A little while ago, while my husband, Jake was in Las Vegas for his annual guys weekend, I decided to “Girlify“ our living room.
It wasn’t really intentional, It just sort of happened on it’s own. I first brought in some of Jake’s Grandpas paintings and then decided to play up on the color a bit. Yes, I said Color. It’s a new thing for me.
And because my Jake is such a good sport and so supportive, he told me it looked nice. I’m sure he also knows that it will be switched around again in a month or two.
What is so funny is that my last post was all about dark and masculine rooms. I was totally inspired by them and wanted to bring that into my home, and here I have done the Complete Opposite.
My Room is now Bright Colorful and kinda Girly!
It sure is nice to come in from the gloomy outdoors to a bright, sunny, happy room.
It feels like a early Spring pre-view.
Hello Abby!
I’ve also freshened up my shelves.
I brought in some bottles, twigs and butterflies.
I found this white wire basket at the thrift store recently. I had planed to spray paint it silver, but then decided I liked it white for now. It’s Perfect for holding all of my many decorating magazines.
