Looking through photos of homes, decor, crafts, etc... I could do that for hours. Seriously.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">But, there is work to be done. While I'm still pecking away at the bathroom and bedroom projects, here are a few photos that will hopefully inspire you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Welcome to my family room.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It's been through <i>many</i> changes over the years. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This is the most recent BEFORE.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I enjoyed this and I kept it this way for a long time.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">But, we had to make a change. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The TV sits on the wall across from the couch, and the heat from it was interfering with the thermostat. It was a pain.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now that I think about it, most of the time when I make changes, I'm trying to solve a problem.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">So we moved it across the room. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And now we have this.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I painted the walls white and I made a few changes here and there.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Throwback...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The TV once sat inside this bookcase we used to have on this wall. I didn't like the bookcase and we finally put sheet rock over it. This was many years ago.</span><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: medium;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I remember back in the day when my home was gold and my furniture was burgandy, green, and navy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And everything was all oakified...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And my babies were still babies...</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">A lot has changed since those days. This cutie on the couch is now 16, and she's amazing. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Notice the screen, it blocks the view of the kids bathroom. Problem solved.</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The clock, the chair, the lamps, the screen, the coffee table, and even the bird cage, all came from a thrift store.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am a thrift store junkie.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am not ashamed.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I still want to make changes... paint the TV stand, change the shelving behind the love seat to something less busy and to declutter a bit.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love changing things up. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My husband and I also made photo ledges to go on the wall that the TV used to be on. In a future post, I'll show you how to make them.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">This is the walkway behind the couch.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The photo ledge makes a statement without taking up too much room.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> I want to take the time and <i>really</i> style it, but for now, this is what it looks like. </span><br />

</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Several years ago, I decided to paint my bed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhLBIpTwkS5PkfZI8s1vVdKPC89JxZmA0Q9KbYQU0V9JpvUcsh1fpVJ2-wtmivIA0vqtbwSM8kme2ZIoC75f-4n6-H6GFC0iLY8f6wl0fkOOLDNj6GS9vH8G7bcljtxVmgx5nvCNxixEGl/s1600/100_5893.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="457" data-original-width="640" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhLBIpTwkS5PkfZI8s1vVdKPC89JxZmA0Q9KbYQU0V9JpvUcsh1fpVJ2-wtmivIA0vqtbwSM8kme2ZIoC75f-4n6-H6GFC0iLY8f6wl0fkOOLDNj6GS9vH8G7bcljtxVmgx5nvCNxixEGl/s640/100_5893.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I was scared. This was <i>not </i>cheap furniture. It was gifted to us from my husband's parents. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What if I messed it up...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Will I have regrets?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I took a deep breath and made up a batch of homemade chalk paint.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">And I did it! I've never looked back.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well... until today.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I decided to paint my bed black. I really like the wrought iron black beds you see everywhere, but I really don't want a new bed. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I like <i>my</i> bed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I wanted the headboard to be nice and smooth, so I scraped and sanded and scraped and sanded some more, until I had this.</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love the chippy white paint with the wood showing through, and I almost went in that direction.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I get distracted easily.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But, I stayed on task and painted the bed black.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The color is called Black Magic. I picked up a gallon on clearance at Lowe's for $5.00. The brand is Olympic.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I love when the clearance paint happens to be a good color. It's a semi gloss. I primed first and then painted.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Notice we changed out the narrow side boards with these wider ones. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;">I found this rug on clearance at Walmart. It reminds me of Jute or burlap, and the price was great for a large rug. It actually feels good underfoot too.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Today I'm sharing my bedroom makeover.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And how many times have I said that...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Many times!</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>But</b> <b>this time</b></i><u>,</u> we ripped out the carpet and put down hardwood floors!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>First, let us look back and reminisce...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Just wow! Remember the red bathroom with the brown accents? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, here's the red bedspread. And the brown curtains. And the brown furniture.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And a futon at the end of the bed. I have no idea!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Clearly, I was trying.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;">Why didn't I stay with that?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">But I had the great idea to paint everything blue, and I painted all the furniture hardware silver and added pops of green. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Again, trying to lighten things up. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And trying to like color.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">As I type this, I realize how understanding my husband is. I won't mention the one day I painted the living room and put everything back before he got home from work, and he didn't notice until several weeks later. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We won't mention that.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I have a clean slate here. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So much left to do but I'm really excited!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you for stopping by and remind yourself that you're doing great! At least you haven't painted your bedroom 10 times only to come back to the color white.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Have a Blessed day!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">To kick off my first post, I thought I'd share some <i><b>really old</b></i> photos of our master bathroom. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We've just installed new floors, and I can't wait to show you!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> <i>But first</i> ...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I thought it would be fun to look back</span><span style="font-size: large;"> and see a few of the different paint colors and styles I've had over the years. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then there was the time I painted my entire house blue. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Every. single. room. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Funny thing is I don't even like the color blue that much. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">But I do like to paint.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I tell you this to help someone out there feel better about themselves. </span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sometimes I look back and wonder what was I thinking. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">All the trials and errors helped me find my style so I guess it's all good.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Here I was getting closer to finding the style that fits me best. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love white walls. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We lived with carpet in our bathroom for 23 years.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>23 years!</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Carpet in a bathroom is NOT a good idea.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Words can't express how happy I am to see it go! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Here's my youngest son pulling staples out of the floor.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We also had to remove particle board from the closets. Have you ever removed particle board? It reminds me of graham crackers, and it comes up in little pieces...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;">We contemplated getting rid of the tub because we hardly ever use it. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In the end we decided to keep it and take the bottom step off because that was my biggest complaint. It was difficult to step over to open the blinds.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We have separate vanities.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It's a wonderful thing for a marriage! </span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I plan to update the cabinets by painting, adding new hardware, and replace the faucets. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I'm glad we had this little bit of tile on the floor in front of our shower, so I had the chance to see if I liked it or not. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm not a fan.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Here's a sneak peek of our new floor. It's sheet vinyl. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We had this same floor in a different pattern put in our kitchen a few years ago. It's easy to keep clean, so I knew I wanted it in our bathroom as well.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love how pretty the afternoon sun reflects onto the new floor. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Cue <i>happy dance</i>.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The Lord knows how long I've wanted to get rid of the carpet, and I am beyond thankful for this new floor. I'm reminded how God cares even about the little things in our lives... </span></div>
