this space. I have it hanging right beside my front door.

Dried Hydrangeas

Of course you can’t forget about my dried hydrangea stems! I placed them in my vases on my antique railroad cart. I also keep my magazines stored in this vintage 7 Up crate too.

It’s such a great spot to sit with a cup of coffee and enjoy a good read!

Close Up of Fall Wreath
Fall Wreath on Window
Fall Wreath and Rae Dunn Mug

I also always love to hang a fall wreath on my big 12 pane window that I chalk painted and restored! It’s such an easy way to add a little bit of color and change for every season!

I try to change it up especially during the Fall and Winter months!

Fall Bedroom

Next up on my fall home tour is my master bedroom. I can’t leave the bedroom out from fall decor!

Just like at Christmas, I try to add seasonal touches in every single room that I can so the bedroom is no exception!

Fall Bedroom
I love to have white bedding so I can easily add pops of seasonal color by using throws and pillows!

I shared more in detail about styling a fall bedroom last year so I won’t take up too much time here.

I kept my bedding the same as last year, but just added in a few different seasonal pieces this year.

Fall Bedroom Tray
Tray styling is my jam! It’s so much fun to style seasonal trays in my opinion!

Y’all know I love my Modern Forestry candles too. And this fall they came out with some new scents too. Be sure to go check them out if you’re in need of some new candles.

I think having a fall candle burning in any room is the perfect fall home accessory! It just adds to the cozy vibe of the cooler season. You can’t beat it!

Fall Bedroom
I have to add pumpkins everywhere, even on the dresser!

Entryway Table

I can’t leave out my entryway table in my fall home tour. It’s technically in my living room, but I think it deserves it’s own spot here.

I have my dough bowl filled with pumpkins and I actually used that as a centerpiece for my Thanksgiving Tablescape last year. Although, I think it looks much better here on my entryway table!

Fall Entryway Table
I love the neutral fall vibes in this space!

I also used the pumpkins I made over in my easy fall decor refresh here. I placed them under my cloche from Antique Farmhouse and I think they look just perfect showcased there.

I also love how they are the same color scheme as everything else on the table too.

Painted Pumpkin Refresh
Here’s a close up of my cloche and pumpkins!

I originally wanted to fill my vintage crocks on the bottom of the table with pumpkins too, but due to cost I decided not to.

Maybe next year! Those crocks are huge so it would take a ton of pumpkins to fill them!

Dining Room

Attached to my living room and kitchen is my dining room, which is what is up next on my fall home tour! I also have my coffee bar here in my dining room as well.

But that deserves it’s own special section because I am obsessed with styling my coffee bar for the season!

Fall Dining Room
Here’s a full view of what my dining room looks like.

I will be sharing more in depth about my fall tablescape here soon so be sure to be on the lookout for that. I did it completely differently that how I normally do it, and I have to say I am loving the result.

I love all the vintage goodies tied together to create this look!

Fall Tablescape
Close up view of my tablescape.

Fall Themed Coffee Bar

Y’all know I always decorate my coffee bar no matter what the season is! but I would say that Fall and Christmas are my two very favorite seasons to decorate my coffee bar for.

There’s just so much potential and so many different things you can add to it. I love seeing how I change it up year after year too.

Fall Coffee Bar
The best place to start the day!

This year I was leaning more towards copper colors in my coffee bar. Whereas last year, I decked it all out in orange.

As you can see above, I still do have some orange pops of color here, but I do like to have more copper tones for a more neutral vibe.

Fall Themed Coffee Cart
Love all these coffee flavoring syrups!
Fall Tiered Tray
Close up of my tiered tray on my coffee cart.

This coffee cart area is located directly across from my coffee bar. I keep all of my flavoring syrups here (which I love!). I recently got the pumpkin spice flavored syrup and I am obsessed!

I can make me a pumpkin spice latte without having to go to Starbucks! How amazing is that?!

Fall Tiered Tray on Coffee Bar
Close up of my tiered tray on my coffee bar this year.

I also think styling my coffee bar and tiered trays for every season go hand and hand as well. I shared more in depth last year about how to style your tiered trays for fall.

Be sure to go give that post a look too if you’re stuck on how to style tiered trays. It definitely takes some practice, but once you get the hang of it, it’s so much fun!

Fall Front Porch

I always love to add real pumpkins and mums on my front porch for fall. They are so pretty and I love the rich colors they bring out.

They always look so good on my front porch steps too. I think it is the perfect welcoming entryway into our fall home this year!

Fall Front Porch

I went way more out on my decorating for my fall front porch last year, but this year I decided to keep it more simple.

