Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes...

SOOOOO my daughter is now telling me that she is not sure about the green and pink. Jeez. Good thing all I have been able to do so far was a freaking box. lol. I think since I am going all shabby chic I will go that route in her room too. YAY! I think it will be beautiful. Stay tuned for a new mood board for her room. :) woot woot!

omg omg omg omg omg!!! I have completely changed my whole idea on how I want my house to look. I have seen so many beautiful rooms that look well loved and comfortable, and just HOME-Y! I am completely in love with Shabby Chic! I mean look at this beautiful sofa!


Could anything look comfier than that!? This sofa is of a price that I could never ever afford over at cottagechicstore.com. I know with my kids it may be impossible to go white.. so I may try an off white or linen or something like that... I dont know. I am just dying to cozy up with a book on a sofa like that! Gina at The Shabby Chic Cottage found this one at rooms to go, but for some reason I can not seem to find it on the website! grrrrr. I will be patiently waiting for lovely miss Gina to kindly tell me the name so i can harrass my local rooms to go about it..


Oh and if you take the time to check out the loveliness at cottage chic store, you will see why if I EVER EVER EVER can afford to... I will have them come redecorate my home for me. I am pretty sure that I could never in a million years come up with anything so absolutely lovely as what they have to offer on their website. I just love them. ::sigh:: ( daydreaming about all the lovely things I want...)

Sit back and relax



I just finished reupholstering this beautiful Ethan Allen Wingback chair. I used a shantung in "Spa Blue". After I put all the fabric on I put on nailhead trim. I think it looks beautiful. I am now going to sell it. :) I would keep it but it would only be mistreated by my kids. I would be so upset if anything got on it!
