Simple and Romantic Spring Tablescape

Home Decor· Spring· Tablescape· The Seasonal Home

14 Mar

Today we’re sharing a simple and romantic spring tablescape that is sure to inspire you!

Dear Spring,


It’s me, a pleading Minnesotan who desperately needs some warmer weather, more daylight and sunshine.

You’re welcome to show your face around here anytime you’d like.

Sooner, rather than later, please.

I know we say this every year. And you’re probably getting tired of hearing our heartfelt pleas and bargaining requests.

But if you had any idea the sub zero temperatures winter has put us through this season, you’d understand why this year’s invitation is filled with extra eagerness.

Our snow boots, wool socks and winter jackets need a serious break. Our propane guy has seen us way too many times and we’re up to owing seven cases of beer to our neighbor for his plowing services.

So you see, we’re ready. Our pasty white skin is in need of some color. Our yard is pleading for rain and sunshine. Our cabins want to come out of hibernating and our boats are being called back to the lake.

And guess what? We know you’re ready too. You’ve been teasing us with these 30 and 40 degree days. You’ve melted a lot of the snow. You’ve even let us drive a few times with the windows cracked!

We know winter puts up a tough fight. The straight days of -40+ degrees have been proof that she’s not playing games this year.

If none of this has been enough to convince you…

We’ll leave you with this last bargaining chip: if you show up soon, we promise we won’t complain this summer 🙂

All our best,

    Kelly, love the wood plank with the flowers and greenery. I feel ya – I know it’s much colder in Minnesota than Georgia, but these chilly tips are no fun!

    PS – The south is tired of this cold weather too! We’ve had one of the coldest winters in years and you would laugh at what we consider cold, but I’m so ready for spring. Your tablescape is gorgeous and I LOVE the centerpiece. Fingers crossed that warmer weather is on the way!

      Thank you, Laura! It’s my favorite piece in our kitchen 🙂 What a small world that your son is so close. If this was his first January here, it was definitely a cold one! Hopefully he stays around for the warmer weather and enjoys it a bit 🙂

    I’m so grateful that we don’t have to deal with those kinds of temperatures in SoCal. But on the bright side, your table does bring in the spring 🙂 Will be featuring this in a tablescape roundup.

    Love your table!! isn’t it hard to watch all of these southern bloggers talk about their gardens and even doing alfresco dinning when we northerners still have snow!! But I guess it pays off when fall comes. Happy Spring!

Last summer, Brett and I didn’t get out on the w Last summer, Brett and I didn’t get out on the water at all – not once did we take the boat out.

Given the fact that we live in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, I felt like the worst Minnesotan. How could we not enjoy the water when there’s three within five miles of our house?

This year? We've been able to get out on some body of water at least once per week - how cool is that?!

What’s been really great about these last few months is that we’ve seemed to have found a nice “balance” between go-go-go and taking time to enjoy whatever it may be.

While this season of relaxed work is probably not the norm, it's been a pleasant surprise that we'll be enjoying for as long as we can!

Enjoy the week, friends!

And then...

Yesterday, #ontheblog we did a mid-year check in o Yesterday, #ontheblog we did a mid-year check in on our renovation list and shared two new projects we're adding (of course!)

The second addition? Giving a little refresh to this laundry room by pushing back the washer, dryer and cabinets.

We finished it wayyyy back in 2017 but there was a small frustration: the washer and dryer cover the window.

Every few months we'd circle back to the space and see how we could make it work. It was one of those little issues that might not seem like a big deal to anyone else, but here's the thing - you deserve to LOVE your home.

After four and a half years of constant projects, I often find myself wondering why in the hell we are doing this and I keep coming back to this idea that a home is meant to be loved, to share a story, to work for you, to be a space that you can relax in and enjoy.

So while the washer and dryer covering a window might be insignificant to a visitor, for us, it's something we see every day. And, after three years of brainstorming, we finally found a solution that felt good.

I guess that's the bonus of being four years into a reno - the idea of knocking down a wall seems like an easy project nowadays 😂😂

Sometimes, it's not all rainbows and butterflies.. Sometimes, it's not all rainbows and butterflies... especially when it comes to neighbors.

New post #ontheblog today all about the lawsuit we've been in with our neighbor for the last year. And it started all because of our garage.

In short: three years ago the county required us to get a survey done on our property in order to build the garage. The results showed that the easement our neighbor was using to access her property was not in the right place - it was inside our property lines instead of outside.

Fast forward to July 2, 2019 when we were served lawsuit paperwork from said neighbor, claiming the rights to the easement location - and it's been a long, stressful process since then.

But, we received the good news last week from our lawyer - everything is finalized and we can finally put this whole mess behind us!

Cheers to starting the week off on a high note!

In other news, Brett scored big time and found a giant rug for our living room - it was half off and arrived last week. Now we're patiently waiting until we get the new floors down until we roll it out. Check the stories if you want to get a sneak peak!😁😁 Enjoy the day, my friends!

Brett showed up around dinner time and proceeded to spend the next hour in a water + cake fight with six kids under 10.

Yup, I'm married to an adult child. 😂😂 Kidding aside - I had one of those 'I love summer' moments, watching them all run around outside, laughing their heads off.

Hope you're enjoying the start to your week, friends! 🙌
So, here's the deal. The kitchen tile project was So, here's the deal. The kitchen tile project was not all sunshine and roses.

Two words: dried grout.

On the plus side, you can in fact clean dried grout from tile. On the negative, it's a complete pain in the ass... And doesn't get you back too 100%. #ontheblog today, I'm diving into all the details on how we cleaned the tile... And the (now funny?) story on how it even happened in the first place (hint: renovating with your husband on an empty stomach never has a positive outcome) 😂
The last four years have been a constant experimen The last four years have been a constant experiment of finding the balance between function and design.

We started this entryway with white built-ins and light walls. Damn it looked good in pictures but real life? With two black dogs and a lake... Well let's just say the functionality of the design choices were at an all time low.

So, we overhauled the space and darkened the walls and built-ins. While I was a little nervous to go so dark, I have to admit Brett's instincts were right one this one.

So, here's to continuing to find that balance of function and design - and I'd love hear, have you compromised anything because it just didn't fit with how your family lives in your home?!?
