Area in Grand Rapids called Heritage Hill. Touring six different 19th century homes. Admiring the many gorgeous Victorian homes in the area while exploring the neighborhood.

Where there’s a will…. Spring things… →. Spring is coming, spring is coming! March 10, 2015. We are in a warming trend, like most of the U.S. Hurray! Still snow everywhere, but the kids have been biking, scootering (is that a word? And enjoying the above freezing temperatures. And here are some snow pictures taken last week, hopefully the last of the season. I plan to empty the window boxes, and wait. We live in a house of many windows,and glass door cabinets, which means I get the weirdest reflections i...

Master bath before and after. Winter fun →. February 12, 2015. Scott has been gone on business for a few days. I woke up the other morning to find this list on the counter:. I, on the other hand, rarely write lists. I have some general goals for the week, and long term goals way back in my mind, besides the regular stuff that needs to get done. (Laundry anyone?

Lowly Worm birthday party (part 1) – My Red Leather Notebook

https://myredleathernotebook.wordpress.com/2015/04/09/lowly-worm-birthday-party-part-1

My Red Leather Notebook. 8230;and a freshly sharpened pencil. Lowly Worm birthday party (part 1). April 9, 2015. April 9, 2015. It was a long, cold winter, so I spent a lot of time looking forward to Noah’s first birthday party. It would have been a lot of work if I tried to do it all in the week before, but since I spread it over about 3 months, it was just fun🙂 Many of my ideas stemmed from this blog post. Look like Lowly, but the icing was very delicious! I will post part 2 tomorrow, hopefully, with ...

Spice Rack Bookshelves – My Red Leather Notebook

https://myredleathernotebook.wordpress.com/2015/02/03/spice-rack-bookshelves

My Red Leather Notebook. 8230;and a freshly sharpened pencil. February 3, 2015. February 3, 2015. While looking for bookshelf ideas for the reading nook, I came across this Ikea Spice Rack idea. I originally had wanted to do rain gutter book shelves, like this:. I thought this would be more customizable for length, and Ikea is a bit far away for us, so it seemed easier. But it proved to just be a big pain, and more expensive! Oops Instead of making the big trip again, we ordered them online. Fill in your...

New Use for an Old Picture | Life at Walnut Grove

https://makingmyhouseahome.wordpress.com/2015/07/02/new-use-for-an-old-picture

Life at Walnut Grove. The musings of a dabbler in decorating and homemaking…. The Tomato Rescue →. New Use for an Old Picture. July 2, 2015. It’s amazing what one little change can trigger. A few months ago, I had to replace our comforter in our bedroom. By the simple act of purchasing a new one, I was suddenly thrust into painting the walls (and ceiling), buying and thrifting new accessories, refinishing our nightstands and dresser, and decluttering! Here’s a close-up:. And a final contrast:. Leave a Re...

Life at Walnut Grove. The musings of a dabbler in decorating and homemaking…. Heritage Hill Tour of Homes. Summertime = Cookingtime →. June 1, 2015. It’s easy to show you a lovely snapshot of our property and home. We truly do have:. Beautiful flower gardens…. A picturesque veggie patch…. A furry, purry companion…. And a lovely view outside of our back door…. Block the view by planting evergreens! Arborvitaes were placed along our deck:. Then a thought suddenly fills me: why the evergreens? This entry wa...

Life at Walnut Grove. The musings of a dabbler in decorating and homemaking…. Tomato-Pesto Pizza →. August 14, 2015. 8 o’clock is a perfect time. The summer heat is held back a little by the cooler night temperatures, the air is filled with the morning calls of birds squabbling at the feeders, and the sun is slowly climbing and shining its golden rays on one of our best plantings this year….morning glories! Am I ever glad we did that! This entry was posted in outdoor landscaping. Tomato-Pesto Pizza →.

Where there’s a will…. →. March 3, 2015. So I haven’t posted any pictures of winter around these parts. Somehow that seems like a December/January thing. However it is March, snowing outside, and it appears that winter is not going anywhere soon. So lets embrace our reality. Here are some outside pictures of the goings on around here. We are lucky to have a hill on the side of our property, so that provides a lot of easy to access fun. How has your winter been? View all posts by Lora →. You are commentin...

Where there’s a will…. | brightwood cottage

https://brightwoodcottage.wordpress.com/2015/03/06/where-theres-a-will

Spring is coming, spring is coming! Where there’s a will…. March 6, 2015. So what are soccer loving boys supposed to do when winter lasts forever and the ground is covered in about 15 inches of snow? Why, spend a couple of hours shoveling a piece of the backyard and set up a goal. Taylor and friend Chris shoveled and flattened enough of the snow in the yard to give themselves some room to practice shots on each other. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
