Home Re-Do

I have missed posting on this blog! It's been a crazy month, from Disneyland, to boot sales picking up, to moving back into our home!

I am determined to make our home the happiest and most peaceful place for my family to be. I am starting room by room, and it's coming together a little at a time. I first started with our half bath on the main floor. I wanted to add a little pop, and so big wide stripes it was. The walls were already a pretty beige color, so I just used the semi-gloss white paint we used for the trim of the house to do the walls. I was so glad I did the semi-gloss, I like the detail of the two finishes (semi-gloss vs. satin).

 Then I've also been diligently working on putting our dining area together, and I think I'm finally there:

 I've loved how it turned out. Painted the walls (Valspar - The Harbor: but then we had them do a shade darker, so I'm not sure the exact color), spray painted the mirror a Nickle color, Ikea white curtains and I sewed on the blue stripes, light pendant from West Elm, white x-back chairs from Ikea, wicker chairs off of the KSL Classifieds, and the table from RC Willey. It is so refreshing to walk in and see this room, it just makes me so happy. It's so bright and airy, and I just love every last bit.

  1. It looks so good! I love your striped curtains! The wall color really lightens up the space.
