A few before pictures….
(Remember, click here to see the rest)
And the updated pictures!
I’m unhappy with this entry way. I don’t like that picture there, and it’s all so dark with all of the wood. I’m going to replace the picture and lamp and re-style this dresser eventually. I’ve got other things that I’m working on right now, but I’m always on the lookout for the perfect piece of artwork and home decor items!
I added curtains and finished styling a few pieces–especially the mantle.
I used the same curtains from the living room in the breakfast room since the house is an open-concept floor plan and I wanted things to flow. I also added a picture–a cow picture from my mom and I had framed.
In our bedroom…
I added the most beautiful curtains! I’ve still got to add the tiebacks on the left and right so the curtains look like they are framing the room. And I’m still looking for the perfect piece of art to place above the chest of drawers. I bought something last weekend but it was too small so my mom is using it in her mudroom.
(The curtain rods look like they are slanting, but I think they look like that because I took this picture on the pano setting on my iPhone.)
And I added three botanical prints on the opposite side of the windows. I’m still looking for art to go above each nightstand. (So to sum it up, I’m always looking for artwork haha!)
Of course there are a million things I still want to do to the house:
-decide on a dining room table and purchase it before school starts
-buy a buffet and refinish it
-find chairs that are cheaper than $250/chair for the dining room
-buy a leather sectional for the upstairs tv room
-buy a tv for the upstairs tv room haha
-add more decorative pieces throughout the house
I’m glad to be back blogging today and I can’t wait to check out the other blogs linking up for the home tour!
