Spring Home Refresh ~ Spring Home Tour ~ Farmhouse Style Decor ~ Cottage Spring Decor

[@csclose]

Mary, one of the things that makes your channel so unique is that we don’t see a huge haul of things you’ve gone out and purchased and styled within your home. So many KZbinrs go out and shop and spend hundreds of dollars on things for their homes which puts pressure on viewers, who may not have the funds to do that. And, like you said, if you feel you need something new in a space, you make it. Thank you for that…means a lot where gas prices are almost $4/gallon and grocery prices are crazy! Cindi (from WV). 🥰

Loved everything about this video. I am 73, born and raised in Ohio and we raised our two daughters here too. There is nowhere I would rather be. I love all the seasons, but Spring is my favorite. I simply love all the new life springing forth. It reminds me of Jesus and the new life He offers us. I live on a lake and this evening a pair of geese that I feed brought their 7 newly hatched babies for me to see. They are so tiny and cute...Little balls of yellow fluff. Enjoy and savor your Springtime, Mary.🤗🌱🐣

[@sherriepiechowski4556]

Well if that doesn’t get a person into a Spring vibe I don’t know what will 🌿🌷

[@ConservativeVeteran]

You're a great photographer, Mary.....the ruffling drapes, the raindrops on the tulips...everything is so lovely and welcoming. A man at Lowe's overheard me speaking about a sink skirt...he said, "What's a sink skirt?" He had no idea. I explained it to him.

[@amy83079]

This video was really well done. Excellent use of voice over, ambient sounds with underlying soft music and slo-mo shots of the house decor and garden. Plus, you removed the intro which was a good idea because it’s not needed. Two thumbs up 👍🏽 👍🏽

[@cherryvaleleatherock6900]

All of the birds, and outdoor sounds remind me of my childhood, in Northern Indiana.😁

[@debrazawlocki3975]

Very relaxing, yet inspiring.

[@HelenMoore-tn6tz]

Mary, I agree with your sister about watering your plants on a schedule. My late sister (who could grow ANYTHING!) had hers on a schedule - she actually had it marked on her calendar!

[@debrajasper7529]

I’ve watched you since the Pandemic. I love your simple style, using what you already have and flowers and greenery from outdoor. Thanks Mary for all you have done to ease the difficulties of our times. You are a blessing .

[@cherryvaleleatherock6900]

I also find Mary a Blessing.

[@SimplyBlessedDesignz]

I get super excited each time I see that you have posted a video. Love the little spring refresh, you always give me so many ideas. Thank you for all you do and the time you give. You are so appreciated.

[@shelleybeard1830]

I love how just simple things can make such a difference.

[@rosemaryharris6064]

Mary, all of your little touches are so refreshing especially the round tray with the fresh tulips, bee saucers and bright lemons. I love that simple look. I remember when you made the screen door. It looks so nice ~ I can almost hear that slamming shut sound. That sound along with the birds singing reminds me of wonderful childhood memories on the farm. Thanks for sharing sounds, scents and glimpses of this beautiful sesson.

[@suenewsome2756]

And one more thing. I love that you cover your sofa!! Makes it even more cottagy!

[@SharonHenscheid]

I love the sound of a screen door shutting… 💯

[@tinasalobecke66]

You have a gift of making your home so comfortable and beautiful Mary! Love this video, so relaxing to watch 🌷🌸

[@debbiecreter2005]

You said this perfectly!

[@theresaduncan9637]

The birdsong is so beautiful!

[@cattuslavandula]

Pool noodles are great for keeping furniture covers in place. Cut them to size and smoosh them in the folds where the cushions, arms and back meet. I tied ribbon loops around mine so they're easier to retrieve.

[@cherryvaleleatherock6900]

That's a wonderful idea!

[@categ4002]

I have used the noodle idea for couch on our RV for the last two years. It works great. If you don’t want to buy noodle you can roll up magazines and use them.

