This week there’s another awesome giveaway for one lucky winner…
A Great Impression will be giving a $25.00 credit towards anything in her shop.  Just in time to help add some new decor for Spring.
(more details on entering at the bottom of this post.)
This week, I decided “Buck” needed a new Spring outfit.  Some may recall, for Winter he sported some red houndstooth.  But with Spring here, he needed an update along with some Spring accessories…

I’ve been trying {several} times to score a vintage map off of Ebay, but have been outbidded every time.  After seeing this atlas map that I got at HobLob with a coupon,  I’m thinking I like it for a $4.99 outfit.
The vintage prints of cocoons & butterflies ARE an ebay score from a book printed in 1898!  I have plans to show off the book, because trust me, it’s post worthy. 
I’m lovin’ Buck’s new look for Spring.

  4. Buck’s new look rocks! I love the Chandelier wall art for my daughter’s room, but would also love a monogram for our foyer… super giveaway! Thanks for hosting!

  5. My favorites over at a Great Impression are the Paris France Girly Styled Room decals. These would be AWESOME in my daughter’s room! We’re redecorating it in a Paris theme.

  6. The mantle looks so great! I love the blue eggs in the frame. 🙂 Buck looks great too! 😉 I have no idea what I would pick from Great Impressions. They have TONS of cute stuff. I do like the birds on the branch and the laundry room sign. 🙂 Have a great week!!!

  8. Such a spring mantle! The bird eggs are so adorable…I love birds and watching them build nests too! the butterflies and catterpillars are so cool…that book must be neat to look at such lovely prints, I have some old books too(and old bibles)
    I like the map as the back drop for your antlers…very calming place for the “whole world”
    The forsythia will be bursting forth any day! Looking forward to more signs of spring on your blog! Come on over to see some pretty spring flowers from my garden…I am counting the days…
    Lots of love, Jennifer aka Gigi (next week food!!!!!!!!!!!)

  10. I love the robins eggs framed! I didn’t know your blog when ‘Buck’ wore houndstooth but I like the map and the fact that you accessorize Buck.

    My jaw dropped when I read about those prints coming from a book printed in 1898. I’m not sure I would have had the courage to remove pages but they are lovely. Can’t wait to hear more about the book.

    My favorite item at A Great Impression is the decorative bird. Love the colors to choose from.

  12. I like the As For me and My house saying!

    I forgot to mention in my previous post how much i like your pretty vignette. Those pastel eggs are so cute in the apothecary jar and I love the bird eggs in the frame too!

  13. Thanks for having me today. Even though it is Autumn here the weather is very spring-like here in Oz so I thought I would join in with your Spring party!

    Best wishes always,
    Natasha.

  14. Okay, seriously…after I saw ‘Buck’ all decked out in his red houndstooth, I had to have one of my own! And now THIS!!!!????
    I l.o.v.e. it!
    I keep bugging my brother-in-law about giving me a set of his antlers…you’ve just given me reason to put the pressure on!
    Cheers…and thank-you!

  16. Buck is looking spiffy! I love the little frame with the eggs. I have a couple of frames I couldn’t decide what to do with. I might just copy your idea because I love it. Spring is looking very good in your house this year.

  17. Thanks for hosting Kellie and your Buck looks AWESOME!!!!

    now I’m off to check out some of the other links and the vinyl!!

  18. So many great graphics! I love the ‘do what you love, love what you do ‘ quote, it would be great to hang in my studio! What a great giveaway!

  20. My favorite is the “I can do all things” decal – This is probably my favorite scripture & it would be amazing.

  21. Hello Kellie,

    I found my wood corbels at Home Depot…no one else had the simple look I wanted, they were all too Victorian. These looked great with the lines of the beadboard.

    have a lovely day
