Style Scouting: Vol. 138
Thanks for stopping by for this week’s Style Scouting. My Sunday post where I share the random stuff that captured my attention or inspired me that I found online.
Hello – Happy Sunday. I hope you are doing well and enjoying the weekend.
I didn’t post a new post this week for two reasons:
One: We installed cable wiring into the openings along the existing wood railing on the upper deck on the lake side of the house.
The railing always worried me that a child or pet could fall through, so we added the cable wiring. It is hard to see, but the project is done.
I decided not to post about it as there are so many great how-to videos on the process that I didn’t feel I could make one any better. Plus, the job was harder than all the videos showed. Even Ed had a hard time with the tools needed. If you would like to know more, I can share the YouTube videos I used to learn how to install the cable.
Two: The other project I am working on is taking longer than expected. Do you remember the two wood panels that I showed you a month or so ago? I can’t get the color right on them, so I am experimenting with different stain and paint combinations. Now I am waiting for the stain to dry. I think I am close – so stay tuned.
Now onto the inspiring links I found this week.
Decorating
Anything but a traditional farmhouse.
This serene waterfront home.
Oh my! I love the open door feature on the back of this home.
DIY
How pretty and colorful is this spring wreath? Looks easy to make.
I love seeing smart and clever home improvement DIY’s ideas like this!
When you need a little cozy in a kitchen.
Food
Instead of ground beef, this recipe uses chicken.
If you like coffee and chocolate… YUM!
Freezer breakfast sandwiches for the morning rush.
Fashion & Beauty
For hot southern days. I just ordered this summer dress.
If you have ever met me in person, you know I am all about this. I even wrote about how it got me into my first real job after college.
Fun & Interesting
Now THIS is quite a skill. I tried it myself and failed.
This research fascinates me.
This past Friday marked 111 years since the sinking of the Titanic. Did you know these 13 facts? The cutting-edge research that brings us closer to the vessel that continues to capture worldwide fascination — even over a century later.
Something to Think About
The list that will encourage you to own less.
I enjoy doing this in the morning. How about you?
We are more alike than we think. You will love this if you love animals and kind human beings.
