Mod Mix Monday #199

 via
I'm in love with this little corner of this kitchen. 

My faves from last time's Mod Mix Monday are...
 Pam of Everyday Living made these lemon rosemary short breads.
She included the recipe and I'm dying to try them!
A walk through the garden at Priscilla's. That's Ronnie her dog waiting for you at the end of the path.

 Penny of Penny's Treasures shared her creative container gardening. 
I adore this chandelier in a flower pot.
 Vickie of Ranger 911 has been busy painting. 
Isn't this a cute display?
Love this summer display at Priscilla's.

Sorry posting has been few and far between.
I'm doing the best I can these days.

Mod Mix Monday #198

Isn't this such a fresh room? I love how they've mixed that serious antique desk with the 60's 
mod chair. 
This room is very traditional but the lamps, accessories and fabrics keep the room from
being stodgy. 

Faves from last week's Mod Mix Monday...
 Priscilla shared how her garden is growing.
 I especially love this photo...magical.
 Pam of Everyday Living showed off her pretty bedroom all done up for Summer.
I love the colors in this room.
Christine of Rustic Refined showed off her industrial farm house dining room. 
Lots of good stuff in this room.

Mod Mix Monday #197

I love this kitchen! Isn't that green cabinet fun? Talk about a one of a kind kitchen!
It's just so quaint and pretty. 

So I'm back with Mod Mix Monday...very late...but better late than never...I suppose.
And there were soooo many good things in the last Mod Mix Monday that I have lots of faves.
Here we go!
 Look at the color in this outdoor table scape from Pam at Everyday Living!
 Jamie of So Much Better with Age shared a cute sign she has hanging in her 
shall I say elegant laundry room. 
Wow! I love this room.
Vickie at Ranger 911 shared some changes in her living room.
 Darrielle of DD's Cottage shared some pretty vignettes from around her house...
but this was by far the prettiest. 
Her dog lounging in the living room.
 Angie of Postcards from the Ridge shared her dining room and the blue touches in the living room.
This room makes me SMILE just like the pillow says.
 Summer flowers from Jan at Just Jan Blog
Cecilia of My Thrift Store Addiction took a risk and painted her stove the prettiest shade 
of green and it was a huge success!
She was inspired by the vintage looking stoves made by Big Chill that cost over $5000.
I have drooled over those stoves myself. I'll be anxious to hear how this paint job holds up.

Mod Mix Monday #196

Loving all these bright pastels!

Thanks to all that wrote expressing concern over my post July 4th blues.
Not to worry it's nothing super serious...but I do go into a funk after the 4th every year.
It makes me feel like summer is ending although I know it's just starting.
It stems from childhood. 
My Mom taught school and the 4th is when she started talking
about getting ready for the new school year.
She would go back the first week in August. My Dad hated it when she went back.
But she had to go back. They both had to work. And she wanted to work.
But school came first before everything else and we all felt it.
And now...as a middle aged adult...I still can't get over that feeling of dread that 
the summer is ending...even when it doesn't effect me at all any more. 

But all of you seem to be having a great summer! Just look at the things you are creating!
Sarah of Edea Smith made a very pretty display using a vintage window.
 Karen of Somewhat Quirky Design shared this headboard that she painted in a fabulous way!
 You'll be amazed by all the gorgeous flowers growing in Priscilla's front yard!
 Darrielle of DD's Cottage gave a little look of her home. This is her newly done vintage bath.
I love everything about this!
 Mary of Orphans with Make Up painted this little vanity and added some extra special details.
I'd love to sit at this to do my makeup each morning!
 And finally look at this media center Kris of Junk Chic Cottage created to house her
60 inch tv!

Mod Mix Monday #193

Oh...I love this comforter! How fun is this bedroom? I know it's not practical cause there is
a staircase right next to the bed and a piano on one side but I like the look of it all.
Especially that comforter.

Summer will soon be upon us and I found inspiration in last week's Mod Mix Monday.
  Priscilla shared how to make a cute daisy wreath but take a look at her yard 
and all the pretty things blooming in it!
Priscilla also shared her latest chalkboard art.
 Jan of Just Jan shared a table all set for dining outdoors.
 She also shared her flower filled living room. 
Very Chintzy! In a very good way.
