A change… March 19, 2009
Growing up mom would often re-arrange the living room, or rec room. If we wanted to move our bedroom around we did. Mom would let us redecorate our room every few years too! It was just normal, it wasn’t much and often didn’t cost anything (except for redecorating of course), but it was fresh, and different.
I get the ‘change’ bug sometimes too – the house we are in now, well either the living room is too small, or the furniture is too big – but rearranging it isn’t much of an option. The way it is set up really is the most practical way. But I still was wanting a change, something a little different.
So yesterday, I jumped in and changed everything around on the mantle – and it looks great!
We put up the mirror, and changed the photos in the frame (were wedding photos, now are pictures Phil took – the ones in it are all from our honeymoon in tofino) Added some flowers, put new candles in and just moved a few things. I’m very happy with it – it gives the whole room a different feel, and is quite relaxing.
Here are a few pictures – one from before and 3 from after!
Looks great! I always get stuck in a rut. Time to change a few things around myself.
