The Great Room Reveal

March 14, 2019 By

Hello Dear Readers!

Well it’s about time!

I have been promising this Great Room Reveal and now it’s finally here.

The furniture arrived a while ago; however, there have been some issues with it.

 One of it being that the back cushions on the sofa were made incorrectly.

Also another issue is of the buttons aren’t quite right, so after a visit

from the furniture representative, three of the pieces will be replaced.

They have been very cooperative and understand that things should be perfect.

However, in the meantime just overlook some flaws and enjoy the room.

Spring Mantel

March 12, 2019 By

Hello Dear Readers!

I created a simple Spring Mantel here at the Berry Patch House.

I thought that I would keep the blue and white pieces on the mantel

and add one more piece that actually is part of a set of three.

I had only used two of those pieces previously on the mantel.

I actually created the Spring Mantel to prepare for the Great Room Reveal

that I have been promising. Stay tuned for that this coming Thursday!

I am dreaming of decorating my mantels at the new house hopefully by Fall.

Hello Dear Readers! Happy Monday!

It’s been awhile. Between my travels to Florida and Georgia and me being a tad

under the weather, there has not been much time for blogging lately.

I am feeling better and looking forward to revealing the Great Room and Sunroom

with all of the changes soon.

I also hope to bring you a photo of our totally cleared lot soon.

Due to all of the rain we have been having, the clearing  has taken more time than usual to complete.

Today, is the first Monday of the Month and that means it’s Monday Morning Blooms,

when I share some wonderful and fun floral inspiration

presented in the Citrus and Flowers post.

A Tournament of Champions and they won.

Now back home after being away for 6 days, I am trying to do some major catch up.

The Winter Great Room

January 30, 2019 By

Hello Dear Readers!

I hope you are not in the BRRRRR zone of the country. It is cold here and we may get some

snowflakes, but right now, it looks like only freezing rain is in the forecast.

In a couple of weeks the Great Room will undergo a huge change.

So I thought, I need to show you what is in the room now,  before the transition begins.

I have been reaching into my stash to bring out some winter ambience

with pillows and accessories. There are only two small items that I found at my . . . .

you guessed it . . . . my fav consignment shop (Always Home).
