we did.. Crazy town.. On the blog side of things, I discovered a whole new group of readers (or rather, they (you!)
First, let’s start with some “before” pictures from before we moved in, when we were having the house inspected, and some from this first few months we were here too.I searched through my old laptop and here are some of the pictures I found.. That paint color was really quite something.
Kind of a really soft aqua accented by lots of scuff marks.You can’t really see, but it wasn’t really much of a dining room at all for the previous owners.More of a pass-through, catch-all kinda space.
But like I said, I. needed.For some reason in that photo you can mostly only see the ceiling.
But anyway, that gives you an idea of how it used to look..
When you think of a dining room, you think of it coming with a few basic things that make it a bit of a special space for special occasions and fond family memories: A chandelier or some kind of special hanging light fixture, pretty flooring, maybe some built-in cabinetry to hold china and crystal.If you’d like to get to know Rugs USA a little more as well, you can follow them on.
Coming up soon (I hope!): A new bedside table to replace the little white one and some fun projects in the corner where the bassinet will go once the new baby boy gets here!Oh my goodness, did Kennedy ever love making these!
She was still talking about how fun these were to make a week after they were done, so I knew I had a winning craft on my hands.. OK, so they’re not really the cutest things ever, but they definitely won me some “fun mom points” and that counts for something.I’m always on the lookout for fun, relatively easy crafts that we can make together, and if it involves recycled materials, all the better!.
