Beginnings of a Statement Wall...

I have been changing a few things in the great room of our new home.

 When we moved into the house the art really threw me off.
We have such a long stretch of wall... what to do with it?
I have some vintage portraits hanging... but they were void of any color.

I wanted a bit of my blues... and a new fresh look.

So I added some barn prints I had blew up into posters.

They were 4-12 dollars each and I reused frames I had.

I painted them all black....in a high gloss spray paint.

All Is Merry and Bright

Happy Holidays Dear Friends...

Yes, I know I've been absent for quite a bit.

I had to replace my digital camera at a bad time for bloggers.

But we are all set now... and I hope to see you more often again.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.

We certainly did.

Looking Like Christmas Is Coming {In The Great Room}

 Hello again...
Yesterday I shared the fireplace and today I will share the rest of the great room.

 I see all the blogger home tours online this week... all over the top drenched in Christmas.

 I shared photos of the great room... but you have not seen much of the entry area.

 So today we can take a closer look...

{Saturday Shopping } 5/20/17

I am still on the hunt for unusual blue accents for the new living room area.

Amazon was quick to point out these pillow covers.

I love that they were a little different and will add some print to the area.

And they were cheap... less that $4 each... SOURCE.

{Simple Decorating Ideas} Adding A Touch Of Burlap

Welcome back dear sweet followers...

Today's idea is easy on the pocketbook and quick to do.

But these little touches are so fun and make a big impact.

Spring and Summer are my favorite seasons.

I love warm weather and the brighter colors we can add to our spaces.

So today I am taking a hum-drum little terra cotta pot and faux sedum and adding some country charm.
