Let's talk about dining rooms!

Hey Friends!  Lets talk about dining rooms today.  These spaces are often neglected, I know mine has been since we moved in.  For my family this is the room we only spend time in over the dinner hour.  We take our food to the table, we eat, and we get up.  So when I came across this Pin on Pinterest it immediately had me inspired to decorate this space!  This article was originally written by Jordan from Picklee.com.  (please visit her blog, her style and ideas are amazing)   This is an older Pin but the styles she shows are classic and timeless. 
I love to decorate and re-decorate my home! I love to make beautiful spaces for my family to live in. I also have a passion for crafting and creating new things. 
I do this blog in hopes to inspire you to make something beautiful for your Home and Family.

After flipping through these I hope you are as inspired as I was to make any of your neglected spaces pretty.

 Here are just a few of my favorites from the list:
This space is light and bright!  I love the simple table scape and the amazing beaded chandelier.

This eat-in kitchen/dining area is B-E-A-utiful!  I absolutely love the table and the tile on the floor.  It's just an added bonus that it opens to an outdoor space, which I'm sure, is just as beautiful!

There are no words to describe my love for this dining space.  It is incredibly feminine, soft and luxurious.  The chandeliers make this space perfect!

This dining space is very open and airy.  It's clean and minimal.  The farm table brings that rustic country look and there is enough room to seat everyone.  The more the merrier!

AHH... this table it fantastic!  I love the rustic look and the color is right up my alley!  I love that the chandelier does not compete with anything else in the room.  Everything is beautiful on its own and nothing is over-done.  

Pure elegance!  This farm table is perfect with the upholstered chairs.  It looks so warm and inviting.  The orange tulips add the perfect pop of color too!

Jordan from Picklee.com added this one and so I had to also.  It's not a dining room but you could eat here!  I love how soft and bright this looks.  The pillows are mismatched but the colors go beautifully together.  And the coffee table made from old doors gives it a really rustic, country look.

Please spend some time checking out everything on her site.  Trust me you will love it!

Thanks for stopping by!
I hope you come by often!

Why my blog failed, and how I'm fixing it!

Several years ago when I started my blog I had no idea what I was doing or where I wanted it to go!  Now... three years (and two more kids) later I am finally on the right track!  I have discovered that I did this whole blog/business thing backward.  I jumped in on writing a blog without really having much content to write about and frankly I was boring myself with my posts!  I stopped checking in on it because it became a burden, and with no real followers, I felt it drift away. Having a blog has always been a goal of mine and I often let my mind wander and daydream about what my hopes and dreams would be for it yet I have no idea what I'm doing!  But, I knew I needed a better plan than the one I currently had!  So I decided to sit doing are really analyze what my goals are and how to get this up and running without having a repeat experience.   And what I did without even knowing is--- I started things over.  Like from scratch started over!  I sat down and really reflected.

A Start to January's Embroidery Kit

             I'm finally getting started on my monthly embroidery kits and since I'm totally OCD about things I started with January!  I wanted to be farther along on these by now but having three kids, a husband and trying to keep my business things in order hasn't left much time to sit and stitch.  But I wanted to share how the process is going.  Stay tuned for the rest of the months!  I'm so excited to share a few of these months because they are soooooo flippin' CUTE! Ready for stitching! A peek at what the back looks like. A quick bath gets the water-soluble ink off. Backing fabric added and trimmed and snipped in 1/2 in sections. I hot glue the fabric to the inside of the hoop to secure it in place. AND DONE!!  I love the way this snowflake looks against the dark fabric.  You will be able to find these DIY Embroidery kits in my Etsy shop very soon.  Visit www.etsy.com/shop/emmajanesporch

How to make a pillow for less than $3 ~Plus a Giveaway~

I've been working so hard in my sewing room coming up with lots of creative ideas and I'm so excited about this one.  Why?  Because it's super economical and who doesn't love that!   Also, I am holding my first giveaway! Click here to Enter the giveaway for a $20 gift card So, lets get started!  Today I made this adorable green striped pillow for less than $3!  And I'm going to show you how I did it, but first, let me tell you how I made this work. Late last summer I was wandering around Pier 1 Imports (one of my FAVS) and I noticed a few striped napkins in the clearance section.  I thought they were really cute but they didn't match my dining room.  So what happened next, was that struggle we all do in our heads.  You know you don't need it, but something inside tells you "just get it".  Of course that little voice won out, especially when I saw they were only $0.98 each!   Yes 98 cents! So I put 6 in my basket, bro
