A few new things around the house:
A re-do of the sun room with a new spindle-leg drop leaf table, a paisley rug, and two parsons chairs. The poinsettia from Christmas needs to go, but you get the idea...
This room looks so much better without the round table that we once had in there. I love this new look and it feels so much warmer... as a sun room should.
Second, a Pinterest idea: an over sized apothecary jar (from Pier1) filled with bracelets. I love chunky bracelets so when I saw this Pin I had to copy it for my own bathroom.
Next, an early birthday present from the Leevers: a ThirtyOne hanging organizer. I was about to order one for myself when Kayla surprised me. It is AWESOME. I think everyone with school-age kids needs one. I can keep the boys school/day care stuff in separate pockets, have a calendar for our family activities, Cole's school lunch calendar, a pocket to display the hours for Cole's school and holidays, and a place to write notes. I hung this in the laundry room close to the back door. I am loving it already.
We also moved the bench that was in between these two windows in the dining room and added this new cabinet/bookshelf. I am able to display more of our crystal and other antique pieces. I love the look and our dining room looks much more put-together now. Fun to have a few new things to spruce up the house before Spring!
And the best for last... the boot things! :)
If these boys don't make you smile, then I don't know what will. Let's hope this week is a good one for all!
Great post! But, can I get a shout out on the blog for my input into the sun room? Also...I really need one of those organizers.
ReplyDeleteKelley -- I meant to give you a shout-out!! I was in a hurry while writing the post to go check out your new house! Thank YOU for the decorating ideas and thank PEGGY for the table as our Chistmas gift. I totally could not do any of this alone. Oh, and I know where you can get an organizer... ;) (It really is perfect for busy fams like ours.)
DeleteLove it all! Especially my boys!
