Stunning spring porch ideas

Happy Saturday everyone! I know I promised to show you my bathroom makeover today, but I just haven't gotten it completely finished yet. I was really on a roll, but I woke up the other morning not feeling too hot and found out I have a sinus infection. I just can't completely shake this thing and have spent the past week operating at about 50%.

I thought today would be perfect for sharing some stunning porches with you. Our new home has a nice size covered front porch and I am so excited at the thought of furnishing and decorating it! It is the first time we have every had a real front porch. So to help get myself inspired I found these lovely dream porches.

Stamped burlap art

Happy Thursday everyone! This week is just flying by. With the kids on spring break we've been busy trying to do activities plus still do all our week night regulars like soccer practice, dance, taekwondo classes etc.

I've been trying to finish up my main floor half bath makeover this week, but I'm just not quite ready yet. Yesterday I was able to squeeze in one little art project for the bathroom though.




I've been seeing tons of cool burlap projects floating around Pinterest and wanted to try something simple.


I just used a leftover piece of burlap and a picture frame I already had. I used a foam stamp from my scrapbooking supplies and just stamped directly onto the burlap. To finish off the frame I used some leftover fabric to make a flower and hot glued it to the frame. Simple, quick and easy {my favorite}!

I'm hoping to finish up the bath today so I can show you all tomorrow! Fingers crossed!
Have a great day! Remember my link party is still going on if you haven't linked up yet!
