Wednesday, November 3, 2010

Check out my accessory project! I love looms. and I love soft blankets. Remember I said I'm thinking peacock feather colors? Well check out my newest blog...Looming with Love

A journey to Shabby Chic!

Take the journey with me as we transform our traditional drab living space in to the shabby chic...sharing inspirations, step by step re-dos, and of course snapping pictures along the way!

And don't miss the many links to blogs and pages that offer beautiful home decor items, seasonal ideas, gardening, cooking, crafts and more!

Check back often as these will be updated regularly! All to help create that very special serene and fresh environment.

Crisp white linens, old fashioned florals, distressed furniture, airy and interesting with a timeless flair. And don't forget the glam with some crystals and silver. I chose a blue palet. Never have I had blue. I love nature, greens, browns, but love color as well. So this is a big change for me. Lighter blue on the wall with navy, white and a mauve purple for accents. Think Peacock feathers! Nickel silver finishes will replace the brass and I'm hoping to find some neat crystal accessories. All on a frugal, eco-friendly and DIY budget.

Our home was built in 1986, an adorable little cape cod at the very end of a culdesac, lots of trees and over an acre lot. Our street is off a county road and out of town a bit. I fell in love with the front porch that runs the whole front of the house. And the dormer windows upstairs, kinda reminded me of a log cabin layout but with out the logs, especially with the house painted a medium brown. But get this, it has green shingles on the roof. ha! I am not sure what to paint the outside yet. That will come later. It also has an unfinished enclosed gazebo off the deck. Needs some tlc and so much potential.

Hope you find my blogs fun and interesting and I'd love to hear about your projects and ideas too! Blessing to all. R
