| Terry and I took a ride a few weekends ago to Michigan. I found this old chippy porch post in one of my fave little shops. Was not sure what I would do with it but knew it had to come home with me. |
 |
Then I remembered I had this chippy bird cage at my daughters. I snatched it back from her and filled it with some of my favorite spring items. |
 |
Terry attached the metal bird cage to this porch post and I now have a cute garden post next to my spring swing. |

I think it looks cute with my porch swing and old french window. We are finally having some nice weather here in the midwest. Sunshine and warmer temps. We cannot get too excited yet for Spring because we can still get cold and snow until May 1st. I did see 5 Robins out front the other day. That is how we know Spring is on the way here in the midwest. When Robins come back we know Spring is not far.  xoxo Kris |

Love it! You have such a magic touch. We've had sleet and cold weather this week. Sun came out yesterday and it's beginning to melt away. Suppose to be in the 70s next week. That's Oklahoma for ya! Mia loved the sleet and cold weather. She would have lived outdoor if I would have let her. She's so much fun. Starts her Training next week. Should be interesting. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful Kris. I haven't seen Robin's inNJ
ReplyDeleteThat's how we know spring is coming too.
Maybe NJ will be behind IL. How weid would that be
Enjoy your Sunday evening!
How pretty! That turned out great!
ReplyDeleteHow pretty this springy bird cage looks on the white pole next to your swing! Very creative and feminine.
ReplyDeleteKris - That looks totally adorable! That corner looks like a little inside garden now, but it will never be troubled by any adverse weather. I just love it all!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful Kris. You have done so much. Would love to see a video tour of your whole home!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
DeleteMaybe soon I will do a video tour of our new place. Very small so it would not take much lol. Have a great new week. xoxo Kris
Good morning Kris!!!!!!!! Nice touch! And look, you had the perfect item to sit right on top. Looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! It looks so springy (is that a word? ha!) with the porch swing. You could have your own shop and help other gals decorate with chippy things. It is warming up here some but who know what March and even April will bring. I've just about had it with cold, wet and windy. xoxo
ReplyDeleteVery cute next to your porch swing. It feels like spring here with so many blooms and birds. Enjoy your nice weather for now. xoxo
ReplyDeleteIt's the perfect companion to your swing! You have definitely brought the outdoors in with both pieces! Enjoy the nice weather while it lasts!
ReplyDeleteperfect marriage of chippy goodness. I love any and all chippy wood goodies. Happy Week, Kris! xoxo
ReplyDeleteIt is perfect Kris, a little garden setting inside, I love it.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get all your fun hats?
My husband just came home from work and said the same thing, it feels like spring outside, but we know better then to get too excited. Ha Ha! 3 degrees for our low for Tuesday night!
That rally makes that swing area look complete, Kris. It looks like you've brought the outdoors in, a great look in your condo.
ReplyDeleteKicking February to the curb, no more winter! I've seen Robin's all over - a really good sign- and even a bluebird last week. I've got stuff coming up in my little yard that's been hidden with all those boxwoods we took pit. I hope they all bloom! Happy Monday, almost March.
I was just going to say, but Rita beat me to it, that you've found a wonderful way to bring the outdoors in and I'm loving the Spring vibes!
ReplyDeleteLove your chippy birdie house..So cute!! Glad yall, too, are getting some much better weather. Its still very cold here at night and early am..but warming up during the day a good bit. It really gives a new lift on life with the sunshine and warmth..if we do not turn on the news. :0( ... Take care and enjoy the warm weather and your beautiful home. I can't wait to see your video one of these days. Enjoy the rest of the week. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so cute! The post and birdcage are a perfect match! Let's hope that spring is right around the corner! Snow until May? Brrrr! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLove it, Kris! After a cold, rainy week, we are finally warming up. I am so ready for Spring! Got my spring garden started! Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cecilia
You and Terry created such a gorgeous birdcage on the post. I love the way you decorated the pretty swing too. It looks like spring is on the way in your home. I hope you have a nice week Kris.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute and fun vignette. Love it.........and so glad you are having signs of Spring already, I am sure that is encouraging. We are having signs of Summer already. lol, but I am not thrilled about that!! lol Course, think next week we are suppose to go back in the 70's, so hoping that is true, cause the weather changes daily. lol
ReplyDeleteEnjoy that pretty birdhouse you've added. It looks great.
Blessings,
Nellie
I love your post and birdcage. I have tried to snatch back things from my daughters, but apparently they inherited "the look" from me. Enjoy your warm weather. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteKris, I love the new post and with the bird cage on top, filled with pretty flowers, you have created another wonderful corner in your beautiful home..Happy Tuesday..xxoJudy
ReplyDeleteThat looks great with your swing, Kris! Today is finally warmer, as was yesterday and probably the rest of the week here. Then, who knows?
ReplyDeleteBrenda
I love your new chippy post with birdhouse....so cute! I like that you have created a "porch" inside your condo to bring the outside in.

I love it Kris! I got tickled at your "Snatching it back from your daughter's house". My late Motherinlove would say, "Now, I am not going to give you this. I am just letting you keep it a while so when I want it back I am coming for it". LOL! You sure have a gift and talent Kris with your decorating. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteKris, I am so sorry I am late in reading. The birdcage and porch post completes the area with the swing. I am glad you were able to snatch back the chippy birdcage to make a beautiful vignette!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! You truly do have the magic touch. Have a great weekend! xoxox
ReplyDeleteKris, I love the post and birdcage combo. It really does make the cutest vignette beside your porch swing! :D Your place is looking so pretty for spring!

Perfect for your new found treasure!!! Love the birdcage and all that you have adorned it with!
ReplyDeleteAdorable. Enjoy every spring like moment. I love that you surround yourself with it indoors.
ReplyDeleteKris,
