A fresh look on the patio with HomeGoods & Giveaway

Uncategorized

A little sprinkle of blush on the patio, a charming boho hammock 
and a simple romantic new look is what todays post is all about.
And something for you.

I might be obsessed with that soft subtle barely there blush color.
And I might use it anywhere…and everywhere.
And today I am sharing a bit about a fresh look on the patio-
and a fresh look on the hammock with HomeGoods as part of their #Gofinding challenge to go see what you find. And of course, I found A LOT of great stuff.
Because- HomeGoods. 
🙂
There is something fun at the end of the post for you to have 
a chance to do some finding of your own too!
I am excited to join my fellow HomeGoods bloggers today- and be sure to click over and see what they are up to too. 
Here is what I refreshed with my finds:
The Hammock
Last year a few unexpected rain showers were not kind to our hammock
and so… this year, we replaced it with a new one.
This one is so charming and absolutely simply sweet.
With a woven all over design and simple crocheted details
this one came home with me right away.
(did I mention it was under $40? Indeed.)
I stacked a few blush pillows and cozy throw on it to create a simple charming spot for
a quiet getaway.

The Lion Patio

The lion patio area is a bit of English garden goodness.
With that wall of ivy and blush roses mingling here and there
it is a favorite spot to sit and look out over the backyard.
The dark gray chairs are weathering to perfection 
and when I bumped into these oversized blush pillows- I knew they were perfect for them.
I love the softness the blush adds over here with all the dark and bold.
So pretty.

I also picked up this charming little faux bois vase for the ‘coffee table’
it is technically Not a coffee table and is actually a tree stump but you know… I saw it a little differently.

With gorgeous ‘wood’ texture- and knot holes- this vase spoke to me the minute I found it.
Absolutely love that it looks and feels like a real hollowed out piece of wood.
For a bit of ambiance- I picked up several sets of these charming candle holders.
I love to use small candles all around when entertaining. 
Tucked into the pea gravel to light a path or simply gathered- they bring so much ambiance.

You might also notice that little glass bottle on the table- I found a 3 pack of these milk jugs 
and instantly saw vases. (of course!) 
I have one in my bathroom for flowers
one out here on the patio for water
and another that I am going to mix some golden milk up in and put in the fridge.
The best thing is that they were under $6 for all 3.
Insanity.
And even better?
How about that I am giving away a $100 HomeGoods gift card today?
So fun right?
And even better than that?
My fellow HomeGoods bloggers are each giving away a $100 gift card today too.

    I first discovered HomeGoods almost 20 Years ago in Hilton head South Carolina. Ever since that day I have hoped and hoped and hoped and hoped for a HomeGoods to come to our town. Imagine my joy when HomeGoods opened a store in our area this year!!! ����

    Oops! Noticed that my comments showed up twice ��. I am a tech disaster waiting to happen and apparently it did. Hopefully this apology will get through properly.

    I already follow you on Instagram but just signed up for your blog also. I saw that faux bois vase last night and ran to Home Goods this morning and bought one. The one I bought is shorter and i think is actually meant for kitchen utensils but I'll go to another Home Goods later and try to find a taller one.

    I hope I can do something like this to my back porch this year. I'm full of ideas, but somehow never get things done. I love Home Goods, I do have to limit my trips there, or I'd buy the store out! I already follow the blog, but I added your Instagram to my feed.

    We just added a hammock to our our yard. It came with a pillow and blanket that are hideous! I will have to make a set. I shared on Pinterest because all other social media really isn't my cup of tea.

    I sure would love to win the gift cert. I stay a "little short" what with all these grand and great grand kids. My home needs a lot of finding and freshening. And I do love your style, so warm and pleasing to the eyes.

    Just followed you in IG – can't believe I haven't done it sooner. I enjoy all your blog posts and was just in Home Goods yesterday. I was just thinking I need a hammock now that our trees can support one – and I absolutely love yours – would you mind sharing where you got it? Also you gave me a great idea for the tree stump in our front yard – usually i just use it for Halloween decorating.