Plus, it was more cost effective to do it this way. Real pumpkins from the farmer’s market are expensive y’all! See my pictures below on how I decided to decorate the front porch this year:

Other Small Fall Touches Around the Home

I just tried to add in as many fall touches as I could around my home. Even in my office space! As you can see below, I added in a few faux pumpkins on my open shelves in my office too.

It’s so simple and easy to add in a few faux pumpkins here and there around the home too. Plus, it is also an easy, inexpensive way to incorporate fall touches too!

Fall Office Shelves
Can you spot a few pumpkins here?!

Call me crazy, but I may have even put a few pumpkins on my bathroom open shelves too. I wanted my fall home tour to include as many pumpkins as possible!

And the good news is, they were all leftover pumpkins from a few years ago so I didn’t really have to purchase anything to add those cute seasonal touches to the space.

I always love it when I can save some money, but still go all out with decorations for the season!

Fall Home Tour Wrap Up

Well y’all, this concludes my fall home tour! I hope you all enjoyed it and are inspired to add in a few little seasonal pieces in your home too!

Do you go all out like I do? Or do you tend to keep it more neutral and simple?

Sometimes I crave simplicity, but most of the time (especially during the fall and Christmas season) I like to go all out! Let me know what you do below too!

Though this year I did make a fall wreath for my front door. You have inspired me to put a few fall touches around the house.

      Awe thank you so much. I am so glad you enjoyed it. And this has been a collection of fall stuff over the years! It takes awhile to get enough decor to decorate all these spaces. I definitely didn’t just run out and buy it all at once because that would be way too expensive lol

Vintage Americana decor has my heart ❤️🤍💙 There’s Vintage Americana decor has my heart ❤️🤍💙

There’s just something about decorating with old red, white, and blue treasures that makes a home feel extra cozy for summer. I love styling my dining room shelves with vintage Americana pieces, antique finds, and patriotic decor that can stay up from Memorial Day all the way through the Fourth of July and beyond!

Give me all the weathered flags, vintage crocks, old books, and classic Americana touches. 🇺🇸

I know some people pack away their patriotic decorations after July 4th, but I love leaving my summer patriotic decor out all season long. It just feels timeless to me!

Do you decorate with patriotic decor all summer, or do you switch things up after the Fourth of July? #vintageamericana #vintagepatriotic #americanadecor #americana #patrioticdecor
POV: being on surgery recovery leave for a month t POV: being on surgery recovery leave for a month turned me into a full-time homebody 🤣

Honestly, staying home healing after surgery has taught me one thing… I never want to leave my house again 😂 Being cozy at home with my cats, resting, binge watching shows, and avoiding the outside world has been absolutely glorious. I truly understand the “stay at home cat mom” lifestyle now lol.

At this point, I have everything I need right here at home. Peace, comfy clothes, snacks, my pets, and zero social obligations 🤣 Meanwhile, every time I actually leave the house, I come back completely exhausted.

So the fact that I have to go back to work today after a month of recovery is honestly going to be SUCH a rough adjustment 😅 I’m not mentally prepared to rejoin society yet lol. Anyone else secretly love being home way too much?!

Honestly, I’ve been struggling with the thought of Honestly, I’ve been struggling with the thought of going back to work while still recovering from surgery. Between the physical healing and the emotional side of post-surgery recovery, I’ve been feeling pretty down lately. So this comedy date night ended up being exactly what I needed.

We bought tickets to see @johnbcrist months ago, long before I had any idea I’d be spending a month on surgery leave. Turns out the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. This was our third time seeing him live, and he absolutely delivered. I laughed so hard that for a couple of hours, I completely forgot about returning to work, ongoing recovery, and all the stress waiting for me next week. 🤣

Before the show, we had dinner at @redgingerasianbistro and finished the night with dessert at @timesbarandcoffee which made the whole evening even better. Good food, lots of laughs, and quality time with my husband was exactly the distraction I needed.

Sometimes healing isn’t just about physical recovery. Sometimes it’s about finding little moments that remind you how good it feels to laugh again. ❤️ 

Have you ever had a random night out come at exactly the right time? #johncrist #johncristcomedy #comedyshow #datenightideas #asheville
Not me having to put on my sunglasses every time I Not me having to put on my sunglasses every time I have to chop onions because my eyes tear up so bad… 🤣

Ever since I had LASIK surgery a few years ago, chopping onions has been brutal on my eyes. I’m talking instant tears the second I start cutting them 😂 Apparently my eyes became extra sensitive afterward, and honestly it’s been a struggle ever since.

