Spring Home Tour | Bunnies, Peter Rabbit Tablescape & Kitchen Reveal
Join Us for the 2026 Spring Home Tour
Welcome to my home for the Spring Home Tour! Along with 18 other talented bloggers, I’m sharing my home all dressed up and ready for spring!
Spring is the time when I feel a sense of renewal. My seeds are sprouting on my seed station, and I can see my spring bulbs starting to push through the ground. I want my home to feel bright and airy and remind me that gardening season is just around the corner.
The real highlight of this tour for me is revealing an exciting update to my kitchen. I’ve been looking forward to sharing it!

Spring Living Room Refresh: Florals, Bunnies & A New Sisal Rug
Light & Airy Drapes
The living space in our great room was instantly refreshed with white, airy floral drapery panels. I love the green tones in the panels, so I added green floral and green gingham pillow covers to the sofa to tie the look together.

The New Sisal Rug
This space needed a new rug to complete the updated look, and I couldn’t be happier with the sisal rug I found. It was a Walmart find, and the price simply can’t be beat.
The neutral, natural materials of the rug give the room an airy, Nancy Meyer look.

Bunnies Everywhere
Bunnies have become the cornerstone of my Easter and spring decor, and this year I’m leaning into it with full enthusiasm. You’ll find all kinds of bunnies (ceramic, wood, and cement) tucked into corners and on shelves throughout the great room.









A Returning Favorite: The Garden Mantelscape
A few years ago I created a whimsical mantelscape with a garden theme, and it was so much fun that I’m bringing it back again this spring.

A Facebook Marketplace Find
The side table I found on Facebook Marketplace has completely stolen my heart. I had originally planned to paint it, but now that it’s in the room, I’ve fallen in love with the richness of the wood grain. It’s staying exactly as it is!

Dining Room Spring Decor & A Whimsical Peter Rabbit Tablescape
The Peter Rabbit Theme
Since bunnies have become the theme of my spring and Easter decor, it only made sense to carry that into a Peter Rabbit-inspired table setting. Using my collection of Peter Rabbit books as part of the table styling brought the theme beautifully to life.

Greenery, Faux Cabbages & A Statement Centerpiece
In addition to the books, I used a generous amount of greenery, faux cabbages, and a faux tree as the centerpiece. Together, they give the table a lush, garden-fresh feel.

Candles & Flowers
Brass candleholders—some with flameless candles and others with candleholder vases filled with white ranunculus, adding both a warm glow and a touch of whimsy to the table. The candleholder vases are a recent purchase from my last trip to Kansas City and are a wonderful way to incorporate fresh flowers without taking up too much table space.

Spring Greens for Your Shelves




Kitchen Makeover Reveal: From Desk Space to a Functional Coffee and Baking Station
The Backstory
Long before we completed our full kitchen renovation, “Handy” built me a desk area in a spot that had previously been an awkward, underutilized space. Once we remodeled the kitchen and opened it up to that area, the desk no longer served its original purpose. Because it sat below counter height, it had become a catch-all surface. I kept my KitchenAid mixer there, but I had to move it every time I wanted to use it.

The Solution: Raising It to Counter Height
I had the idea that we could raise the area to counter height by adding drawers on top of the existing cabinets. The fact that “Handy” was immediately on board told me two things: it would be a relatively straightforward fix, and he genuinely liked the idea.


More Counter Space, More Storage
In addition to gaining three new drawers, we filled in the old desk leg space with an additional cabinet. That means I not only gained a more functional counter surface, I also gained much-needed storage. Now that everything sits at the proper kitchen counter height, the area has become a dedicated coffee and baking station.

The Open Shelves
The open shelves above have been a dream of mine for some time. They give me a place to style and restyle to my heart’s content, and my spring decor up there makes me genuinely happy every time I walk into the kitchen.
