I added some daffodils from the yard, because I always think they make everything look even better.. Then I stood back and looked at it.. And tried to love it.. And the same thing bugged me about it, that always bugs me about everything.. And I said to myself, I said “Self, just stop it.

Why I needed to be consistently the wrong color, I don’t know, but it just felt right.. Once everything was all sewn up, I turned all 4 mini covers right side out and put them onto my cords!I love my overly dramatic lamp cords.

If you can’t hide it, feature it!.If you’re cringing as much as I am looking at those vinyl floors, don’t worry!A fabulous new rug is on its way to my door as we speak!This random crafty idea popped into my head the other day.

It was one of those ideas where you’re off and running with the project within 30 seconds of thinking of it, just cause you can’t wait to see if it will actually work out.. Kennedy and I have been playing around with some of the decor from the Fall bins this last week and she set up my little fantel (fake mantel) for me.There was a bit of an empty spot and I thought something like this would fit the bill for the harvesty kind of theme she had going on.

Plus we home decor types just seem to love ladders for some reason.

Every time I post a picture with one of my real old ladders in it, I seem to get roughly 3000 compliments on it.The whole vent hood area will be addressed soon and I’m really excited about the idea we have for that!.

We exposed some wires and some random pink uglyness above the sink too, so we added in a nice thick piece of crown molding to give that part of the room a nice finished look..I painted that whole area out in the same color as the rest of the walls in the room, but something still wasn’t quite right..

There are always unforeseen gaps and weird angles when you’re working with old houses like this!Sometimes those gaps aren’t really a big deal, but sometimes they can just ruin the whole look of a room.. Chris cut this long skinny wedge to fit right into the gap.
