Monday at My Home

Hello my Luvs!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, with lots of good rest!
I on the other hand was busy busy!
My new office chair from Overstock arrived!!! I love it with the sheepskin draped over it so cozy! Note to self get another one from Ikea!

I thought I would just show the cowhide in the family room.

My biggest project was painting our guest bedroom. We are turning it into a big girl room for Evie.
This is the guest bedroom before. Ignore Evelette's sippy cups she insisted on putting there! ; )

I painted the whole room white even the ceiling and woodwork. It was the last room in our house to be painted and it feels good to have that done. I cut out triangles of fabric remnants I had and sewed them together for the penant. We decided to move the green dresser in here for storage for her.

I found the lamp at the GW and painted it white. My sister was so sweet and hot glued the flowers on from the dollar store.

I think we are off to good start!

Leah it is looking great. Love your bunting and your sister is a doll glueing the flowers on for you. Great satisfaction when you can move furniture from another room to another and it works. Sinead x

I love the turquoise wall color. It's my favorite color. It's so serene and relaxing. Reminds me of the beach!

Can I have just a tad bit of that energy! I love the all-white room. This has possibly inspired me to makeover my 11 yr old's room. Thanks for the tour as always:)
