We're still working outside this long weekend It seems like our first sunny weekend in ages. I'm also working on a camping post for tomorrow. Might sound odd but yes I'm posting about a camping guide because it's a super skill of mine. Do you have a super skill that most people wouldn't know about? https://somuchbetterwithage.com/2017/01/my-big-beautiful-kitchen-renovation-before-and-after/ #frenchthemethursday #swoonworthysaturday #frenchcountrystyle #frenchcountry #neutraldecor #frenchcountrydecor #Frenchstyle #countryfrench #frenchvintagehome #frenchvintagedecor #frenchdecor #frenchvintage #frenchvintagestyle #frenchcountrystyle #frenchcountry #shabbychic #modernfarmhouse #farmhousestyle #farmhousedecor #fixerupperstyle #rusticdecor #rusticstyle
I'm outside working today on projects which seems like starting at zero as the exterior has been so neglected but at least my kitchen is clean! I can't wait to show you what I'm doing to my concrete slab called my back patio.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mamas out there! The hardest but most rewarding job ever. I've had the best breakfast in bed today and so many handmade gifts.

Apparently April showers bring May showers. It won't stop raining this week but it didn't stop me from filling some beautiful plantar pots. Do you know my secret?? I don't fill the whole thing with soil, I add something else first. Click the link in my profile to head to my blog. I love these planters from @canadiantire. They are Canvas Luna planters and they are selling out fast. I had to go to 3 different stores to locate these 4. They look like concrete but are made of resin. I'm taking part in a gardening blog hop today so be sure to tap the photo to see what my co-hosts have made. Thanks @shaunaoberg for hosting this weekly event this month!! https://somuchbetterwithage.com/2017/05/best-tip-for-filling-large-outdoor-planters/ #outdoorextravaganza #frenchcountrystyle #frenchcountry #neutraldecor #frenchcountrydecor #Frenchstyle #countryfrench #frenchvintagehome #frenchvintagedecor #frenchdecor #frenchvintage #frenchvintagestyle #frenchcountrystyle #frenchcountry #shabbychic #modernfarmhouse #farmhousestyle #farmhousedecor #fixerupperstyle #rusticdecor #rusticstyle #containergardening #gardeningideas #gardeningclass #gardening101 #mycanvasstyle
