Changing Up The Living Room




I Thought that I would show you
my new sofa :)



Out with the old . . .




In with the new :)

Going from brown to navy 
made a big difference.
 
 



I also purchased these 
two ginger jars. 




And took the curtain
out of this window
added window film
to look like cut glass
and a shelf for plants.

It's so much fun to
change things up.

That's my post for today.
Have a lovely weekend
and 
God bless you all.

A Little Trick From Pinterest





Hi to all my lovely 

blogging friends!

I have to tell you 

how very much I enjoyed 

reading your comments in my last post.

  It confirmed my love of blogging 

and 

the wonderful comradery of blogging sisters.




Today I just want to share

a little DIY trick that 

I discovered on Pinterest.




My living room baseboard

was a skimpy 2 1/4 inch.




By adding a small trim

above it and then 

painting in between 

with the baseboard color

I turned it to a 7 inch

baseboard.

That brown board beside 

the paint brush 

was what I used to space it, 

instead of measuring all the time. 




If you do this on sheetrock 

it will turn out much better

than my painted paneling, 

because you wont have those

tell tale lines. 





Well, that's it 

short and sweet.

Tomorrow is my 81st 

Birthday . . .

and I bought myself 

a new sofa that will be

delivered Wednesday.





The Nazarene Church in 

our town is having a 

yard sale for their 

missionaries, so I called 

them and they came 

and picked up my old couch 😊

hopefully it will help.  




Well, you all know that

you'll be getting 

a picture of my

new one on my next pot.

Until then, have a lovely

week and I hope this 

little DIY trick will 

inspire at least one of you :)

I'm Back!

 


I've been away from Blog-land

for a while,

but now I'm back.


My life just doesn't seem

interesting enough to

bother you with reading 

my post.

My garden is a mess

flowers are blooming

but my veggies are

not doing well at all.





Finished



I did purchase these two

secondhand chairs

and redid them for my kitchen.




Like I said the garden is 

producing flowers but not veggies

 I found this sign at the Goodwill for $3.

Have a lovely weekend.
