These are the new wall letter decorations that I just put up today. I won a contest that DeAnn's friend, Julie held last year and the prize was lettering done on her new machine. Doesn't it look nice? Even dad said it did and that's a huge compliment.
This is also a good picture of the "mauve" window treatments that we are having alot of discussions about. I like the shades just fine but not the color. Dad thinks they're beautiful and sees no reason why we can't keep them and get new ones to match for the rest of the windows. What do you think? Comments and suggestions are more than welcome!!!
Our bedroom. I brought the valances, shears and bedspread from Brandon. I would love to put something a little more southwest in this room but for now, this works just fine. Dad even makes the bed most mornings but then the reason for that is because he gets up after I do.
My kitchen with Uncle Rich's birthday present sitting on the counter. I have fabric for curtains - just haven't made them yet. They're an ivory background with little terra cotta flowers. Not southwest but they'll serve the purpose til I find something else. Don't really need them for privacy, just to soften things up a bit.
My beautiful wall-hanging that Holly helped me pick out. NOBODY down here has anything like it and I get compliments on these bottles all the time. Everybody wants to know where I found them. They have some pretty colors in them - I love them. Thanks for helping me, Holly.
My worktable/dining table but since we end up eating out more than we should, it's really my desk. I'm in the middle of getting the newsletter ready before we head out on Thursday. Almost finished - just have to redo some things after the proof-reader finished today.
Dads new 32" tv - it's rather nice. Plans are to just take it back and forth between Arizona and South Dakota. Works great!!!
My favorite guy in the whole world relaxing in his new chair. Mine is the smaller one. The green one will go to the man cave soon. It just doesn't go with the rest of the decor but it's nice when we have company. I'd like to maybe get just a small rocker to go there. We'll see.Well, that's it. We are enjoying our new home, for the most part. Poor dad has spent the whole day trying to fix a water leak from the hot water heater and things have not gone well. A park model is nothing like a house - much more frustrating!!!
There's a morning dove cooing on our front awning. Almost time to start some dinner - hotdogs or rice with raisins???? which should I fix???? I left the decision up to dad.
Have a wonderful week!!!! Love to all of you.

I love your vinyl but hate the color of the blinds. I think you should get some that you like instead of getting more of that hideous color.
ReplyDeleteI also love that guy sitting in his new chair. Can't wait to see him (and you too) in just a couple more days!
