Giving The Living Room A bit Of Autumn Flair

 It's that time of the year.

The days are cooling down

&

thoughts of Autumn fill our

create minds. 

My decorating juices started flowing

after stopping at Ross' and purchasing 

these two burnt orange throw pillows.

I think they look great

on my new navy sofa

and they match well

with the sunflower

quilt I made last year.

Next I went out to 

the shop and got down

my plastic storage box

of autumn decor

and started tweaking 

the living room. 

This beautiful blue glass

pumpkin was a birthday present

from a dear sweet friend. 

 

I like to remind myself

of this . . .

Jesus went to that cross

to save me and to wash away

my sin . . . I didn't deserve it,

but He loved me enough

to do it. 

Have a lovely weekend.

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 :)

"God Bless You"
