Outside Of The House

It has occurred to me that I haven't shown you what the outside of the house looks like.

It's not completely finished.

There is still work to be done on the porches and the basement walk out.

There isn't any landscaping done yet, either.

Large has been working on the yard, he has been laying sod in the front.

Champ is helping!

It is still in process, but we are getting there!

Easter in the Half Bath

I had to put a little Easter in the half bathroom!

 

I added a little statue holding a nest with some eggs.

Just a little Easter decorating.

 

New towels and eggs in a nest.  

The little face is so cute!

 

I also found a new place to stash the toilet paper.

 

I think one of the eggs is hatching!!!

I have been decorating other rooms, too.

More to come!!

Easter Decorating

I have decorated the dining room for Easter.

My spring branches have bloomed and are beautiful!

Here is what the table looks this Easter.

For those of you that have seen the dining room, I moved the table to sit east to west, so this is what faces the kitchen.

I can't leave anything alone for very long!!

Below is an old postcard that I framed.

I got my pastel Fiesta ware out of the pantry and set the table with it.

I love my terracotta bunny.

                                      

The napkins have a cross stitched cherry on them, so cute!

Is your Easter table ready??

Bringing Spring In

I love spring branches!

 

 

I can't wait to see the blooms!

I don't have to wait on these!!!

 

I just couldn't resist the tulips.

B. E. A. U. T. I. F. U. L. 

 

I'm getting spring fever, can you tell??

The Rest of the Christmas Decorating for 2014

Here are some shots of other parts of the house decorated for Christmas.

 

I call this room "The EXIT Room", I painted the chalkboard that was already hanging in this room with chalkboard chalk and added the big gold bells and the boxwood wreath.

  

This red bench is in the upstairs hallway, just a Believe pillow and a star with a plaid throw.   

The guest room has a few snowmen and sleds in it for fun!

 

This is how I decorated the laundry room.

 

These rustic shelves are above the washer and dryer.

This was my favorite project of the Christmas decorating season.

I  bought this metal saucer at a garage sale two summers ago hoping I could decorate with it someday.

I only added a swag of greenery and some black and white checkered ribbon through the holes where the yellow plastic rope went and it turned out great!

 

 

Have a Merry Christmas!!!

 

 

And always remember Jesus is the reason for the season.

The Entry Way

Even though the entry way is not completely finished, I decorated it for Christmas anyway.

 

Just a couple of things.

 

I love this little choir boy with his hymnal.

 

Then I got out my toy soldier rug for the middle of the room.

 

That's it!!

Are you still decorating?

I just can't stop!!

The Christmas Diningroom

 

This is what the Dining room looks like all decked out for Christmas.

Nothing too fancy. 

 

I dug out an old sled and decorated it with greenery, a deer, and a couple of mercury glass trees.

 

You can see the old sled a little better in this shot.

What does your dining room look like?

 I would love to see pictures!!!
