Sunlit Rooms








































The sun was coming in so pretty tonight that I thought I would show you some of the rooms in my house.  This room is called the "pretty room".  Boys are not normally allowed but they tend to sneak in anyway!








































This room was sage green until recently.  We don't get much sunlight in here so the blue makes it much brighter.








































I really do enjoy decorating and nothing stays the same for very long.  Things often get moved from room to room.








































I have always wanted a round dining room table and found one earlier this year.  It was made by Amish men and is 72 inches round.  It seats eight comfortably.  It is screaming for a quilt which is on the never ending list of projects.  Maybe a rug too!








































This piece was purchased at a resale shop for under $250.  I have found many of my pieces from resale shops, flea markets and garage sales.  There are some wonderful bargains out there.  Oh, and I would wallpaper every inch of my house if I could!








































I thought I would throw in a picture of the kitchen, post dinner, lest you think that the rooms are always clean.  If I can make the sewing room presentable, I will show you that tomorrow.  Blessings!


Joyfully,

  9. I think it should be called the pretty house Renee! I loe it all but that dining room makes me want to fall over in a faint. The wallpaper, white chairs, gorgeous table and sideboard.