But then I heard about the “wear sunglasses while chopping onions” hack and y’all… why does it actually work?! 😅 So now anytime my hubby isn’t home to take over onion duty, you can catch me in the kitchen wearing sunglasses indoors looking ridiculous but tear-free 😎 

If you’ve ever wondered how to stop crying while cutting onions, consider this your sign to try the sunglasses trick! It may look silly, but it seriously helps block those onion fumes from hitting your eyes 👏

Now I need to know… does anyone else have weird kitchen hacks like this? 😂 #kitchenhacks #cookinghacks #onionhack #cookinghack #onions
Y’all already know I’ve been on a serious freezer Y’all already know I’ve been on a serious freezer meal kick lately since I unfortunately have to go back to work next week 😭 And let me tell you… having a freezer stocked full of easy homemade dinners is about to save me on those busy weeknights!

One of my all-time favorite freezer meals is this homemade chicken pot pie recipe 🥧✨ It definitely takes a little extra work, especially if you make the homemade pie crust from scratch; but trust me, it is SO worth it. The creamy chicken filling, flaky buttery crust, and cozy comfort food vibes make it one of the best dinners ever.

Anytime I make homemade chicken pot pie, I always make two: one for dinner now and one freezer meal for later. And this time, I took my extra frozen chicken pot pie to my sweet mama after her surgery yesterday 💛 It’s honestly the perfect meal to bring someone recovering from surgery, welcoming a new baby, or just going through a hard season because all they have to do is pop it in the oven for an easy homemade comfort meal.

If you love easy freezer meals, homemade comfort food recipes, or make-ahead dinners for busy families, you definitely need to try this one!

So instead of using the actual truck bed for two 1 So instead of using the actual truck bed for two 12-foot trees, he somehow decides cramming them into my SUV is the better option 🤣 And I’m still shocked they even fit. Barely 😅

Meanwhile, his shiny new truck is sitting safe and spotless in the garage where not a single speck of dirt or potting soil can touch it 😂🚙

I can’t believe it’s officially been one month sin I can’t believe it’s officially been one month since my endometriosis excision surgery. Honestly, I really thought by now I’d be coming on here saying I finally felt like myself again. I wanted this surgery to be the answer so badly. But the truth is… I’m still struggling every single day.

The lower back pain, hip pain, chronic fatigue, GI issues, insomnia, dizziness, and POTS-like symptoms are all still here. And while my surgeon was absolutely wonderful and removed the endometriosis she found, we’re now starting to realize there may be something more going on underneath it all.

Right now we’re exploring possibilities like EDS, MCAS, and POTS, which honestly feels overwhelming because getting doctors to truly listen and take women seriously can feel like a full time job in itself. I know so many women with chronic illness, endometriosis, and invisible illnesses understand exactly what I mean.

But even though I’m discouraged, I’m not giving up. I know my body, I know something still isn’t right, and I’ll continue advocating for myself until I get answers. And if sharing my story helps even one woman feel less alone in her own health journey, then it’s worth it 🤍 #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #endometriosis #endometriosisexcision #chronicallyill
Since I’ve been home recovering from surgery and g Since I’ve been home recovering from surgery and getting ready to head back to work next week, I’ve been stocking my freezer with all my favorite freezer-friendly meals, and this crockpot spaghetti sauce is always at the top of the list 🍝❤️

This easy slow cooker spaghetti sauce recipe is seriously my all-time favorite comfort food. There’s nothing better than a big plate of spaghetti with homemade meat sauce, especially when the crockpot does all the work for you! Just toss everything in, let it simmer low and slow all day, and your house smells AMAZING 🤤

One of the best parts? This recipe makes a huge batch, so I always freeze extra for easy weeknight dinners later on. Just thaw, heat, and dinner is basically done 🙌 Perfect for busy work weeks, meal prep, freezer cooking, and easy family dinners!

I love using fresh strawberries and blueberries to create the red, white, and blue patriotic design, and the sweet sugar cookie crust with creamy frosting makes it absolutely irresistible. Plus, it’s one of those quick and easy desserts that’s perfect whether you’re hosting a backyard BBQ, heading to a cookout, or just wanting a fun summer treat!

As we celebrate Memorial Day weekend with BBQs, fa As we celebrate Memorial Day weekend with BBQs, family gatherings, and time spent with loved ones, let’s not forget the true meaning of Memorial Day 🇺🇸❤️

This holiday is about honoring and remembering the brave men and women of our military who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and for this country we love so much. Because freedom is never free.

So while you enjoy the long weekend, fly your American flags proudly, hug your family a little tighter, and take a moment to remember the heroes who gave everything for the United States of America. Land of the free because of the brave. 🇺🇸 #america #memorialday #freedomisntfree #rememberthefallen #memorialdayweekend🇺🇸
