Mohawk Rug Giveaway

I'm  excited to try Mohawk’s SmartStrand carpeting. A huge sample arrived last week, and I was amazed at how soft and fluffy it was – especially after hearing about the rhino and elephant traffic that this kind of carpet has been tested with. Yeah – elephants and a rhino.

You can win your own 6’ X 9'' SmartStrand bound carpet rug in style Simonton Beach. And since this is all about color, Mohawk has agreed to let you pick the color of your choice. There are more than 40 Simonton Beach colors to choose from! 








Click HERE to win a SmartStrand bound carpet for yourself! There are over 40 colors to chose from!

The contest will end on July 4th. Mohawk will also be contacting winners via email to redeem prize.


SmartStrand is extremely easy to clean. 
Say goodbye to carpet cleaners! You don’t have to use any harsh chemicals or carpet cleaners to remove stains from SmartStrand carpet. All you need is a dishrag, some warm water, and mild detergent, like dish soap. Even tough stains, like ketchup, mustard, red Kool-Aid, and even red wine will clean easily out of SmartStrand carpet. Almost everyone has a flooring horror story, but with SmartStrand there’s no need to worry. This carpet is rated #1 in consumer satisfaction. 
I have a super top secret project in the works that my SmartStand rug will be used for, so stay tuned. I hope to reveal it by the end of July!

{ The Country Living Fair }

Yes, it was a weeks ago.
But , I just found this post marked draft in my post list.
Snort. Too much going on.
I had to get these pictures of the fair to you.
Because, if you think you might be able to make it to one of Country Livings many fairs around the country. Do it!


The day began meeting up with Sarah Gray Miller. Did you know Sarah Gray is her first name? Now you do.

Then, the cute and friend Cari Cucksey gave a group of us our own personal tour around the fair.
She's totally friendly and down to earth. And her both was phenomenal! tons of inspiration there!


Now, will anyone mind if I take a nap while you look at the rest of the pictures? 
TG






























Oh, one more thing. I met up with other fellow home decor blogger.
This is Kelly, who you probably already know from Eclectically Vintage.


She was fun and cool, and gave me this hand stamped spoon keychain, which I LOVE!

{ I hate outdoor clean up & A $100 LOWES card giveaway }

Bleck. I hate clean up projects. But, I have to admit, the outcomes are always the best. There's nothin' like a clean house. Heck, even a clean room for that matter.

Summer is here, and that means cleaning up the mess of Winter and Spring outside.
My entire backyard is in need of a clean up.
So, with a little help from Lowe's &  Mr. Clean Outdoor Pro Spray, I started with the chairs around the firepit. Then, made my way over to the grill
Lowe’s has everything you need to get your outdoor space ready for another great season of backyard grilling and entertaining.

and prepped it for a little post-BBQ snack too...

You can win a pack of everything mentioned, along with a $100. gift card from LOWES.

I've been painting and making stuff like crazy lately.

Some of you already know that I have a spot at Serendipity in Doylestown, PA, which has been FABULOUS and I struggle to keep things stocked there. But I'm always adding something new and I try to keep you up to date on freshly stocked items at Serendipity on instagram. So, check that out if you're wondering what Serendipity is all about.

But recently, I've added another summertime location to my Painted Home list.

It's the Brooklyn Flea Philly. Have you heard? The world famous Brooklyn Flea is in Philly for the summer!
Crazy, right? I know.
