I love sharing how I styled our Spring kitchen in our Waco Airbnb. This breakfast with my homemade blueberry muffins is delicious.
Welcome to an amazing Spring Home Tour featuring thirty gorgeous homes. Today I am sharing a Spring kitchen tour in our Waco Airbnb. I styled our kitchen for a spring breakfast and I am sharing my favorite Blueberry Muffin recipe. It seems with everything happening in the world right now, I thought this might be a nice “distraction” to share.
Spring Home Tour
This home tour features thirty homes and is hosted by Marty at A Stroll Thru Life. If you are coming here from Christy’s blog, A Southern Home, then welcome!
Be sure and scroll to the bottom of this post to see all of these gorgeous homes.
Waco Airbnb
Last year we purchased a small home in Waco, Texas. We bought the home to fix up and rent as an Airbnb.
The home was a disaster and needed a major renovation. It took almost a year, but it is finally done. You can see the renovation progress here and here.
I love the kitchen in our home so much. It’s light and open and the perfect place to cook and entertain.
The Kitchen
Since this tour was a spring tour, I decided to do a spring kitchen tour and set the island for a spring breakfast.
I found the plates at Marshall’s. They aren’t listed online but I bought them last week. They were priced really well at a price under $10 for four melamine plates.
I also found the spring paper coffee cups from Rae Dunn. I love the pink drink sleeves.
I love these woven cotton placemats from World Market that I found.
All of the drinking glasses in our Airbnb (and in our home in California) are Ball jars. I love these jars and I think they make the best drinking glasses.
Our island is a vintage counter that I found at the Round Top Antique fair last spring. I replaced the thin worn wood top with an off-the-shelf butcher block counter that I found at the local hardware store. The island has two huge pull-out storage bins on the sink side that are great for storage! And the counter stools are from World Market.
The light green/blue/gray island was the inspiration for my simple decor. It seems that every time I look at our island it is a different color so I will continue to call it green/blue/gray. The plates are the perfect match for all three colors!
I found the Flower Market sign at Oh Sweet Sky. I love that I can pick a design and then choose my own colors and frame for my sign.
I never realized how much fun it is to add seasonal decor to a kitchen. I purchased both the vase and cake stand at the Magnolia Discount Shop on Bosque in Waco.
My Blueberry Muffin Recipe
One of my favorite breakfast treats to make are Blueberry Muffins. I have made this recipe since I was ten years old. It’s only four steps and really easy to make! You might want to make this with your kids. The best part is, of course, that they are so delicious.
Leslie's Easy Blueberry Muffins
Blueberries are my favorite and I love to make these muffins.
The recipe is so simple (it's only four steps) and these muffins are delicious.
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- two large cartons of fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat over to 400 and grease muffin tins.
- Using the two bowl method, mix the egg, milk, and oil in one bowl and the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in the other bowl.
- Combine both and add blueberries. Stir till lumpy.
- Bake 8 - 10 minutes.
I hope you enjoyed the tour. Maybe someday you can stay at our Airbnb in Waco, Tx.

My son is in 7th grade and one of his assignments is to make a new recipe. I have frozen blueberries, will that work in your recipe? Also, I Will cook in this kitchen one day soon. Where did you find the lights above the island?
Sad the Antique Fair isn’t happening this spring and hope Round Top is open this fall. I’d love to find an old island similar to yours! Love your place. Happy Spring!
Happy Spring to you, too! Round Top is full of GREAT finds, I am sure you will find what you are hoping for.
What a lovely kitchen! Love the light fixtures, that pretty island and well, all the farmhouse charm.