[@cindyclark9145]

I want to live at your house! ❤ Everything you have done in your home is so endearing and beautiful! ❤ A piece of ribbon and a button makes a perfect hanger for your hand towel…just a thought. ❤ I stop anything I’m doing when you have a video up…you are a treat for my day and bring me great joy!!! ❤

[@The_Tinkers_Cottage]

Mary, you could pull out your sewing machine and do a button hole for the hole on the dish towel. It will stand up better when you wash the towel.

[@marynagy8072]

Great job with the videography - seeing the tulips with beads of rain - the background music and rushing water, lovely.

[@sarahpollnow3137]

The outdoor sounds coming through the screen door are just awesome. ❤

[@denises9426]

All your hard work maintaining your gardens really shows in spring. Your yard is beautiful!

[@carolinedubose5136]

The bouquets of tulips are so cheerful and the pops of color make me smile!!!

[@MAJA80173]

Super love how you put your decor pieces together, so unique and not redundant. Simple yet so beautiful and clean! 🙌🏻👍🏻💕

[@patriciakumar115]

Your screen door is lovely and is perfect for your beautiful home. Mary, you're amazing!

[@shellydehart8217]

I’ve said it before n I’ll say it again. Your home is so inviting. It’s like it wraps around you n fills your whole self with warm fuzzy feelings that you don’t want to leave. All your fresh tulips are so pretty. Wish I could grow them but the squirrels dig them up every time. Watching this video gives me the inspiration of doing some Spring cleaning n some fleshing up in my home. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟

[@patriciaroush1686]

Your home is so inviting. I’m no good at decor at all. Just suggestion. Instead of cutting a hole that can get worse in your dish towel, use your button hole maker on your sewing machine. Have a most blessed day.

[@patriciajosey6686]

Brilliant idea

[@jannier9766]

I was surprised she didn’t make a buttonhole.

[@Iraknegnilam]

Or, sew a ribbon loop!

[@JeannieMitchellMyers]

I LOVE how you brought nature inside...the natural colors against the white backdrop, wow! I bet the blossoms when they open will be so beautiful, thanks for sharing. PS, I love Brooklinen!

[@kimhamburger6097]

The screen door is beautiful. Your home is so cozy. Love this video.

[@terrizimmerman5297]

We had a beautiful Spring in the desert and my roses are spectacular! But now Summer is upon us and it’s almost time for my hibernation! 🥹🥵 Your home is beautiful and I look forward to watching your projects outdoors.

[@pam7825]

I love the Ohio spring also! Love the photo of you & John! So sweet!

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

Your home and land are just gorgeous!! Love the screen door and the green coffee table. Just perfect!!! God bless you and your family.

[@CharnellLanayVlogs]

Omg! It’s been a while since I was able to watch a video so relaxing thank you so much for sharing. I make me want to move.

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Love hearing the birds singing outside your screen door. Your refresh of your home is lovely and relaxing to watch. 🤗

[@pamelatheado6484]

Hi Mary. I love your videos. They are chock full of great ideas and so refreshing. I look forward to Wednesdays and your new video. I too live in Ohio, central Ohio. I love it here except for the harsh winters we get sometimes. You are truly amazing to me. Great picture of you and your husband. Beautiful gardens, lovely home.

[@MarthaPatricia06]

Beautiful

So peaceful and satisfying to watch.

[@maryfinn6434]

Love your screen door❣️ My grandma had one.. I can still hear the sound that it makes.

[@GlendaCampbell-v5h]

So refreshing to see your spring updating, the outdoors come to life with new spring growth and hear the beautiful birdsong from your yard. Your videos are always calming.

[@pennyharris1543]

That screen door is beautiful, and your home always looks so inviting. I live in an old cinder block house without screens. I miss not being able to open up the windows.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

You could probably make some or have some made.

[@rbirkheimer59]

Oh Mary, I have wanted a screen door forever. I love the one you made so much:) I adore your home, you always make everything so clean and crisp. Flowers and the crab apple tree branch are so, so pretty. Thank You for brightening up my day. God Bless. Hugs, Rebekah

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I got mine at an antique store, it wasn’t that expensive. You would have to write down or remember the dimensions, of course.

