"She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness." 


These words have been my meditation the past few days, it's a real challenge to put it into practice, but I'm doing my best with what I have; mentally, physically and spiritually.

Livingroom progress

Our living room is FINALLY..... well, somewhat finished

The hardest part about this room is that the shape is extremely hard to arrange furniture around.  It's an open floor plan, with one solid wall, one window wall, a corner fireplace, and the other side is open to a bar counter and the kitchen.

Here's a list of item and color details: sofa - Clist, Wingback chairs - Clist, shag rug - HomeGoods, hot air balloon pic - Hobby Lobby, Duane Armstrong art on mantle - Clist, cream side table - Bed, Bath & Beyond, white basket - Goodwill, two matching brown baskets - Hobby Lobby, topiary tree - Estate sale, linen curtains - Ikea, curtain "Rod" - Aaron & my own creation, ceiling paint - Hot Stone(Lowe's), wall paint - Botanical Bath(Lowe's)

Craigslist Find

These twins were found on Craigslist for $150 - Aaron and I love them!  

Not only do they look nice, they are good quality and surprisingly comfortable
