We have been busy

We have been working on selling stuff at the farmers market and getting ready for the baby. Both things have been taking up a lot of time. Here are a few pictures of what we have been up too.  We painted our bedroom and moved all the baby things into our room. We are currently 22 weeks pregnant and everything is going really well this time and we are excited getting ready for our new baby who is due in October.

Remodeling ~ Bathroom

Before

After

           

We spent the 1st day of the new year painting our bathroom and the second day hanging bead board. We worth it though, I think.  Our bath room is tiny and a looked a little depressing so we decided that the first project of 2011 would be to give it a face lift.  When we bought the house it had really ugly wall paper that we pulled off an painted the walls white. It was a little boring and so we decided to freshen up the little space with wainscoting, and chair molding. A classic, look that fit the style of  our house. We painted three of the walls a very pale yellow green and the wall with the sink a dark gray the end result is fantastic. With the bead board and little updates it looks much more fitting in our old house. 

Signature sent

             I love the idea of swapping out seasons to change the décor in your house. I want to get to that point with our home. Where it just feels inviting year round. I am one of those people who moves the furniture around every couple of  months, I get bored with things being the same all the time. I figure that altering the decor with little things will make a big difference and not require a lot of storage space or money to do.I have been working on doing this starting small with place-mats for the holidays that I put on all sorts of flat surfaces and then tablecloths that are different for each season. Now I've been working on smell.
            I read about the idea of finding a signature sent for the season in your home and I really like that idea. I’ve been toying with the idea of defuses and finding a nice holiday sent maybe a cooking smell (vanilla or something cinnamon or a heavier floral) I'm thinking that I may make my own all you need is a few reeds, a container, and the liquid. Smell is connected to memory and can change your mood. I love the idea of changing the mood in each room with a different sent.
