Welcome to “Come Sit By Me”! It’s our chance to catch up on the little things I’d share with you this week if we could chat on the porch over coffee (or wine depending on the time of day).

Life Lately in a Nutshell.

I took my fourth trip to the Round Top Antiques Show this week and for the first time one of the days had picture perfect weather (it always seems to be super windy, freezing, rainy, or sweltering). If you don’t know about this famous place to shop for home decor in this tiny town in Texas, I wrote a post about my first trip here.

Here’s a sample of some beautiful things that caught my eye:

But honestly, I came away disappointed in what was for sale this time, and I’m still flabbergasted that I bought nothing. I think me having less surfaces to decorate and just having decluttered so much to downsize had something to do with it. And maybe since this was my fourth trip, I’ve seen most of it before. But I truly feel like there were less cool and unique home accessories to see. And the prices have never been cheap, but now they were ridiculous. Like in the same ballpark as the Dallas Market—I mean, come on people, this is a semi-outdoor market out in the boonies!

We did discover this most charming restaurant called Boon & Co. that I highly recommend if you ever go:

But even though I didn’t bring anything new and fun home, spending time with my two friends and being able to stay in this legit Texas farmhouse on 70 acres in the hill country made the trip totally worth it. Here was my view eating breakfast on the porch:

Words to Get Through the Week.

Pretty Pictures, Yummy Recipes, and Things I Just Want to Spend Money On.

If you need a dose of decorating inspiration, this dreamy coastal home on Siesta Key Beach is a must-see. The soft color palette, layered textures, and breezy vibe have me completely smitten right now.

This tall damask ceramic vase from Anthropologie is such a beautiful blend of classic and modern—I can’t stop thinking about it! It’s one of the little luxuries I’m loving right now for adding charm to a spring refresh.

This speckled malted coconut cake looks like a robins egg and is almost too pretty to eat. It would be a showstopper for an Easter or spring gathering.

These Glenna toile drapery panels are pure elegance—timeless, tailored, and just the right touch of pattern. I’m loving how they instantly elevate a room while still feeling cozy and collected.

This bold and colorful Easter table from Dimples and Tangles is full of joyful inspiration! From the playful mix of patterns to the vibrant spring hues, it’s just so happy.
