Hutch Love

I love, love, love this hutch. I saw it and knew I HAD to have have it. But.... I had to sell my other one first. So I put it down in Taras booth in Cobblestone Antiques and it SOLD! I was so excited to bring it home yesterday, also with some other things I will show later. 
There was really nothing wrong with the other one, I just loved this one. It reminds me so much of Restoration Hardware furniture and is going to go  well with everything I have planned for our new look.

Furniture Graveyard

I recently had the privelage of seeing an actual furniture graveyard! I was so mixed with emotions....sad for the furniture that needed ALOT of loving care and so excited to see all the potential projects! I acquired a couple chairs from this graveyard with hopes of ressurrecting them to a beautiful life again.

They need  ALOT of work and I am actually intimidated by them, but I have some great plans for them and hopefully they will turn out.

So the last couple days I have been practicing on a chair that I have always wanted to redo but didnt have the courage.  Iposted this chair before because I painted the legs...thats easy! I didnt know what to do with the blue vinyl...ew. I dont know how to tuft either, but as you saw above I will have to learn!

My living room...in transformation

I have decided to totally change my color pallete. Although I LOVE green, I am wanting something more subdued. My vision is grays, barn woods and crisp whites. Here is my living room now, but not for long!

We recently received an offer on our house, so it might be in our new house. Either way I cant wait to share the new changes with you!

Its the best day...

I have an strange affection for books. Not the ones you read, oh no, I dont read. The ones you look at with the pretty pictures. I received 3...count them...1, 2, 3, books today and I am a happy camper. I will busy the rest of the evening with my favorite glass of wine and my picture books.

I have several other books I love to look at over and over, (my husband actually makes fun of me...the nerve!)

Let me know what you favorite "picture" books are!
