Patriotic Dish Pantry Organization

I have so many red, white, and blue dishes so I thought it would be fun to organize them by color. This patriotic dish pantry organization project was definitely more work than I had expected and I was wondering what the heck I was thinking after I started! At first, I did it with all the colors mixed together and I didn’t like it very much. I have a lot more blue and white dishes than red dishes and there was not enough red to balance it out. I then moved all the red to the middle and did white and blue above and below with more white on the top shelf.

Dish Collecting

I have been collecting dishes since my early twenties and I’ve accumulated some really beautiful pieces over the years. One of my favorites are polish pottery dishes. I have a lot of the blue stars pattern which is so fun to use for the patriotic holidays. I collected many of these when my

Fourth of July Party Tablescape Ideas

The Fourth of July is my favorite holiday besides Christmas. I absolutely love decorating with red, white, and blue and celebrating with friends and family. I’m sharing my Fourth of July Party Tablescape Ideas and all the details of how I set it all up.

I actually set up and photographed two different versions of this table because I was asked to be on a local TV station to share my scones and honey butter recipe and a patriotic tablescape. We taped the show three weeks before so I had to create it twice! I’m sharing all the photos of both set ups so you can see a few different variations here.

I am very patriotic and my country means a great deal to me. I have always had this love of country and I think it’s only grown stronger as the years

The Highland, Utah House – Sources

My Highland, Utah House – Sources

I get so many questions about all the finishes and furnishings in our Highland, Utah home so I’m finally sharing the details here! In this post I will list all the information that I have on the home. Many of the furnishings are no longer available but when I can link a source for something similar I will share that info or another option at the bottom of the post.

The Story Behind the Home

We purchased the home from Rachel and Drew Parcell in July of 2016. Rachel is a fashion blogger and I had started following her on Instagram in right before we bought the house. When I saw one of her posts showing her house I had thought it was a house I had seen in another Utah neighborhood years before called Stonegate. I even had pictures in my phone of this other home and didn’t realize they were different

Patriotic Home Decor Ideas

With Memorial Day just behind us and the Fourth of July coming soon I wanted to share some of my favorite Patriotic Home Decor Ideas. I prefer to keep my decorations simple and this year I tried to use all the things I had from the past few years. Once you invest in a few items, it’s easy to use the same things year after year. It just takes a little creativity and thinking outside the box.

The links and sources will all be at the bottom of the post so scroll down!

The Kitchen Decor

With my kitchen being so white and bright, it makes the red and blue patriotic decorations really stand out. If your kitchen is darker in colors, mix some rustic wood decorations along with red, white, and blue colors. I do this at my other home in Washington as my kitchen is much darker

Transitional + French Country Master Bedroom

Every Spring I like to do a little update to our master bedroom so I set out to create a transitional + french country master bedroom vibe. I love the new updates to our bedroom in the Highland house and how simple it was to give it a fresh look. The main color in the bedroom before was a sea salt blue and I wanted to change it to more of a french blue color.

Here is the before:

Here is the after:

I wanted a rug that was a little bigger. This size is a 9′ x 13′ which is the perfect size for my master bedroom.

The Rug

An area rug can make a big statement and transform a room. It adds color and texture and instantly warms up any space. The standard rug for
