PATTERN LOVE

After being gone for 5 days with the girls I came home to the best surprise, new bedding and a fresh coat of white in our living room. Best husband award for sure! 
Our room is an ever-changing spirit of color and pattern but its a fav hangout and that makes it a permanent safe haven. A lot of love is in the room from the bed Jeffy made after I loved one from Room Service. The homemade suzanni roman shade and pillows I sewed. A constant reminder of family dwells from our picture wall and the family hand-me-down dresser. An Aztec love rug from a great uncle and knobs from my grammy's that was my home away from home.

My sweet friend gave me the garden stool and the metal longhorn was a birthday gift for my Texan man. Our first piece of art was bought from a friend for 50 bucks and I am in love. It reminds me that you can blossom anytime in any situation.
 Our room connects our family. Its like a link for our girls to bond with us in a subtle way. Sometimes I dream of a bigger house with more storage but we come last these days and that is fine by me.

DIY's

Just can't get enough of this sweet chandelier Julie gave me. Little Green Notebook pushed me to paint it and gives the easiest direction on cornices out of foam core and duck tape.
Jeff is the best as always making me what I need. Long narrow table fits our dinning room just perfect. And ready to redo that picture wall.
Sad little bench found on sidewalk needed some love. Trina Turk outdoor, $9, and nailhead strip from Joanne's made this an easy job. Girls don't want me to sell but other projects are calling my name.
