Christmas Tablesetting 2015

Only seven days left until Christmas, and I've only purchased one gift. So instead of dashing through the snow, I'll be dashing to the store. I figure I'll get all my shopping done this weekend. Then I am going to sit back and enjoy the Holiday. Ok now to the post. Since my Fall table was such a big hit with family and friends I decided I would use the table cover idea again.



I kept the table some what simple this year. And I also managed to incorporate the colors from the entry way into the dining room.


I used neutral fabric swatches for this table. And I think they look lovely next to all the shiny things on the table. I guess you can call this look laid-back luxe!

 
To incorporate the colors/ribbon from the entry way I simply wrapped two of the place settings with the same ribbon.
  Enjoy the rest of the pics!
 
 










I added Christmas ornaments to the chandelier to up the ante a bit. You like?


 

 
Have a Fabulous Friday!

Bar Stool Makeover

Hi all, this week I have another makeover. Last week's post was a chair makeover, this week it's bar stools. Here's a little history of how I acquired the bar stools. I have a friend named John who owns a thrift store. One day, while shopping in his store I purchased a beautiful 1920's sleigh bed. As I was leaving John informed me that he had a gift for me, since I purchased the bed. My response was, "for little ole me". As he scurried to the back of the store I WAS SO EXCITED and I couldn't wait to see what the gift was. When I saw the bar stools I was SPEECHLESS!!!!!! They were WICKED NASTY! But how could I resist them, they were a gift with purchase (free). And besides they had  great potential. I brought the stools home and got busy. First, they had to be disassembled. Next, I scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed, so much so I was dizzE (dizzy). lol! I was in such a state of shock, I forgot to take a picture of the seat cushions. Trust me, you don't …

This too shall pass

Hi everyone, 

It has been quite some time since my last post. Two years and four months to be exact, but who's counting. I am posting today to encourage/motivate you. Things are changing so rapidly in our society, and the coronavirus pandemic has most of us on edge. Some of us have never experienced anything of this magnitude, and the thought of illness, losing our jobs/everything we have worked for, and being isolated from family and friends can be quite scary, but be encouraged.



My prayer is that all will be well with you and yours. And that you will be intentional and live on purpose in the days and weeks ahead. Rest assured that this, too, shall pass!


Chat soon...
