The light from the windows is awesome in that I imagine as the day goes by the light hits differently and at the end of the day is softened to a glow. I would love to see how others incorporate this in their decor.

I so love what you have done with the do over in your bathroom. I’m helping a friend who has a similar dilemma. Her bath is very small, and like an alley. I, especially like the way you did the walls. Although she is more of a Farmhouse woman, I can take your ideas, and incorporate to match her style. Thank YOU, so much for sharing.

That is a great idea! And thank you for complimenting my glass ball curtain. It was a project that took a long time to put together. CB2 sells the the orb strands and one day it hit me to make a curtain of them. I took awhile to figure out where in my house but I love how it turned out. Dusting them is a whole other story!!!

Thank you!

I am still looking at subtle patterns to paint on the panels. I have chosen a golden yellow as the color.

I really feel this is going to work well with the tall wall to bring the eye upwards and not just eye level.

Thank you!

I am not sure what to do behind the tree except maybe paint a lighter color behind it so the tree shows up more. But I was thinking it would be fun to wrap the tree with white Christmas lights. Could be a fun way to liven up the tree!

I love your glass balls hanging above they are amazing!

I love the wood panel look. It really complements the wall and the plant. It is funny how we forget we can go up beyond eye level especially with a focal piece that not only fills the space behind the plant but draws the visual even higher!!! Love it

I love the way you’ve used the plates on your wall! I have an Aunt who has about 25 all tucked away in boxes. I am going to share your idea with her. (You can’t enjoy the things we buy, if they are buried or hidden!).

I love the idea. I would never have thought about framing a piece of wallpaper. That’s a unique idea. So often, you see the same art from house to house. I like being original, and this fits that bill!

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to share something I used, and even though it may not be a new idea, it was for me. I have many, many quilts that were pieced by my Mom’s mom and the quilting finished years later by my Dad’s Mom. These are treasures to me. I even have some I have quilted. They were all in a plastic bag in the top of a closet, as there was so…

I found some antique wallpaper remnants online (this was is from late 1800’s) and thought it would be perfect to frame. This piece was actually used as a sample to show in the store front. It is hand painted and has writing on the back with customer name. I love the history there!

Hard to capture with the glare – I will post another shot.

My Dad grew up on a farm, that still exists today. Unfortunately, most of the things that were used for function in his youth, have been replaced by the modern era. I have an aunt that still lives at the home place. She has taken the old iron kettle, which was used to cook and heat water many years ago, and gave it new meaning.
