Style Scouting: Vol. 256
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.
Over the weekend, Ed and I headed up to Virginia to not only see our daughter Mandy and son-in-law Matt, but also to attend a home decorating event. I will be sharing what Mandy and I did with you later this week.
For the rest of the weekend, Mandy and I painted their primary bedroom while Ed and Matt hung decorative molding in their dining room.
If you haven’t seen the posts I shared about the other updates we have helped them with you can see them in these two posts: Painting Marathon (open in same tab) & Window Treatment in the Living Room. (open in same tab)

Something to Think About
Be kind, even when others aren’t! (open in same tab)
“In a world that moves a little too fast, it’s the gentle things that remind us to slow down. A stack of books waiting to be read, a sweater that feels like a warm hug, the soft glow of a candle, a blanket to wrap up in, and a cup of coffee (or tea) cradled in your hands — these are the quiet comforts that whisper, “You’re home. Rest awhile.” – Kelly Rowe
