(My Sorta) Spring Parade of Homes Home Tour

It’s Friday, and the sun has been shining all week and it’s finally starting to feel like Spring, so it’s only right to end the week with a Spring Home Tour!   13 blogs in total have shared their homes this week, and today is the last day!  Please see the entire list of links at the end of this post.
I went a little photo happy, so be prepared.  Let’s start outside.  With the warm week we’ve had I finally was able to get some plants (just potted for now) and spruce up the porch a bit.
We live in a charming Cape Cod Style home.  The colors are NOT my choices with exception to the doors, but one day it will get a Cassie overhaul.  What I do love is the wrap-around porch and the gorgeous views we have.
The front entry greets you with a cheerful florence painted bench, and a little piece of furniture I am currently using as a potting bench.
The window frame was found as is in the perfect color, and note the adorable Sweet Clover pillow that was a gift from a friend when we opened Sweet Clover.
We also have outdoor dining on our porch- a found old antique library table and some chippy chairs I painted.  The tablecloth was a flea market find, and I recently added the dream catcher as well, which was a thrift shop find.
And once Spring hits, the hula hoop becomes a porch fixture, so I am keeping it real here.  Emmy has got to have easy access to the hula hoop!
Inside in the entry, I added a hydrangea stem…. the only fake flower I own.  (Click here for details on the sheep wall).
On the wall facing the sheep wall in the entry, I have a big chalkboard wall, where the kids hang their backpacks.  I always illustrate it for the season.
And heading down the hall off the entry there is a constant splash of color in the kids art gallery wall.  This is one of my favorite areas of my home!
Heading to the left of the entry is the living room.  I just brought a little Spring to the mantle.
Originally the mantle was decorated with Spring flowers, but one they died, I changed it a bit…
I added a live jade plant as well as these brass bunnies my amazing friend and business partner, Sarah, gave me.  I am not much of a bunny and chick Easter kind of girl, but these guys are brass, so I am making the exception.
I also added the Antiques sign to the hearth.  It’s a lucky auction find!  And my industrial pipe built ins are still hanging strong with all of their plants…. so far I’ve had only one casualty.  (This is huge for me, people!)
To the right of the entry is the dining room.  For the season, I’ve brought in a lot more aqua in the glassware and accents.
I love that the colors play off of the gallery wall.
My sideboard remains one of my favorite pieces, and I have it decorated with natural elements, aqua, and hints of gold for the season. (By the way, you can find me at Tatertots and Jello today sharing how I made the hanging insulator planters).
My secretary/bar even got a little update with some fabulous new hardware in the color of the season for me…. aqua!
Check out these amazing natural stone knobs from The Hob Knobery!  They work perfectly with the color of my front door as you can see, and with everything else!
The dining room also opens to the kitchen, which is almost done its makeover… You can read about its latest progress here.
My master bedroom has been getting a little Spring refresh as well!  I got new bedding which you can read about here, and then found this amazing ginormous abstract painting at the thrift shop which was perfect!  YES, I know the scale is a bit large, but I love it!!!  I purchased two others as well and will share them soon!

Emmy’s room is in perpetual Spring/Summer mode with its bright colors!

And just because we don’t want to leave anyone out, and if you are new here today, this is your first time seeing my home, here is Sawyer’s room...

And the guest room….

Jake and I hope you have enjoyed this tour and that you come back and see us!

Please be sure to visit all of the amazing home tours that were shared this week!

    Now that I’ve had a real up close and personal visit, I lot your home even more! Great idea to use the sign on your hearth (although I secretly want it for myself)! Love the new art in the bedroom too.

    Nobody does eclectic like you! Your bedroom with the white bedding is my favorite, everything just pops against it and looks so fresh, the gold side table adds a bit of glam, and the oversized abstract, perfection!!

    I love your style Cassie! So many amazing unique collected pieces… Your dining room is amazing – I wish I had a separate dining room so I could do a dark color and give it a beautiful moody feeling… the gallery wall in there is gorgeous!! I need to spend some more time stalking your kitchen project now… we need to update ours soon and I love what you have done… I think we have the exact same tiles in our kitchen (and hallway, bathrooms etc…). Thanks for the beautiful tour!!
