Alittle update on me, our family & the sale

HI GUYS!

I wanted to rapidly write on hither because thus many of you receive got been next along wondering close how things are going, when my adjacent sale volition live on in addition to what is novel amongst our petty house!

Let me get-go start amongst proverb that similar always, I tend to remain 110% busy- amount speed ahead! Lately, it's been somewhat the opposite… After some personal things happened, unexpected bills & sicknesses, I've been laying depression existence a dwelling menage body. And it's been nice! I've been purging, going through things, getting inspired inwards novel ways in addition to simply getting some "me" time. Which was plainly much needed. I genuinely encourage all of you lot to set the cry downward for 10 minutes. Sit at your tabular array & consume a meal. Take a bubble bath. Leave the cry within & overstep OUTSIDE. Enjoy the sunshine. Go to bed early. Laugh at the chaos. You'll live on thus glad you did.

I'll start amongst the solar daytime nosotros moved in. The walls were a really pale xanthous amongst a hint of cream inwards them. It was fine but nosotros definitely were already thinking of going inwards a dissimilar direction. I wanted those cove ceilings to popular in addition to genuinely accent the beautiful hardwoods. All of our trim down & the ceilings included all seemed to either non been painted inwards years or were all painted an antique white. I'm a brilliant white trim down kinda gal thus I definitely had a long to-do listing ahead of me when nosotros moved.


I can't believe I fifty-fifty watermarked the epitome below but this was a calendar week or thus perchance into moving I believe? Everything was EVERYWHERE but hey, that's existent life.


All cleaned out below when I was headed inwards a dissimilar management for the front end room. Although it appears to live on narrow (which non proverb it isn't…) it is genuinely has a really broad opened upwardly flooring excogitation which makes it experience much larger than it genuinely is. 




Pre-board & batten higher upwardly in addition to and thus below you tin encounter our Christmas entryway. You tin encounter that weblog postal service yesteryear clicking here. That was a fun petty projection to practise but straightaway my encephalon has been wandering...


And here's your most recent shot below, today. This morning time to live on exact.



Off subject, expression at that cute petty cupboard! I receive got large plans for that sweetie pie. We've had our windows opened upwardly for awhile straightaway in addition to that's 1 of my favorite things is feeling the air current on a prissy solar daytime similar today. Beautiful outside, sunny… can't genuinely complain likewise much!



About a calendar week or thus ago, I took it upon myself to mensuration upwardly in addition to prioritize my projects. I'm definitely guilty of getting ahead of myself in addition to and thus I wonder how I air current upwardly amongst similar 100 projects that are non finished. I told myself I was going to hand the entire front end room a fresh coat of Oatlands Subtle Taupe yesteryear Valspar (My overstep to "greige", comparable to Revere Pewter yesteryear Benjamin Moore but non equally costly.) I also wanted to hand all baseboards a deep clean, complete the shoe molding simply about the entire space, hand all baseboards a duet coats of new, fresh brilliant white pigment equally good equally the window openings, door & fifty-fifty our adorable cove ceilings. So…what was I thinking?! Just kidding. Y'all, I got it all accomplished believe it or not. And these pictures attempt it! It definitely feels slap-up inwards this front end room, really low-cal in addition to airy in addition to comfortable. My goal for our dwelling menage has ever been comfort in addition to the feeling of existence welcomed. I don't help for fussy decor, brilliant & distracting colors or lots of clutter. I desire our dwelling menage to tell the story of us…and larn ours. I wanted it to live on our condom place, the identify everyone feels comfortable, the identify where folks are ever welcome in addition to friends are ever close. 

Sometimes I larn genuinely upset/frustrated because when I nation nosotros decorate in addition to practise our dwelling menage on a budget simply similar everyone else, I hateful that. Although I receive got zero against folks who tin guild from Pottery Barn, Ballard Designs or Restoration Hardware in addition to larn your room "accomplished" inwards a affair of days… nosotros don't genuinely receive got that luxury to live on able to fiscal pass at that caliber… although I would bask it for 1 solar daytime I'm certain ;-) I am constantly stalking Craigslist, I receive got definitely taken things correct out of the trash or off the curb & I've repurposed items or thrifted them for our dwelling menage to experience collected, unique but to hand us the expression I wanted…for hopefully a fraction of the cost.

I can't hold off to present you lot more. And my plans for the space. Now, close my adjacent sale. On trouble concern human relationship of  many personal things that were unforeseen this month, I won't live on having my sale inwards March. However, I AM planning to receive got 1 inwards April. We are currently working out the logistics of a location for this sale! Y'all volition live on the get-go to know when nosotros practise receive got that engagement in addition to I can't hold off to interact amongst all of you lot in addition to present you my unique, finds that are perfect for your unique home. Thank you lot for the support, it agency the world. Remember to follow on Instagram & Facebook if you desire some peeks into our daily life.
