The new addition

As mentioned in my last post. There is a new addition in my living room.  I guess you'd actually call it a replacement since there was already one there.  But it is... another new fan!  Check it out...


Here is a reminder of what we had before.


I don't know that I have a close up to share.  But this was your basic builders grade fan.  Unfortunately with the added details of some kind of speckled paint job.  But anyway, isn't the new one so pretty!?  It's another one designed by my sis in law, made by Emerson.  It's called the
Highpointe.  I've taken some full room shots that I'll try to post soon too.

Next up.  THE BACKYARD!  We've been working on it as the weathers been warming up and we are making some fun changes (especially this weekend)!  It will finally have a more "finished" look. Can't wait!!

House Tour Part One

*note:  I'm not sure why the pictures in my old posts are disappearing so I apologize for that.  Hopefully I can get that figured out, but we'll see... 

This week I'm showing half of the house, the entry and living room and all of the upstairs. 

Here is our living room/entry.  The room that's evolved the most over the last year. 
and tah-dah!  Theres that new piece of furniture!  After a LONG story (I've decided not to get into because it is a long ridiculous story) I finally have my new pretty furniture in there.  Don't laugh at our tiny tv.  A new tv in there is low on the priority list so I borrowed this one from the guest bedroom in the meantime.  In case it's hard to tell, the recessed panels on the cabinets are mirrors, it's really pretty in person.
Hopefully we will get our new fan in the next couple months for this room.









Here is the office.  Not a lot of changes since my last post on it.  We still need to change out our fan for the one we still have sitting in our garage.
Oh and no our carpets don't always look like that.  We had just gotten them professionally cleaned.



 
Here's my little Rae Rae's room.  It wont look like this much longer! Sad but exciting!



Not much different in our boring bathroom.  Although I did finally add blinds to cover the ugly glass block window.

The master bedroom.  Which makes me so happy.  I love my bedroom.  I still need a new fan for it but everything else is pretty much done for now.  Although I'll probably eventually add more dramatic curtains, probably floor to ceiling.

Living Room: A Work in Progress

Well, I've added just a few things to my living room/entry now, including my new rug!  I've been saving for awhile and I got a great deal from Overstock.com.  After making the rest of the money I needed for the rug at my garage sale a couple weeks ago I went for it.  So here are some pics... note, I also got a new mirror for the entry and a really fun vase!



In taking the above picture, I noticed an issue. That unsightly lamp cord.  So I quickly fixed the problem...



Ta-da!

Here are some closer ups of the new rug...


And a neat bonus, not planned, is that it matches the pattern in my table runner in the adjoining dining room.


I also framed a couple of our pictures from our recent family photo shoot. 

And for fun I will show a few before and afters.  The befores are from before we did the new paint color and before we painted the fireplace.
