I wanted to share another photo from last nights dinner party. ⁣ ⁣ This one is pretty amazing. ⁣ ⁣ The light is a little over saturated but I don’t care. I love this photo!⁣ ⁣ Thanks so much to all of you who purchased the personalized place cards from my daughter-in-law Charlotte @peonyperfection. She has been very busy today!⁣ ⁣ I hope you all saw the DIY’s in my post today to make the hanging lights and stenciled napkins. ⁣ ⁣ If not, just click on the link on my Instagram home page for a direct link. ⁣ ⁣ The DIY for the wood table tops is coming later this week. Finally!⁣ ⁣ https://my100yearoldhome.com/entertaining-in-the-backyard/

What an evening!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Last night was magical and I loved every minute of it. We hosted Dave’s family for dinner and I loved being able to create a magical evening. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ It was relaxing and fun and really special. The food was delish but casual and I loved it. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ On the blog today I shared how to create an evening like this and the hanging lanterns, place cards, napkins and more. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ My daughter in law Charlotte made the place cards. You can find them and much more on her Etsy page. Head to @peonyperfection. ⁣ ⁣ It was such a wonderful evening and I can’t wait to share it with you. ⁣⁣ ⁣ To find my blog post, tap on the link on my Instagram Home page. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ https://my100yearoldhome.com/entertaining-in-the-backyard/⁣

The table is set and ready for tonight’s family dinner. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I am so in love with these lights! I made them and I can’t wait to share them on my blog post tomorrow!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I don’t have time to elaborate but this is going to be an amazing dinner. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I am cooking dinner for 13!⁣ ⁣ Click the link on my Instagram home page to see the last party I hosted in our back yard. https://my100yearoldhome.com/tips-to-entertaining-in-your-own-backyard/

Before and Afters are so much fun. ⁣ ⁣ This is the dining and living room in our Waco Airbnb. (I am standing in the kitchen taking this photo.)⁣ ⁣ This large room use to be three rooms and the wood ceilings were covered in drywall (we didn’t even know they were there).⁣ ⁣ Swipe to see the before. ⁣ ⁣ Opening up this entire side of the house was a must because this is the side of the house where I added the wrap around porch. ⁣ ⁣ Furnishing the homes was my favorite part as I used a fun combination of vintage pieces and new. All of the new furniture is from @overstock. ⁣ ⁣ You can read all about how I planned and shopped for this home if you tap on the link in my Instagram home page. ⁣ ⁣ https://my100yearoldhome.com/how-i-bought-furniture-for-our-waco-fixer-upper-project/

Happy weekend!⁣ Today I am sharing the most amazing home. ⁣ ⁣ Terri @simplyfrenchmarket has The. Most. Gorgeous. Home. ⁣ ⁣ They remodeled it quite a bit but it is done and it is perfect. ⁣ ⁣ I mean really perfect. Swipe left to see a few more photos. ⁣ ⁣ Then head on over to @simplyfrenchmarket and give Terri a follow. ⁣ ⁣ Her taste is exquisite and I love everything she does. ⁣ ⁣ Way to go Terri. You home is just stunning my friend.

I love the morning light in our kitchen. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I also love when I can smell the coffee brewing. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I love being the first one up in the morning. I can sit on the couch with Sport with my cup of coffee and finish the sudoku before Dave is looking for the Sports page. ⁣⁣ ⁣ Today is one of those mornings. ⁣ ⁣⁣ When they built this house 105 years ago they managed to capture the perfect light in every room. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Which means I don’t own any professional lights for the photos you see here. I also still take 99% of my photos with my iPhone. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ You could say I wing it. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ But I wouldn’t have it any other way. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Can you guess how long ago we remodeled our kitchen? Tap the link on my Instagram home page to find out. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ https://my100yearoldhome.com/happy-20th-birthday-to-our-kitchen/
