Changes


Not only has my blog changed, but I've been changing some things around the house!!! This is a before picture (obviously taken over Christmas) notice the table on the far right side - that's what has changed!!!


I pulled this governor winthrop desk up out of the downstairs den and I love the way it looks plus it provides some extra storage in our bedroom!!!! (Wow! the difference lighting makes in colors!!!)Next is a kitchen change! This is a before picture with the red window treatment over the sink.




This is after - I"m trying to get the red out of there, but I'm not quite sure what to do about that "wavy" piece at the bottom. This is the before on the bigger windows.





I swapped the red curtains out for the black ones from the playroom!!! (just ignore the 2 little boys that couldn't handle me taking pictures of something other than THEM!!!)

Next I found these great hooks from Hobby Lobby at half off and they work great for the bathroom that the children use each night!!!! (the picture is slanted, not the hooks!!!)




















Next is the playroom - notice the red curtains in here now!!!!

The black coffee table came from the downstairs den where I hope to put the new coffee table whenever I get around to refinishing it!!!! I think this table will be a good "art" table for the children!!!











No more toys in this room - it's the game/art/book/dress-up room!!!!



All the toys were moved downstairs to Wilson's room/closet!!! This makes it much easier to keeep them all organized and together!!!






I painted this small wall with chalkboard paint and I love how it turned out!!!

The black and white toy chest are full of boy/girl dress-up clothes!!!









Games - out of the reach of little hands!!!










books












Now for Wilson's room and the toys:
Superheros!!!!







This is a little alcove right off of Wilson's room, perfect for toy storage!!!








Back in Wilson's room - Rescue Heros!!!!









The next 3 pictures are Wilson's closet where the rest of the "boy" toys are kept. It's still a work in progress as far as organizing the shelves, but I think it will hold everything!!!! I'm just glad to have the "main" floor of my house TOY-FREE!!!!!

I'm heading in an hour or so to Mobile for the Southeast Sectionals Tennis Tournament!!! My team will play teams from 9 other southern states. Wish us luck!!!!
