A new settee...

We picked this up for fifty dollars last week, of course it will get a new cover and new finish...it's pretty or will be.


 We picked this up for a couple hundred today... very pretty and goes well with the our other pieces. Nice creamy color in great shape. Looks lovely with the sofa. But will be putting it at the end of the guest bed. (away from kitties) :)


 I so need my own little shop.... lol ;)

Recovering the sofa sectional

Call me blessed, I have a wonderful Aunt who is recovering my sofa which I just love. It will be gorgeous when she is done.. I am so excited!











Hoping to add a pic of the original ~~ now what file is that in?

I had it covered so the dogs wouldnt be messing it up... Futile on my part.

 In honor of my Momma's birthday tomorrow-- last picture I have of her on this sofa - Four generations. Miss you Ma! Happy Birthday up there!

Ms Bekka...wow she is so little.. you should see her now!

Ms Emily, way too grown up now. How fast time goes!

As you can see, or not see so well, the color and pattern of the sofa in original form.
I am sure I have more pictures... when I find them I will add them.

More East Wing


 




I sure wouldnt win any drywall awards... but.. I will fix or not... wainscotting is goin in the landry anyway, so that bump will be hidden. We started here with the ceiling stamping so we could get a  handle on it, easy, but oh so messy! but then again Sonny handle the mud part, I stamped. It looks pretty cool and I don't feel bad that it isn't perfect. Hey it is DONE! I am happy with that.

Update on the east wing...

Slow it goes, but I see the end of the tunnel :)







Found this frog on the porch... I wasn't gonna touch it... poor frog...
Sad to say, but nothing was left but very fine, thin bones... those ants scarfed it down! I even put out DE powder, but the ants kept coming...gross!!
