Notes From the Nest

by | From the Nest

Wow, what a week!  To be honest, I’m recovering a bit from whiplash.  Haha!  It was a full and very fun week overall!  However, I wouldn’t mind if this coming week slowed down just a tad bit!

I hope you enjoy the Notes From Our Nest this week!

Around Our Nest:

  • Payton competed with hundreds of students from around the state of Florida in the FACCS (Florida Association of Christian Colleges and Schools) State Fine Arts competition.  She is so diligent and dedicated with her practicing and we love her passion for her music. We are so excited for her for placing 1st in piano and 1st in violin.  Her piano piece this year was Schubert’s Impromptu No. 4.  On violin, she performed a Concerto by Accolay.  Congrats, Payton!
  • Major G. Winchester is the official name for our puppy and it’s hard to imagine our family without him now!  We are still working on potty training but some improvement was made this week.  Mostly, it’s just us getting organized with a consistent schedule!  Ahhh!
  • Robb and I enjoyed a quick getaway to Plant City, Florida to attend the Strawberry Festival!  It was SO fun to spend time together and with good friends.  Of course, we enjoyed one…or two…or more yummy strawberry desserts.  I mean, you’ve got to sample as many as you can, right?!
  • I added a little bit of Easter decor to my spring decorations this week and can’t wait to add more this coming week.  It’s hard to believe Easter is this month!!!

Around the ‘Gram This Week:

  • It was another busy week on Instagram and I have really enjoyed sharing some recent projects with you!
  • First of all, I get so many questions about florals and greenery.  So, I put together a reel and caption that you can use to create your own faux floral arrangements!  Check it out HERE and don’t forget to read the caption so you can see how many stems you need for each styling.  Plus, all of the stems are linked HERE on my storefront for your convenience.
  • We’ve been doing a lot of work in our game room over the past year.  Finally, I think we are getting close to done.  I still want to add some furniture.  However, you’ve got to see THESE fun games that go right on the wall.  I am obsessed with the Felt Right product!  You can use the coupon code: ROBYN15 and THIS LINK if you want to shop for your own home!
  • To answer more game room questions and share the overall look, I gave a quick tour over on THIS post!  We love this space and it is truly a blessing to entertain our kids and their friends here!
  • Friday Favorites was all about creating fun and cozy spaces in your home.  It’s a little bit of a unique Friday Favorites.  However, I hope it inspires you that these “fun” rooms in your home can also be beautiful!

Around the Blog This Week:

  • The blog was definitely hopping this week!  I launched a short blog series to share the fun projects we’ve been doing in our game room.
  • Over on THIS post, I share ideas and tips to organize a playroom.  Whether you have a designated room or a corner of the living room, this post is super thorough and I think it can be helpful.  As a mom and teacher, I’ve had a ton of experience at organizing things for kids!
  • Our DIY wall decor is one of my favorite things about our game room!  Over on THIS post, you can find over 33 ideas for simple DIY wall decor for a game room or playroom space!  You can also use these ideas in kids’ rooms!
  • Friday Favorites was all about creating fun and cozy spaces in your home.  It’s a little bit of a unique Friday Favorites.  However I hope it inspires you that these “fun” rooms in your home can also be beautiful!

Around the Storefront This Week:

I am definitely keeping my deliver driver busy lately with all of the fun orders for Winchester.  Haha!  However, there have been some GREAT deals on things for our home too!  As usual, florals and greenery are some of my favorites as well as yours!
