Hello------- so we have been hunting....a lot. It has taken up soooo much time. I am excited to get back to getting the house going!!!!


Remember this table? The cashiers at the antique shop were whispering about me buying a table that was in 2 peices.


Well.... You know I could see their potential as 2 console tables: I LOVE THEM!!!! After primming them up a little, They fit perfectly on either side of the fireplace.



We've added new furniture and got this room almost together now..... Except for rugs...... which is driving me crazy. Who knew choosing rugs could be so hard? Anyway, stay tuned and I will post some pics of the room in the next couple days..

ok, guess what is behind the paneling? Brick, that is it!! Yes the brick the house is built with!! We decided to paint it ivory to brighten things up a bit. I am loving it!!!!! Now on to furniture.

Finally getting started_Can you believe this floor was under my carpet?

Wow--how I have procrastinated all summer!!! Finally getting something done. Here is the livingroom floor before---


And here is what was underneath!!!! Beautiful!!!


now time to get rid of or paint the paneling--- suggestions?
