Home Sweet Home

Mandy linked up for a "Home Tour" and I thought I'd jump on board. I love looking into other people's homes so why not let them peek into mine!?


Lindsey at The Bargain Blonde is hosting the home tour and it's week 3; living rooms.

We have 2 living rooms; the "formal" living room at the front of the house and our "living room" living room that's attached to the kitchen and houses the TV. This is the one where we spend all of our time so we'll start there...
This is the view from our bedroom doorway.




It's a litte small but we love it and it's so great that it is practically part of the kitchen. I can watch TV while I cook or Dan can "keep me company".

The formal living room has more comfortable couches and is roomier but it is at the front of the house, so not as convenient.
View from the entry way.
I'm standing in the dining area taking this pic. I made the pillows on the couch and my next project is to make some curtains for the windows.
Dining area with Hannah dog in the corner.
This is the entry way and bookcase with a lot of my glassware, family photos, keepsakes etc.
Our wedding wall, these are the picture frames I made for our table numbers. I hung this before I got all of the prints and didn't have enough photos to fill the frames. The numbers are the leftover table numbers but they have no significance. I need to change them so they read our wedding date 9.5.09 but they are a conversation piece for now!

After looking at all of the other entries I'm so inspired to add and change some things. I'm loving the floating shelves, candlesticks, mini lamps etc. I guess I need to hit up the thrift stores...I'm a little nervous but I keep seeing gals post amazing finds and who doesn't love a great deal? I've got lots of summer projects on my mind after reading these posts!

Thanks for touring my living rooms!
