Little Things

I know it has been a long time since my last post, but I have a really good excuse!  We have been sick, sick, and more sick.  Big brother started with a cold, then little brother got it, then sister got it, and then mom got it.  We went to AZ for a long weekend and shared our cold with our relatives there and they shared some nasty virus called Herpengina, fever and then a very sore throat.  So once again big brother got it, little brother got it, sister got it, Grammy got it, and then mom got it.  Notice daddy never got anything!!  Lucky duck!  Good thing since he has to go off to work.  Anyway I thought I would post a few pictures of some of the little things I have done around the house.

I found this chair for a steal on Craigslist.  I love the shape!  Eventually I would like to recover it; it was once friends with a cat and there is evidence mainly on the backside.

I rearranged the living room so that the patterned chair was not right next to the patterned curtains.

I hung up a couple things in the corner.  The little boy picture is from my Grandma.  The mat is purple, so someday that will need to be changed, but let's just pretend it matches okay for the time being.  :)  I would like to find some kind of corner something, but I am not sure what at this point.  Any ideas?

 
I hung up these wall sconces in the entryway.  They are also from my Grandma.

See that little strip of blue around the corner?  Yep, my most recent furniture redo.  It's not quite done, but I am really excited to show it to you guys! 

I hung up the hall pictures.  We have a lot more hall wall space in this house, so I will need some more pictures eventually.

I found something similar to this on Pinterest and had fun making my own version.  It has birthdays and anniversaries of our friends and family.

This is the above the hip shot because everything below the hip is a mess.  :)

These are some signs I made for the laundry room before we even moved into the house.

Another above the hip shot...same reason.

 

Well, that's it for now.  Now that we are all completely almost better I will try to be better with my posting.  Keep your fingers crossed we stay healthy!
