House Tour

Curious about my house?  I'm one of those people who can't get enough of other people's houses, so I thought I'd share some of mine with you.  Here's a quick glimpse into our house.  Check back often as most of these rooms change frequently.  You never know when I'll post about some of our new changes!  Enjoy...

Living Room

Grass: garden; Blue/Green Vase: Can't remember; Mercury Glass Mirror: Target; Mirror: Brett's childhood mirror; Picture/Frame: Picture is from honeymoon in Italy, frame: found; Valances: fabric from Joann's, my mom sewed them; Chair: Target; Blanket: Crate & Barrel; Pillow: Anthropologie; Lamp: Ikea; Bookshelf: garage sale; Buffet: from Brett's parents; Gold Owl: from my Grandma

Dining Room

Table: Target; Lamp: ???; Couch: Sofa Express (out of business); Picture/Frame: Photo from honeymoon in Switzerland, Frame: found; Old Window in corner: old window from when we had windows replaced; Valances: fabric from Joann's, my momma made the curtains (isn't she awesome!); Buffet: from Brett's parents; Red Chair: from Brett's parents, I recovered it; Table: Crate & Barrel; Chairs: World Market; Chandelier: Lighting Universe

                                                                        Kitchen after.

Basement

Frames: Walmart; Photos: from honeymoon in Italy/Switzerland

Decal: Walmart; Frame: found; Chalkboard paint: Home Depot; Shelf:

Hanging Chandelier: Brett and I made this from a lamp kit.  The paper is from Utrecht.

Outside

Gate: Lowe's.  Brett and his brother welded this bad boy together.  We can open the small gate part to walk through (great for taking the dogs out for a walk) or open the entire gate from the sides so we can drive through to the garage.  House paint color: Black Fox from Sherwin Williams

Dominic!  And a stone wall/fence.  For some reason, this corner of our yard was not fenced in.  Not good with two dogs.  Enter my dad, the mason.  He built the wall.  The stone is from Hamilton Parker.  Fencing is from Lowe's.  We love this - it added so much to our house and yard.  Thanks again Dad!  Our herb and veggie garden is right in front of the wall.

So, that wraps up the house tour for now.  I hope to be able to share the bedrooms and all of the recent changes with you soon.  Hmmm, that means I've got to get back to working on those rooms ;).
