Just before I moved everything out of my sewing room.....what a mess, eh?
A brighter picture. I am happy with most of the changes. The window treatments were an unexpected struggle, and not exactly what I had in mind. My mom likes them, so that's the most important thing. The only thing left to do is find some sweet things for the walls. That may take a while....I am loathe to put holes in these freshly painted walls until I find something I love.
I was thrilled to find this lamp. It has a little light under the shade, perfect for my mom during the night.
Every girl needs a satin heart pillow. There's enough fabric left for two small square pillows with cute ball fringe trim. That's down on my to-do list for now.
Since Thanksgiving is around the corner, I want to add to my thanksgivings list tonight. I could continue this list forever, and still not mention all my blessings. Right now I am so thankful for...
....warmth, because I just can't seem to shake the cold the last few months
...my son, Timothy, who makes me laugh every day
...my washer and dryer...you know how I feel about laundry : )
...books, because without the written word, life would be so bland
...lemons and cinnamon...they spice up my life
...Emily, my girl...whom I see so much of myself in, and yet I'm so grateful she is her own person
...lower gas prices
This post has been a long time coming. I had thought to have more pictures, but once I began to upload them realized these were the best of the lot. Many thanks to all of you for your encouragement during this big project.
I hope as you celebrate Thanksgiving with your loved ones, you'll be able to seize a moment of peace and find an opportunity to really see all there is to be thankful for.
