Today is a fun day! It’s spring home tour day and I’m joining a lot of gals this week sharing our spring home tours, so I hope you enjoy them all. A big thanks for Marty from A Stroll Thru Life for hosting this tour every year. She’s the best! These tours give us all a push to get our homes decorated for spring and share them with all of you, so I hope you enjoy.
If you’re new to my blog, I’ve been blogging for 15 years, sharing home decorating, DIY projects, Fashion over 50, travel and more, so if I’d love for you to click the link in my sidebar and join my email list if you haven’t already. Welcome!
If you’re stopping by from my friend, Yvonne at Stonegable, welcome! Yvonne has a gorgeous home and I know you enjoyed it. I love the way she decorates!
As you can see I love color and I kept it simple this year with some fresh tulips and other fresh flowers added to my spaces. When these die back, I’ll add in my faux flowers to take their place.
I dearly love tulips and when I find them, I pick them up. These orange ones are the perfect accent with my living room pillows. Those cane glass vases you see are from Michaels and I’ve link them below if you like them. This brass coffee table is one of my best thrifty finds ever. It came from a thriftstore a few years ago for $20 and I snatched it up fast. I dearly love thrifty finds and this one is made by LaBarge and worth a lot. It’s in perfect condition and the perfect petite size for my living room.
You can find a few things from my home in the links below, if interested (affiliate links):
Looking back to the front door. That gallery art on the wall is all thrifty finds over the years too.
Can’t get enough of the tulips.
Our home is pretty open concept and you can see most of the rooms from the front door on the main level.
A closer look at the art.
Mark did that box molding on the stair wall over a year ago and I still love it so much. Sure adds a lot of architectural interest to our home.
One more look at the tulips.
Here’s another good shot of the box molding on the stair wall. It’s such a nice backdrop for my foyer table, which I change with the seasons.
I get my bunnies and birds out for spring and kept this table pretty simple too.
Pink tulips are always appropriate for spring. These were beginning to lose their petals so I let them lay.
My decoupage eggs that I did a couple years ago are nestled in a dough bowl. They are so easy to make.
And they look pretty sitting on green reindeer moss. I love that vibrant shade of green.
A couple of boxwood topiaries that I found at Homegoods years ago is added to the mix.
And that’s my simple foyer table this year.
Let’s go into the dining room. I pull out my green bunny dishes in honor of spring and Easter.
I found these cute cloth bunny napkins in my mom’s things when we were cleaning out the house, so I kept them to use for Easter. Aren’t they cute on my green table?
Simple grocery store flowers in a blue and white vase is all I did for the centerpiece.
And part of my blue and white collection on the sideboard keeps it simple as well.
Love those pink flowers for spring!
I went back and added a cute gold bunny to the centerpiece.
And these cute Bordallo bunny trays have been with me a long time, in fact the whole collection has been with me for over 25 years.
I’ve set a lot of tables with those dishes.
My cute bamboo bar cart got a few things added for spring too. I’m having fun decorating this little thing.
More Bordallo bunny dishes look great on the navy bar cart.
Cute cute bunnies! I’ll alway have a special place for bunnies.
And that’s a look at our home for spring this year. I did do a few things on the mantel and I’ll share that later.
And I couldn’t resist pulling out this Peter’s Pottery bunny to sit in the kitchen. I still love this piece and bought it while I was in Birmingham.
Next on the tour is This is Our Bliss, so you will want to go there next and see her home all decked out for spring.
Don’t miss all the ladies below who are all sharing their spring homes. It’s always fun to peek around and see what other bloggers are up to! You will get so much inspiration if you visit them all.

Rhoda, everything looks lovely…so fresh and bright for Spring! (My hydrangeas are all budded out, and now we are going down to 19 Saturday…arghhh). I enjoyed duplicating your decoupage blue&white eggs so much, I made another dozen for my sister! Kisses for Daisy💕
I hear you! Everything here is budding out and I can’t believe it’s going to dip that cold this weekend. That’s when things get zapped. So glad you made the decoupage eggs, they are so easy.
You and Mark are an incredible team. Together you have made a stunningly beautiful home. Love it all!
Absolutely beautiful! I sit up here in cold and very snowy Minnesota and can only dream of spring but I do have my Easter decor out. Bunnies, lambs and eggs along with greenery. When In face spring makes an appearance I’ll bring out the tulips and other flowery decor.
So many lovely spring vignettes. I adore the blue and white eggs on the moss. Such a joy to be on tour with you!
Your living room is so pretty and I love your color combo of pillows. Such a pretty tablesetting in the dining room too. I love those bunny dishes, your collection is amazing. I have a few of the salad plates, so I need to get them out too. You and Mark have turned this house into such an amazing home with all of his handy DIY and your beautiful decor. Thanks so much for joining the tour again this season, I always enjoy seeing your decor.
I love all your bunny accents and accessories. So cute and pretty! Thanks for the lovely tour Rhoda.
I always love the way you use blue and green and the orange tulips are gorgeous in the living room with those colors!! And I’ve loved that green Bordallo bunny dishware for years…looks so cute on your table. I’m so thrilled to be a part of this tour with you!
Your color combinations are stunning. And I’m with you, I can’t get enough of those tulips. I’ve never actually seen that shade in our stores or anything close to an orange. And those dishes in the dining room – gaaah, so fun! Everything looks perfectly spring and so joyful. Enjoyed hopping with you this week. Thanks for all the inspo.
Your home looks lovely, Rhoda… as always. Those tulips are perfect for spring, and I LOVE the caned vases! May have to do a DIY for a couple of my own! 😉 So fun to be touring with you! Hope you’ll stop by tomorrow at My Wee Abode!
Beautiful home! WHERE did you aquire the brass and white linen top
light on your entrance hall table?
Thank You,
Janet F. HEBBARD
HI, Janet, the table lamp on my foyer table is from Couture lamps. It’s a designer brand and they have beautiful lamps.
So pretty! I love all the bright colors, your home is so welcoming and warm. I hope your spring is off to a great start!
Rhoda I always love touring your gorgeous home! So many rich and elegant colours – you do color so incredibly! I love the wall box molding on the staircase, so perfect in your home, I’m a wall panelling addict, ha! Your spring touches are just beautiful and of course you know I’m swooning over your blue and white. Happy Spring! xo
Rhoda, I love your home full of color! It’s so refreshing and inviting. It was a joy to see.
I’m enjoying your beautiful spring tour Rhonda! Your blue and white decor always looks so fresh, and those tulips are simply gorgeous!
I’m a huge tulip fan as well, so I enjoyed seeing them on your tour. So many beautiful vignettes with bright and cheerful spring colors! Thanks for taking us through your lovely home. Happy almost-spring!
