Hi everyone!! It's been a while, but I'm back sharing the winter storm here on the homestead as well as some decorating inside inspired by the winter landscape! There's a blog post linked in the description box above with details, but drop any questions you might have here in the comments:-)
There's a lot of channels that say their decorating videos but to me look like commercials for big box store. Nothing wrong with something new now and then, but using what we've been blessed with is the ticket. Love watching your channel and wish you could make more.
Goodness! I wish you could come to my home and help me decorate in such a personal manner! I love all your videos. Your style reflects how I WANT my home to look. I'd love to have the help translating the look I desire in my head, into reality. 💖
I appreciate the kind words Nicole☺️ You can certainly do it! Just experiment until you find what you like☺️ I do that a lot, and sometimes it takes me a while but I keep trying til I get what I like☺️☺️
Oh Anita, so cozy and beautiful. My decor is similar to yours....antique and full of history and heritage I love looking at your home decor....please continue to show us. It has a warmth that fills me with contentment. And reminds me I am not the only one to cherish old things filled with history and family. God bless! From cold Michigan. 🌬❄🌨
Anita, Your home is beautiful, peaceful, and cozy. The video of the outside was breathtaking. I just kept thinking what an awesome God we have, to have created such beauty. We have so much to be thankful for. I am thankful for you, sharing this beautiful video. You my dear are a blessing!
Dear Sally, thank you so much!! It’s so discouraging to get lost in all the noise out here on social so your encouragement is so welcomed, and I’m thankful for you☺️☺️
Thank the Lord for the beauty and peace we get to see here, it rests the soul and eyes. Anita, you did an amazing job with the video, are you playing the piano ? Have you ever thought about writing a book ? It would be a wonderful read, your time in service, you and hubby in Vegas and now "back home" with family in these beautiful mountains. You looked so beautiful out walking in the woods. You are an amazing woman.
Thank you so much! I’d love to write some kind of decor book☺️ We were not in Vegas though. We were both musicians in the USAF band program and traveled around the world entertaining troops, dignitaries, etc. ☺️☺️
@@WhisperingPinesHomestead I have Fostoria glasses, too. I’m a dish collector and love creating tablescapes, also. I have just completed watching all of your videos and will be awaiting the next one😊
All of your videos are filled with such beauty and peace. Thank you for sharing your home. I was wondering if you have always enjoyed the jeweled colors and darker walls? What color is the Living Room painted?
Thank you Donna!! I go back and forth - I love dark, rich color and after having very light walls for a while, I found the dark color is soooooo good for letting art and accessories really shine. This is such a neutral, that I can use any color accent, and I love how things look against it. The master and living room are both Kilz Color Collection Dark Umber, a very warm gray. In the bedroom, I just love that it feels so cool in summer and warm and cozy in winter. The only place I don’t like it is in my hallway, and only because it’s dark, and I want the wood trim I restored to stand out so I’ll probably paint that, but probably a medium shade.
It was all so breath taking at first it felt like the beginning of a great move with the music, loved it and then your home, oh my it is all just gorgeous, thank you so much for this video, I will watch it over and over again like the others
Susan you are so encouraging, and you have no idea how much it means to me! Thank you so much because that is what keeps me going and hopefully sharing something that brings some peace and maybe inspiration to others❤️❤️😬
I am a newbie and have been binge watching you on all your platforms I can find,lol❤😂 Your arrangements are usually so full of rich colors for example the Queensland PKaufman fabric!!! Love it! Was it hard to go to this sparkling but neutral plus green ? I keep thinking of trying it but I think it would take getting used to. How do you know when something is just new and different OR a plain old big mistake😅?
Ah such a good question! For me it’s trial and error, and even if I feel like it’s not working, I’ll play with it and add and take away until I do like it. Funny enough, with the neutrals, I always kind of “cleanse the color palette😉” right after Christmas, and I played around with that look but it didn’t work for me until I took all the red out - as much as I could and left the creams/whites with green. I find neutrals very restrictive that way, so as much as I loved it for a few weeks, I started adding color and pattern back in, so spring was a riot of color😂 Seriously, though it takes tweaking and playing with combinations one might think don’t work only to find out they might be just the perfect combination☺️☺️ So I find sometimes a “reset” just helps to clear everything - especially after Christmas when there’s so much going on, and then I appreciate the gradual addition of color and pattern so much more☺️☺️ Oh - my blog (linked in the description box) has lots of ideas from 12 years of blogging, but it’s currently down for some maintenance and we’ll be back up in a couple days☺️ Also I will show some of the behind the scenes trials and errors on Instagram☺️
