Mod Mix Monday #185

 via
I am very much aware that there isn't anything modern about the above other than
it is happening in a modern world.
I just love that small porch. What a pretty spot to have a morning cup of tea.
Love those chairs and the chandelier and the lace curtains.
Pier 1 has a new line of outdoor furniture that looks very similar to these chairs.
 Isn't it nice?
 Actually, I'm thinking these would make great host & hostess chairs in my dining room.
Something else to wish for.
In the meantime here are my favorites from last week's Mod Mix Monday!
First up....look at this lovely beadboard bed tray made of scavenged items found by Joan of
Scavenger Chic. I think this might be the prettiest bed tray I've seen.
Luann of Lovely Livings set a pretty Easter table.
Darrielle of DD's Cottage did a unusual paint job on this little dresser.
Don't you like the bits of real wood showing through?
A pretty pony themed birthday party at Simply Suzannes.
Ann of Duct Tape and Denim shared a tutorial on how to make tape measure bracelets.
I love the mix of the old tape with a rhinestone pin.
Note to self - Make one of these!

Please join in this week's Mod Mix Monday!
Remember anything old made over to be new...anything new changed up to look old.
New and old together...

Great pics.
I have an enclosed front porch and I set it up with a comfy chair to sit out there to read and I felt....
uncomfortable.
Lots of people walking by and I felt like they were looking at me...
Or maybe at the HUGE dog barking at them and all the tiny ones yipping beneath him.
Or maybe it was the cats on the ledges or the one draped over my shoulders....
;)
