Just wanted to share more of the joy that we call our home. (I know...I could make a collage or slideshow - but, that takes more time. So, we're doing it the non-creative old fashion way. In case you couldn't tell - I don't even take the time to edit pictures - pathetic really. But, it's either that or nothing at all.)
We have a real dishwasher! OK - so just ignore the fact that it was installed crooked. But, it's exciting to be able to start the dishwasher and not have to worry about when I need to turn the water off, it's quiet and under the counter - thus, taking up the least amount of room as possible.
This charming cherub clock was found on the wall in our bedroom. Ya...it's true - I don't see the hour hand either. But, it does chime every hour - so, you really do have a good idea about what time it is. Our first night here, Layne took it off the wall and turned off the lovely hourly tune it played. The next day, Rachel pulled off the second hand. Needless to say - we said a fond farewell.
Check out the 'shiny' wallpaper. This picture does not give the wall the glaring praise it deserves. Each room in this house (main/up) has shiny wallpaper (different in each room) and LONG, thin drapes. (Most of it just seems like a large piece of lace.) There's also wallpaper that runs the length of the hall and into the front room - with a different style of wallpaper on the adjacent wall. How's that for style? Can you say, 'This room needs an update?'
This has to be one of the favorites! Is this not THE most romantic decorating you could picture for a 'master bedroom'? Try going to sleep under this every night.:} By the way - what color is the carpet anyway? Is there a name for that? (I know it's hard to tell with just a tiny corner of it showing - but, I think you'd have a tough time coming up with a name even if you could see the whole floor.)
