Flowers on Groundhog Day...

It already feels like spring here in Texas & I was inspired by the wonderful weather to create some floral arrangements for The Teal Door, so off to Hobby Lobby I went...
Picture
I loved arranging all of these beautiful flowers in vases from estate sales, Hobby Lobby & Ikea.

This is an antique bread pan that I picked up at an antique sale last weekend.

Picked up these mason jars 80% off at Hobby Lobby & hot glued some burlap ribbon on them to add a little extra color and texture.

What a great centerpiece! Love this pop of yellow!

Hope a few of these inspire you to try a few arrangements for your own home! You can also follow us on Facebook to get notifications of future blogs!

Happy planting! ~T

Behind the Teal Door...

1/23/2016

We purchased this home in 2012 when we knew our family would be expanding once again. We lived here for one year & truly loved it- especially the concrete flooring & Austin stone. We built a custom pool with rock waterfall that the kids enjoyed splashing in on hot Texas summer days. We even tore down half the kitchen wall to open it up into the living room. When we moved, it was into a home closer to town & half the size. We decided to leave our furnishings and let others enjoy all of the things we had once enjoyed about this home. The Teal Door hosts dozens of guests from around the country each year for vacations, gatherings & family fun trips. We love hearing stories & reading reviews of guests that found this place to be a special one to them as well.

I remember planting this front garden when I was very pregnant with our third child. It was a lot of work but such a great spot that greets guests.

Yellow! I ❤️ it! I rescued this table & transformed it from a dark wood into a bright white/blue finish. I spray painted some old metal letters yellow to finish off the room!
Picture
The inviting Austin stone fireplace is decorated with a custom painted "Teal Door" canvas. What a fun room to relax & have guests over!

The antique chest next to the bed has been in our family for years. It's from 1912. I love the mix of modern (yellow chair) & old antique pieces.

Unexpected Gem...

We had some pallet pieces left over from the mug holder project so I drew up a simple 'towel hook' design for my husband to craft up for me but when I organized my closet a few days later, I knew this piece would work even better has a necklace hook. The little ones had a lot of fun helping me hang all my necklaces! This was another simple project that makes me smile everytime I walk into my closet because I know it was crafted with love. Knobs are from Hobby Lobby.

Super Easy & Cute Moss Letter DIY

12/27/2015

This is a quick and easy DIY project that takes less than 30 minutes & adds wonderful texture & elegance to any space.
Materials:
-one bag of moss
-wooden letter
-rope
-glue gun & glue sticks
I purchased all of my supplies at Michael's Craft Store for around $12-15.

I found an old piece of cardboard my kids had colored on & put it down because the moss makes a pretty big mess.

I applied the glue directly to the moss and pressed it onto the wooden letter. I did the entire face of the letter first. I then applied thin strips of glue to the sides of the letter and pressed the thinner strips of moss around the edges about an inch at a time.

Cut some rope and hang it up! I hung it between two curtains where there's always that odd blank space & it really draws your eye to the entire wall now!

Happy crafting!
-Tara

This Fireplace gets a Facelift

12/26/2015

 When we purchased our home, it was very builder basic & screaming for some warmth. The entire first floor was all tile & everything was beige. We tackled many projects when we first moved in, one of them being a new face for the fireplace. I had plans of a mantel, but discovered this rusted arrow at Hobby Lobby instead that really compliments the white stacked stone. While December in Texas has been rather warm this year, we did enjoy a fire in November. This white stone from Floor & Decor is my go-to stone & fits well with many different styles & is affordable & easy to install. Hoping to be using the fireplace once again when the cold front pushes through tonight!
