| The lantern is from Hobby Lobby and owl from Pier One. He is so sad looking. |
 |
| I added two fall pillows from Pottery Barn! Thanks Judy Bigg! |
 |
| Added a runner with some pumpkins and candles to the dinning room table . Still have more boxes to unpack. |
 |
| My husband got tired looking for my fall plates in the attic. Friday he came home with a new set of fall dishes from Pier One. Lol, he is not off the hook ! I still want him to find the ones in the attic! I told the movers to put all the boxes in the garage, he told them to take them all up! |
 |
| Hope you come back and see me again. I got to get back up in the attic! Have a great week!

| This was the beginning of what was to be our kitchen and keeping room. The walls were painted a Berkshire beige. The coffered ceiling trim was painted a bright white and the ceiling was painted a pewter. |
 |
| The room is ready for the flooring, book shelves, mantel and shutters are ready to be installed. |
 |
| I added a comfortable sectional that fit neatly into the corner of the keeping room. I also added a shag area rug to add texture and warmth. |
 |
| This is our breakfast table that sits at the end of our kitchen. |
 |
| Our cozy little corner is for watching television and reading. I drew out the tile work and added silver decorative tiles to layer for interest. |
 |
| This is looking in to the kitchen. The room is 16X40 including kitchen. The custom shaker style cabinets contrast to the dark wood flooring and island. I used a round table to balance the long rectangular room.  Both ends of the 17 foot island have good book storage. The island cabinet is a dark chocolate maple stain with white quartz countertop.  This rug was my inspiration for the colors used in my kitchen/keeping room. Thanks for coming!

| The painters were putting on the first coat of paint in December. This is called a double tray ceiling. It is fourteen feet high. The top of the ceiling is painted Charcoal. The rest of the ceiling and walls are painted Galveston Gray. |
 |
| I saw this chandelier on Hozz and loved it. The lighting store just happened to have it in the show room. This is from the Crystorama Mercer Collection. I learned how to buy the proper size of lighting for a room during this construction. I had to have a large 30 " wide chandelier with eight candelabras because of the dining room size and height of the ceiling. It is band with hand cut crystals. |
 |
| The floor is dark maple banded with light oak. I added a gray shag rug under the table. |
 |
| This is my new focal point. I just love these peacocks. My friend Judy (JBigg's Little Pieces) and I found these while out shopping the other day. |
 |
| Throughout the house, I have added turquoise as my accent color. |
 |

| This is my sewing room in the beginning. The walls had received their first coat of paint and the hardwood flooring and cabinets have not been installed. |
 |
| This is my new sewing room. I had new dark sewing cabinets made and the wall is painted Sea Pine. I wanted to add something special to the room. I created this wall hanging using my embroidery machine. After I completed the 12 patches, I banded them together and quilted. |
 |
| I added a batik cloth backing and trim to give it some pizazz. Hope you enjoyed my post and have a great week and I will linking to: http://betweennapsontheporch.net/ http://smilingsally.blogspot.com/ http://astrollthrulife.blogspot.com/ http://rubytuesdaytoo.blogspot.com/ |
