Simple Everyday Floral Arrangement
Simple Everyday Floral Arrangement
It probably doesn’t get any easier than this…
A small container, a few white flowers (almost always faux for me and my black thumb) …
And I have a very pretty and very simple floral arrangement that I can keep out practically all year long.
Easy peasy!
Unless, you are like me, and also love the one-stem flower in a bottle look. That’s even easier to put together and just as lovely, in my book at least.
For my container, I’m using a small sugar bowl that I have used over and over again for decorating. It’s become a very loyal sugar bowl/flower container throughout the years 🙂
Then I’m using a few faux flowers and that’s it, no filler in the vase to keep them in place, no water, the beauty of faux, just a wire cutter to make sure they are the perfect length for my vase…sugar bowl…flower container…floral arrangement…
For my simple everyday floral arrangement. Phew, that intro was harder than I thought it would be!
Please excuse my silly and slightly confusing humor. Ok, here we go…
Simple Everyday Floral Arrangement
A loyal sugar bowl…
Four faux flowers (a tongue twister for sure) …
Bring them together and it’s a match made in heaven.
(Flowers: local dollar store … round sugar bowl: IKEA, purchased a few years ago … soap dish: Walmart … cinnamon/sugar containers: local dollar stores.)
(Sugar & cinnamon: neighborhood supermarket, kitchen backsplash: husbands blood, sweat, and tears 😌🙃😌🙃)
Hope you enjoyed this simple everyday floral arrangement!

My Simple Holiday Decorations for 2022
My Simple Holiday Decorations for 2022
Hello friends!
So the holidays may be over, but I thought it would be nice to go ahead and share some of the holiday decorations that I never got around to sharing for 2022.
At first, I thought it would be kind of funny to post this after the holidays, but I was kind of feeling as if the holidays were still here. I actually still have our Christmas decorations up and all around the house. We honestly never really want to put our tree or decorations away right after the holidays, my husband can actually keep everything out ’til the end of January if I let him!
Do you put your decorations away right after the holidays? Or do you like to keep them out a bit longer, and admire them a little longer than you should, like we do?
Well, either way I hope you enjoy this simple collection of my holiday decorations for 2022.
My Simple Holiday Decorations for 2022
Fall pumpkins meet a rose gold poinsettia…
The smallest “storage cart” known to mankind (a Target find a few months ago)…
This one may be my favorite. Silver glitter in a tiny shot glass with a mini blue ornament along with a snowflake ornament…
Old holiday cards on my bedroom wall (One was slightly more worthy than the other two to be framed and decorated with one of my necklaces)
Then I just taped the other two cards to the wall. I know, scandalous. Don’t worry walls, the hubby’s ready with a paintbrush for when these cards come down.
A cute penguin…
and a very girly pink ornament…
And this one is done!
Hope you enjoyed my simple holiday decorations, until next time!
Thanks for stopping by.

Holiday Centerpieces
Holiday Centerpieces
I’m pretty sure I’ve said this before somewhere on this blog…
What I find to be great about working with artificial flowers is that no matter what season I’m in, I can use any type of flower my heart desires.
They last forever you know 😉
That’s why I’m using tulips for one of my centerpieces. They have been sitting in my closet for months now and I never made use of them. So I decided why not use them for Christmas!
Hope you enjoy these two simple, but oh-so-beautiful, holiday centerpieces.

Gift shopping, wrapping, decorations, cards, meals….
The holidays are a busy time of year.
It can bring on some stress for me and feel a bit overwhelming at times. But I love everything (well, mostly everything) about it. I never like stress ☺️
However, right before I started putting this centerpiece together I realized something…
We are celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
When I realized this, it suddenly gave me something to focus on when I feel overwhelmed or stressed about the holidays.
It gave me a sense of peace. It reminded me that I was working on something really special.
So I guess it makes sense now why there’s so much going on during the holidays.
It’s our Lord and Savior’s birthday after all.
It’s kind of a BIG deal you know 😉
I hope that gives you a sense of joy and peace as well if you feel overwhelmed or stressed around the holidays too.
I hope you enjoy this “simple” and sparkly centerpiece. It may be as bright as a disco ball, but it makes me happy every time I see it.
My Simple Winter Wonderland Coffee Table Centerpiece
I start with a sprig of dried leaves on an old white platter (that I use all the time to decorate).
Then I place rhinestone stickers on a drinking glass.
and finish with a white candle…
A large silver snowflake ornament…
and a snow globe (From the Christmas Tree Store) to join my candle and dried leaves.
and that’s it!
A sparkly snowflake…
A white candle surrounded by pretty jewels (from the Dollar Store of course)
And I have a beautiful centerpiece that can only be described best as…
My own little winter wonderland!
On my coffee table that’s usually covered with cheerios, books, and all sorts of nick nacks.
ok, that’s it…hope you enjoyed this!
