Ready for Spring

"For the winter is past and the rain is over. 
The flowers are springing up and the time of singing birds has come..." 
Song of Solomon 2:11-12

I know my family and friends in Maine and Virginia are ready for the snow to disappear.  Have faith, spring is right around the corner.  Now is a great time to plan your spring door decor!  To give my winter weary friends a little inspiration, I put together a few cute ideas for your front door!

We grow hydrangeas in our yard.  I think hydrangeas are heavenly!
You can pick up a bundle of tulips at your local craft store and whip up this happy wreath in no time!
This Southern Living radish wreath is one of my all time favorites.  
What about this cute idea? 
We have double doors off our front and back porches.  This is quite a lovely design from "Housepitality Designs" and would look wonderful at Still Woods.
Pinterest abounds with terrific ideas like this happy display!
Or this one...
"Whole family strong" created this adorable, whimsical wreath.  Now where is that extra hose I saw while cleaning out the garage?
Hope this inspired you to think about your spring door decor.  Wishing everyone warmer days ahead and blessings from Still Woods Farmhouse!
Let's Party!

  1. I love hydrangeas too! I was so happy that we were able to plant five hydrangea bushes (are they bushes or plants?) at our new home. We have never had the perfect spot before. I have no idea if they will bloom this first year, but I am excited nonetheless! These our great ideas for spring!! I feel the need to go make a wreath!!

    1. I find that hydrangeas bloom fairly easily the first year. I love to pick the blooms and place a few in a wide mouth vase. So pretty! My mother-in-law has some of the most beautiful hydrangea bushes and she does little to them. They are about four feet tall. Hope yours do well at your new home!

Give Me Life, Liberty and Homemade Ice Cream!

Are you looking for a fabulous ice cream recipe for a 4th of July celebration? Luckily, your search is over! I shared this ice cream recipe several years ago and it is a perfect time to share again. This is a traditional cooked custard recipe my dad has made for years.  It makes the most creamy, deliciousness that you will ever put in your mouth.  You can really taste the difference between a cooked ice cream and a non-cooked ice cream.  It doesn't take long to prepare this recipe and it is worth the little bit of effort you will put into it. In fact, I have all the ingredients sitting on the counter ready to make the custard.  I have to tell you that we often fight over who gets to lick the spoon and clean out the bowl! Let's look at the Starting Line-Up.  Just a few basic ingredients.   Please note that the ice cream salt in the picture is only for my ice cream freezer and not for the recipe!! If you are like me, I like the recipe all at once and...

A Trip Down Memory Lane

I had planned to share my new front door decor, but alas, like many residents of the MS Gulf Coast, all  loose outside objects have been secured as we await the arrival of Hurricane Isaac. Instead, I thought I would share with you a set of my favorite dinnerware.  I began collecting Memory Lane ironstone many years ago, but my love of the pattern began when I was just a little girl.  My Grandma Mercer had one dinner plate.  I imagine that she picked it up either in a box of laundry soap or as a reward for shopping at the IGA of Chattahoochee, Florida.  I came to love her one plate.  My grandmother would make sure that my food was served on that plate no matter what other dinnerware pattern was set on her table!  When she passed away, I was blessed to receive her dining room set which included a lovely buffet with glass knobs along with the matching table and chairs.  I also received my Memory Lane plate. During my search for more pattern pieces...

Mississippi Spice Muffins for Busy Mornings!

Our family has always felt that it was important to eat together as a family as often as possible.  During the school week, this meant breakfast and supper.  During the weekend, it meant all three meals.  Mealtime is such a wonderful time to talk to your children and share their experiences of the day.  It also provides you an additional time to pray together as a family.  Many teachable moments occur during our family mealtimes.  I should emphasize that our mealtimes are spent at the table, not in front of the television.  Breakfast can be very hectic, so when my boys were little, I came up with a simple method to reduce any fussing about what we were going to eat.  They always knew that Monday was Muffin Monday , Tuesday was Toast Tuesday (cinnamon toast, cheese toast, peanut butter toast), Wednesday was Waffle Wednesday , Thursday was Thirsty Thursday (nutrient packet fruit smoothies) and Friday was Free Friday (anything goes!). Weeke...
