In the mood

Now that I have a new piece of furniture sitting pretty in my living room, I think it would be fair to say I've become a little obsessive about redecorating. I was in front of the computer shopping when my SIL came last Wednesday morning to drop off the sofa (and the grandsons), and I was at it again the minute they went down for a nap. When they woke up, I was my usual attentive Grammo-self until my daughter came to pick them up, but I was warming up the debit card before they were out of the driveway.

I thought I'd give you a few hints about the changes that are going to take place by showing you a mood board I put together. Some of the items are things I already had. Some are already ordered, and some are on my wish list and will be ordered as soon as I sell a few things on Craigslist.




I plan a clock wall behind my sofa, a rug that's a real departure from my usual taste in floor coverings, several new pillows, and some major rearranging of art, ceramics and glass pieces throughout the house..

Yesterday I finished redecorating my bedroom while waiting for living room items to come in. I have big plans for the grandsons' playroom and, at long last, my kitchen. I'll be sharing those projects with you soon.

    1. Although most of my furniture is vintage, the last chair is a concession to sheer comfort. It's an Ekornes, and sitting in it is pure heaven.

  5. *SOUNDS very exciting* Changing things around and re-decorating always makes things feel new and fresh. I like your idea of the clock wall.
