China Cabinet Redo

Thanks for taking the time to stop by for a visit. There's

not allot I can do with all this stuff in this little space,

so I decided to make a few changes to my china hutch.
The inspiration came from this place mat I found at Ross
last fall.

The hutch was originally a dark wood tone, I wanted

to use it with the black chest I showed last week for

Table Top Tuesday so I gave her a good ole coat of

black paint and a little distressing and the pieces work

pretty well together.

I found this wrapping paper at the Dollar Tree last

year at Christmas. It's not an exact match, but pretty

close to the place mat.

 

Sorry for the glare!

So I guess thats about it for my handiwork this week.

So lets do a little house shopping in my little town.

Now I can promise you that if I had the chance ten

years ago to buy this ole girl, she would have been

mine. She a little big for just two people, at 3800

square foot she is only 400 square foot larger than

our old house and that's a little much. If you like

 old houses, you will be drooling over this one!

Would you like to sip some tea on the porch?

Gotta love those windows and doors!

Music room, ladies parlor?

Lots of great dinners here, I bet!!

Can we say Foyer??

Upstairs hallway leading to the upstairs balcony.

One of the four bedrooms.

 Ok, so now I'm going to walk my babies and since

this ole girl is on our walking route I'm going to drool.

But first, I'm going to join in Table Top Tuesday at

A Stroll Thru Life.

Old Things In A New Space

 Thanks for stopping by!

It's been quiet a bit of time since my last post, but I

been visiting everyone. Of course we made the move

and what a time it has been. Moving back to the south

after living in WV, quiet a change, even though I did

visit often. We still have not bought a house, but it was

blessing that we already had a rental and could move

everything here until we buy. Probably 50% of

 everything is still in boxes, but remember I moved from

3400 square foot to 1400 square foot, but since we are now

empty Nester's we can live with a little less. With that said

you make the best of the situation, especially if you are

lucky enough to sell a house in this economy!

Well here is my contribution to Tabletop Tuesday, yes

that is brown paneled walls you see there, ( and carpet to

match). Everything on this chest is from our old house

just put together a little differently.

 The lamps were yard sale finds a couple of years

age. They were an ugly green but with a little

 black paint don't look all that bad. This is a small

dining area off the living room.

 A $2.00 yard sale find last summer.

 Gotta unpack that wine!

 A little light on the situation!

I'm linking up to A Stroll Thru Life tonight and I can't

 wait to see everyone's creations. Hope you will visit

again soon and join me in exploring my new little

town in the low country of South Carolina. From time

 you can go house hunting with me.

Hope everyone lets me know what they think, I love

 comments!



Welcome To My Table Top Tuesday!

 Welcome to my chaotic world!

We have a closing date for Friday, unless it gets

changed again. I have been visiting each of you

and I must say, there is some really fantastic

fall decorating going on out there!

 Want to meet a very good friend of mine?

 Now as silly or crazy as this will be to the rest of

you, as I cleaned out the attic, I had to do one

bit of fall decorating!

 Just wanted to say Welcome to the two little

beautiful girls that will be living here!

I hope you have many happy days in the ole girl!

Thanks for visiting.
