I honestly don’t think it’s really all that well-suited to having its picture taken right now because there isn’t really a focal point and we’re still holding off on getting a new coffee table and replacing the console table that Jack somehow managed to dismantle in the last few months since he’s been walking.
Anyway….. Last week when I was getting ready to dismantle the.and put this together, I told Chris that he was definitely going to have to help me with it because it was just going to be too big of a job for me with this baby practicing his karate moves in my belly lately.
You know what though?I actually managed to get everything together in the course of a few days with no help at all, thanks to all of these easy projects I came up with that took me no more than 10 minutes each.It all came together to create this great cheerful first impression that seems perfectly well-planned out even if I just stumbled my way into it..
I wanted RED so I went and found these red stockings in my Christmas bins and this red picnic blanket that was with the camping supplies.. Next I went and quickly cut all these cedar branches from outside, just whatever I could carry easily in one trip.I stuck them in the stockings and in a vase and around here and there..
I kept the same wreath and just stuck a few sprigs of cedar in there too.
Wait, there’s no red here!cornices in a great fabric.
that I loved and I painted out the back splash in a bolder color to make it really stand out and feel more finished, even when it’s not even close!.Little details make a difference too..

Let’s take a peek at the other side of the room too.. Confession time: This picture was actually taken in February.
