Decorating the house


So, after taking down my Christmas decorations I noticed how bare my house looked.  So, I started putting things up and decorating it.  My sister wanted to see what I had done so here are a bunch of pictures!
I have learned a lot from her over the years!!

Traded my next door neighbor my hanging wall sconces for this coat and hat wall hanging.
The hooks were originally gold...just traded them out for oil rubbed bronze.

A friend gave me that brown decorative wall hanging that now
sits on an easel and I just got the red vase at Rod Works...Love that Store!


This is where I had my tree up.  It was so bare when I took the tree down.
Now it's pretty again!

Those thingys above my bed used to be silver...spray paint..gotta love it!

Bedroom opposite my bed.

Love my bathroom!

One of my favorite places to look at in my home!  I've been wanting this picture for years and this year my family got it for me for Christmas! The microphones?...Mike and the kids
decided they needed to be ready in a minute to perform...LOL!

My fireplace mantle! 

The little rod iron hanging above my door to the garage used to be white.
It's amazing what you can do with a can of spray paint!

We don't have all our blinds up yet but we have these and our bedroom.  I decided that I would like to close off that direct view from time to time into our house from Mom and Dad's;)

Can't wait for dinner:)

I love my laundry/mud/pantry room!

Still lots more to finish in the house and to decorate, but I am lovin' it!
