Please excuse the mess, we just pushed furniture from one spot to another while we did the floor.....LOVE my new floor!(we put down 478 sq ft of it) We still have to do trim work, new lighting, replace that ugly door and if the budget allows....cover the ceiling in bead board.<br />So now 3 small rooms and the kitchen are all one open area. Our 18 year old son said "Mama this is like a whole new house!" <br />I have got my furniture in place and we are gonna bring my dining room table in from storage. I hope we still remember how to eat at a table! I can't wait to decorate...and show the big reveal of the whole area.<br />I Will be back to show you some made over furniture pieces.... and some curtains I am tyring to decide on....promise!Raggedy Angelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10991055119879540888noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605413526377306033.post-23923392038998743132010-01-01T18:42:00.011-05:002010-01-01T21:40:56.083-05:00Old Christmas?Have you heard of Old Christmas.....see I am not late posting these Christmas Photos...because Old Christmas is not here yet!

You remember the pictures that were hanging above the mantle and the eyes followed you! I thought this would be a great time of year for that....although I don't think there eyes will follow you!!! <br />Right check on the images to save it to your computer. Enlarge them to the size you want, print them out and frame them up! <br />Another suggestion is to print them on fabric, and make little pillow tucks. Here is a tutorial for <a href="http://www.ewenmeprintables.com/shop/index.php?act=viewDoc&docId=13">printing on fabric<br /></a> <br />Don't forget to show us how you display them......watch out for the eyes!<br />Happy Sunday!!!Raggedy Angelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10991055119879540888noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605413526377306033.post-29844055915994925872009-09-22T14:45:00.014-04:002009-09-22T16:36:03.228-04:00A Little AutumnI got my Harvest Swap from Julie, <a href="http://julie-countrygirlatheart.blogspot.com/">Country Girl at Heart</a>. <br />I knew when I found out we were swap partners that I was in for a treat....and I was so right!!!
