If you’re new here, welcome! My name is Kim and I’ve lived in Michigan my entire life. I have three amazing sons, two beautiful daughter-in-laws, one precious granddaughter and an amazing husband. As you can probably guess, I love all things home decor and DIY. I also make blankets for a cause hoping to help find a cure for brain tumors.

This Week On The Blog

It was a busy week here in the Mitten! Earlier this week, I shared The Prettiest Purple Cottage Blanket Wrapped With Love. It’s a great story about fate, the kindness of others and lots of love.

Are you thinking about spring time and Easter? I know I am!

I also shared How To Create A Simple Blue & Pink Easter Table. Some of my friends shared their Easter tables, too. If you didn’t get a chance to see all the inspiration, head on over and take a look around.

Welcome Home Saturday – Round-Up

Now, on to our Welcome Home Saturday round-up! There is so much inspiration this week!

Please make sure you visit my talented friends from WHS! I know you will love their blogs as much as I do!

    Best spring blog! Beautiful pics, links and ideas! The bird house is so sweet and we all have rocks, shells and glass picked up at the beach, woods, or wherever we’ve gone for respite. What a great reminder or those places.
    Going to set my table this week just for the fun of it!
    Love all the links.

    Adorable bird house. I love that you make the quilts for brain cancer.

    My mom died from brain cancer when I was 26. Close to my heart.

Good morning!! I am happy to report that it’s Good morning!! 

I am happy to report that it’s going to be a White Christmas in the Mitten, this year! We have had crazy wind and blowing snow, but it’s supposed to clam down by this afternoon! 

I know the snow is complicating travel and Christmas plans for some of you and I pray you all get where you are going, safe and sound! 

I’m signing off for a few days to enjoy some much needed time with my family! I’m so grateful to celebrate the reason for the season! 

I’m sharing some photos from my Christmas home tour in case you missed it! 

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas! May it be merry and bright! 

Peace and Blessings, 

Kim ❤️🎄
