Moving is sooo much work. I don't know how long it will take me to get completely organized (ok, I probably never will). One of the most fun things about moving is decorating. I didn't want to post pix of my house until I got some things decorated. Decorating takes time and money... so it will come slowly.
This is the fabric that I chose for my living room, dining room and kitchen. I was looking for something with black and brown because my furniture is black and brown. I also really wanted something with turquoise. The other colors just happened. I love the purple and green... it's different than what I'm used to, but so fun. And I really am tired of red. It was on clearance, so that's a huge bonus!
Here is my dining room. It's probably the most used and most looked at room in my home...(I stare at it while I'm cooking.) I've had the dining table for several years. But I had to spray paint the chairs. That is one of my favorite parts.
I have always loved this look of mis-matched chairs from my favorite TV show Friends.
So I got to work painting my own chairs. One green, one turquoise and one purple. Technically I need one more chair, but I haven't found one at a yard sale yet. Plus, we only have 5 people in our family.
Most of the accessories on top are garage sale treasures. Of course, I spray painted the balls on the bird baths.
I think I pulled everything together nicely. I do need to make a table runner for the middle of my table and some sort of bowl with balls for the center as well. What do you think? A table runner out of my fabric, or doilies painted in the colors of my fabric? Also, do you think I need to hang anything on the walls?
