It’s been quite some time since I’ve shared a home tour, so today I’ve gathered up a few of my friends for a Summer Tour of Homes, farmhouse style!
It’s been a couple of years since I hosted the Summer Tour of Homes, so some spaces look similar, while others have been given a complete overhaul. Like our living room.
After years of putting it off over and over again, we finally took the time to rip out all the old (read: gross) carpet, remove our non-functional fire place, as well as just give everything a fresh farmhouse vibe.
We re-used the pieces we loved, updated a few that we liked, and bought a couple of new things we absolutely love.
Our sofa was a Pottery Barn outlet find from a few years ago, and our old coffee table got a facelift with a bit of paint. The sofa table was a DIY that’s insanely easy.
Speaking of paint, our ceiling fan got a fresh coat of the same white paint as the coffee table. The new (to us) buffet and the church pew was brought back to life with a little elbow grease and leftover paint.
That pew had seen better days. It needed a lot of TLC (I’ll share the whole process soon). Honestly the whole time we worked on it, I just kept thinking about all the hundreds of people who must have prayed there over the years. So bringing it back to life just felt right, ya know?
Want to see a bit around the rest of the house? Here’s a peek into our bedroom…
And into our kitchen….

Thank you SO much for including me in the summer tour. It was a lot of fun and I’ve already gained lots of inspiration from the others on the tour.

May 23, 2017 at 8:30 amYour home is very nice! I love the pops of turquoise blue. The jars on top of the cabinet make for a great decoration, but how do you reach them?? I would need a permanent stool in my kitchen!
