Updated House Tour: Entryway and Dining Room

House Tour of 2014 by Two Purple Couches #housetour #hometour #homedecorating #interiordecorating

First I want to say a big, huge, enormous, bear-hug type of THANK YOU!!!!!! to everyone who participated in my Blogiversary survey & giveaway! I’m so stoked that you took the time to celebrate with me, and let me learn more about what you love about this blog, and what you’d love to see more of in Year 3!

As I was planning for my 2nd Blogiversary Bash, it dawned on me that my house tour photos are also two years old. And while that doesn’t sound all that old, considering the changes our home has gone through in those two years… well, it’s a pretty drastic difference. At least to me!

And I finally had the time to check a fun project off my list: diy fabric wrapped letters.

Simple Easter Tablescape

Easter Tablescape by Two Purple Couches

We’re hosting Easter for the first time this year. Which means: cleaning, decorating, menu-planning, and tablescape-creating. So far, I have one of those items checked off my list. Oh wait! One-and-a-half. I have my menu sort-of planned out. But, at least I have a lovely, simple Easter tablescape to share with you today!

And if you’re a last-minute planner (yes, that’s a thing) like me, you can probably pull off a similar setting with plenty of time leftover to get those hardboiled eggs dyed.