In the opening? The Lavender came back? 💜 Mary honey chyle!.... both of your thumbs are green! I am filled with admiration for the Lavender coming back in Ohio! - Lavenderless in Indiana 😊

Your video shows the beauty of God's creation...the simplicity of raindrops on tulips shows His handiwork...your home is beautiful and there's nothing better than fresh cut flowers in a mason jar and a peach candle to go with it....loving your style!!

[@sallyvandergraaff5622]

I can't believe you made a screen door. You're so inspiring! I love your can-do spirit and hope to use some of your design ideas.

[@idgrammy]

My husband and I just returned from spending two nights at Apple Blossom Cottage. What a lovely place of serenity and beauty. it was a perfect place to relax and retreat in the natural beauty of God's creation and the loveliness of what you and John have created. I thank God for gifting you and for your gifting us with your creativity.

[@kathrynmcmeekin9931]

I love watching your gentle calm way and decorating.

Mary, you always make your place so inviting and cozy. I love how you bring the outside in with your decor.

Your home is always lovely ❤ I really enjoy watching what you are up to. I have learned so much these last few years. God bless you, Mary and your family.

[@granswick8211]

Sweet Mary, you are my favorite u-tuber! I look so forward to your videos, you are amazing and so talented! My daughters and I stayed in Sparrows Nest last spring and didn’t want to leave! Thank you for all the time and talent you put into your videos!

[@rgvtexas8391]

I cover my brand new sleeper sofa sectional too. I have a kitty and no matter how much I brush him he sheds. Aloe is a succulent and doesn't require a weekly watering. It's only mid April here in S Texas and it's already hot. Our spring comes in February.

[@kathyhelmold7358]

I love your home!! Both indoors and outdoors!! Simply gorgeous. You always have it decorated so pleasing!!

[@TheGardenAndWormLady]

I always get so excited when I see a new video pop-up 🤗

Thank you for taking us along today, and especially for sharing your kitty. Your whole house is looking absolutely lovely.

Spring looks very much the same over here in Northern Germany. And I love it. I also water my indoor plants on Thursday. 😅

[@Scolie-z3m]

Love how fresh everything looks when you spring clean .But we are in Autumn now and it has been a rather warmish time .But now we are getting cooler mornings and nights ,and some sunny days and some gloomy ones .Weather has been very odd this year .

[@angelahagood3639]

How beautiful yet simple. Just “shopping” in your home for pieces to refresh is genius! I love your curtain under the sink. I might give that a try. I have a bunch of fabric just sitting around waiting to be turned into something. I wish you could send us the wonderful smells of outside through your channel. I envy your screen door. They’re so wonderful!

[@tinaadrain9346]

Mary, you have such beautiful tulips, your garden is stunning.

[@goodvolks2know372]

Nothing wrong with a plant watering schedule - actually my day is Wednesday. And I agree, my plants are beautiful looking because of it. Lucky you, having that wondering Spring weather there, we are still much too cold here still in Southern Tier of NY.

[@carolsopinski4549]

I love the idea of fresh herbs on the countertop! So economical and fresh❤

[@Mary-f5k7u]

Thank you for sharing your inspiration, I too love getting my home cleaned up after the long dark winter days. I change out my couch throws and cushion covers for lighter colours.some new green plants 🪴 also brings the feeling of spring inside, I love Ivy and Boston ferns.and cleaning the windows help to transform my home looking forward to sunshine and warmth .love from Ireland ☘️💚

[@ozarkview928]

Oh yes , definitely you need a watering schedule for houseplants! I check for water every week and if a plant is not happy where it’s at I move it until I find it’s happy spot 😅. I’m not even that keen on houseplants but I need something to grow during winter .I love your back deck where you here the spring ! I’d live on that rocking chair 😅

Appreciate your channel. My husband and I went to college in Ohio. One suggestion-shake out your porch rug and sweep before you open the door to your lovely home.
