Glittered vintage posters - Tons of free printables - just add glitter! via MakelyHome.com
I really dig the old travel posters from the 1950s and 1960s.  They take me back to an era that I have only seen in the movies – a time when women got dressed up to fly and the men always looked as dapper as Don Drapper.  The colors and the types of drawings in these posters are right up my alley.

No-Sew Color Block Summer Throw Blanket

Hello, Jackie here from Teal & Lime.

One thing I have learned in my first 10 years of marriage is we will never agree on the ideal temperature for a room. He always likes it about 10 degrees colder than me…year round. Can you relate?

In the winter, I cuddle up with my faux fur throw blankets. I have baskets and bins in every room to hold throws.  The only downside I see to spring is putting my thick, cozy throw blankets away.

Now with the ceiling fan constantly whirring overhead until late fall, I still get the chills. Remember, my hubby likes it 10 degrees cooler? He also likes a breeze. The cool splash of moving air against my skin gives me goosebumps, even in the warmer months.

This spring I am swapping out my favorite winter throws with some colorful, lightweight throw blankets. They are just thick enough to keep away goosebumps.
