Good day everyone! How are you? I hope your weather is thawing and warming up for you. It is definitely starting to here in the Carolina’s YAY! Today, I am sharing all things Lemon. We have home decor, recipes, wreaths and more.
Farmhouse kitchen NOT white HERE
I love lemons, I love them in decor, recipes, water and yes even for cleaning.I thought I would share a few of my lemon posts from the past and found a few more to throw in the mix.
Lemons are a perfect decor accent, whether you put them in a cloche.
The cute lemon tree found at Walmart with a little pot makeover I did myself. I painted the terracotta red and stenciled the words sweet. Always fun to make it your own way, your own style.

or even make a pretty wreath. Ann’s is much prettier than mine. Keep in mind, I was only blogging a short time when I whipped this one up. However, this lovely diy lemon burlap and lemon wreath by Ann On Sutton place is no rookie job.
Great tutorial too!
How cute and easy is this Lemon, lime, orange topiary! Take a kabob skewer, paint the fruit, stick in a mini pot, or mini Brule bowl and add some cute ribbon.
Make your own diy lemon dish towel pillow, and it just so happens to have lemons on it. See the theme here, perfect for Spring!
Now you can’t forget a few lemony refreshing desserts either
These lemon 7 up muffins were easy, two ingredients, and oh so good.
You need to give them a try!
My friend Ann also shared her Lemon snowball cookies

Now you can’t forget all the uses for lemon when cleaning
I recently used lemon juice on our hardwoord floors
You know, come to find out, you can also make your own furniture polish with olive oil and lemon
Furniture polish — Make your own furniture polish by mixing 1 part lemon juice and 2 parts olive oil. Another choice is to mix lemon juice with mineral oil. Apply a small amount to a cloth and use the same way you would your regular polish. For best results mix in small amounts, it should be used the same day it is made.
Thanks for stopping by today.
Here are some of my favorite Lemon picks you can grab anytime on Amazon.

I’m a lemon lover too. I don’t think I’ve ever had a lemon something I didn’t love. From beverages to desserts. Mmmmmm.

Now you made me hungry! LOL! Lemons are so cheery – our weather warmed here a bit the last of the week but now it’s cold again and supposed to get colder 🙁 But spring has to come sometime and I cannot wait to make my sweet tea with lemonade again!

My favourite lemon dessert is from middle school when we made lemon squares. Delicious, and I still have my home made cook book from then…back in the 60’s. I really need to make them again. And yes, lemons are wonderful in decor. I’ll have to pin this for when I have time to check out all these fantastic links. Thanks for the round up!
Debbie 🙂
