Now that my Christmas decorations are packed away *ahem* it’s starting to look a lot like spring around here! I’ve been working on spring cleaning and adding a few new additions to spruce up the place… I love how every spring I seem to fall in love with our home all over again! I just love fixing the place up for the sun! So come on in and sit a spell… I’d love to show you around!
Whew that was a lot of pictures! Is your scrolling finger tired yet? I know mine is! *wink wink* As a reward for staying with me through the entire spring home tour I will show you my latest prized possession! That’s right I finally found the perfect hallway runner! When I first spotted it at TJMaxx I think I about hyperventilated. My hubby didn’t ask any questions… just picked it up and put it in the cart. It helps that it’s the perfect shade of blue and the perfect pattern to help tie the living room and bedroom rugs together. Plus I’ve been looking for over a year… I think he’s just excited to be done with the search!
Thanks so much for dropping by! You’re welcome any time… especially in about a week when this place needs to be cleaned again!
P.S. If you think all my rooms look like the pretty pictures above don’t be fooled… there’s a reason our guest room needs a makeover!

Come to my house and help! Seriously, I love your style. And that blue hutch! What a dream. Thanks for sharing.

Haha! I would love to! The hutch is definitely one of our favorite pieces… And it looks even better blue!
Andréa Christine says
I love your blue color palette! I think it works so perfectly in every season, especially spring! Your home is absolutely beautiful.
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Thanks Andrea, I love the blue! It goes with so many different colors and my hubby likes it to. Which is a bonus!
Amanda @ Old House to New Home says
I LOVE those shelves with the blue backing and that pallet art is adorable too! I fall in love with my home again in spring time too! There is nothing like being able to open the windows again to bring life into the house!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Exactly! That fresh air is the best feeling in the whole world!
Logan Can says
You have a beautifully decorated home! I love the rustic chic look.
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
So that’s what it is… I never can put my finger quite on my “style” haha! Thanks for stopping by Logan!
Meg @ Green With Decor says
Love your house! I love the throw pillows and curtains in the bedroom – and that shelf with the blue bottles!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Thanks for stopping by Meg! I love how the bedroom is shaping up, the throw pillows have been a work in progress so I’m glad you like them!
Crystal says
Home tours are my favorite!! Love your gallery wall above your couch! And I love the pallet wall art! Where did you find the “God is good all the time”?
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
I’m with you Crystal, I love seeing other people’s homes! Thanks for the sweet words…. I actually found the “God is good…” Sign at Hobby Lobby about a year ago! My hubby fell in love with it and it goes so perfectly with our decor… I don’t know if they still have it or not. Maybe it will rotate back in, does Hobby Lobby do that? Haha!
Justine Y @ Little Dove Creations says
So pretty! I love the colors in your house!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
That’s so sweet! I’m glad you liked it!
Lois says
Your house is so beautiful! I love all your paris items, spotted a few in your pictures 🙂 I’d love an update of your guest room when you get round to it! 🙂 xxx
Addie says
I am absolutely in LOVE with your decor and furniture! The vintage + modern charm is everything =) and I love the lightness of your spring decor =)
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Thanks Addie! I tend to combine things I love and hope it works out! Haha!
Hannah Diane says
So pretty!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Thanks Hannah! We love it 😉
Britney says
Gorgeous! I get a cozy cottage vibe 🙂
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Thanks so much Britney! I get the cozy cottage thing! I will just keep a running list of all the styles and then come up with an atrociously long acronym!
Jessica says
It’s so hard to put away the Christmas decor! haha… Your house is super cute! It’s like a showroom or something!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
It kills me every year! Last year with our wedding in May we were so busy and stressed the Christmas decorations didn’t come down until June! Yikes! So this year I will count April as a step in the right direction! Haha! We live it when our house is tidied up and clean but most of the time it is definitely not a showroom! It does take pretty pictures though!
Zan says
Beautifully decorated home! The guest room is my favorite room..:)
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Haha, thanks Zen! We just refer to the guest room as my hubby’s closet… With all the crap in the way I’m not sure how he even makes it to the closet! Honestly I’ve stopped going in there… Every time I try he’s made a bigger mess!
Farrah says
My goodness, your home is so beautiful! <3 Blue is my favorite color, so I'll admit I'm on the slight side of biased, but ahh! Everything looks so nice! :] I can't wait to one day have a house of my own!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Thank you Farrah! You’re so sweet! I’m definitely a blue fan so I understand why you’re partial. 😉 We’re still renting but the feeling of having our own house is amazing… one day we will own and that will be even more amazing! Keep the dream going! We’ll get there!
Teresa says
I realize the post is one from APRIL, but hoping you can still see my comments/question… I love your style, ideas, decor, etc. WOW! You are very talented!!! What brand, type is the blue paint (and color) that you used on your beautiful hutch? I love it. Thanks!
Happily Ever After, Etc. says
Don’t worry Teresa… I can still see it! Thank you so much for your sweet words, I am so glad you like my little slice of the world here! The blue color on my hutch is none other than Annie Sloan’s Greek Blue… just like all of those amazing blue dome roofs in Greece! It’s a stunner… that’s for sure! Thanks for stopping by!
