Living Room Updates

I wish I could say it's DONE, but I'm still waiting on one final delivery.  Let me tell you this, I better be in love with these pillow covers, cause it's taken 4 weeks and they still aren't here!  Just to clarify, I'm not a demanding Etsian, I know some shops are busier than others, but I was told it would be a 2 week turn around.  In my head that means 2 weeks, not 4.   Enough said.

I'm still super happy with the direction the room is headed, and in my opinion it's looking purdy good.

Here is the area before.

Then remember when I asked you to vote on picture layouts?  Layout E got the most votes, even though I didn't Pinky Swear to use the winner, I did.  You guys were so right on with this layout.  Great job!

Here's a close up, I love the frames, and art just pops in them. 

Not a lot of changes going on here.  I replaced the green candles with these orange ones.  I just shopped the house.  I own a ton of candles...I'm good in a black out!  lol  Then I took the clock from the buffet that is behind the couch.  I really like it here, but am considering a really cute bird clock I saw at Pier 1 the other day.  We'll see.

Buffet area behind the couch got some love too.  To save my life I couldn't find a before picture, sorry.  These are pillow fronts that I framed.  I contacted the Etsian and asked her if she would just sell me the front panel.  She said yes, and art was born.  Check out her page Jolie Marche, I'm totally in LOVE with her pillow covers.  I may actually have to order covers next time.

Let me tell you this, the fabric is so soft, if I could I would recover my sectional in it!  Top quality.  I thought it was cool that they looked like vintage grain sacks.  BONUS.

I'm still at a loss for what to do on top of the buffet? I found a really cool apothecary cabinet I could replace the silver holder with?  What do you think?  Any suggestions are helpful.  I mean really, seems like you guys are the ones decorating my house, I just take your advise! 

Thanks Friends!  xx

Where I Party!!!

GIVE AWAY!!!!

Thank you for all of your support,  I adore all of you!!  I like to spoil you too, so for hitting 150 I'm doing another GIVE AWAY!  Woo Hoo.  Who doesn't love to win stuff?

 I was going to wait until I could reveal my living area, but I swear the frames I ordered are coming snail mail....sigh...Yep the give away has a little to do with my posts about 'Wall Hangings'. 

My Dad, the fabulous freelance photographer is donating some of  his work.  Thanks Dad, you are the BEST!  I've been trying to get him to open an Etsy shop, I even offered to run it for him...he's pondering...

I guess it's the day job and the side job that have him a little busy.  He also writes AWARD winning software in his free time...What can I say, I'm a Daddy's girl to the core!  lol
