Helping With A Move

Where have I been? 

We drove to Texas right after Christmas 

to help daughter Kim move into her new townhouse. 

We hung pictures, curtains, valances, plates,

 hooks, arranged furniture, shopped, 

unpacked boxes and organized. 

We were busy. Here's what we did.

 Here's where we started.

I brought a few things with me. A

large round plywood top, glass topper,

an old beige sheet and a square of brocade

 fabric. It's sitting on top of 2 storage

 bins and makes a little sitting area.

We found 4 long curtain panels on clearance

at BBB and we reused the wood closet

pole that we had painted black. 

I brought a Waterford lamp down

 from the bedroom

 and replaced it with 2 lamps I brought

 with me for the her bedside tabels

 Before adding the window treatment.

Fireplace and entry area before.

After we hung the painting.

This little spot is a good place for a

 basket to throw keys and a dog leash.

Then I found the perfect rug on sale 

while passing thru TJs looking for curtains.

The colors were perfect for her decor. 

This picture does not do it justice. 

It was 8x10 and on sale for $149!

 View from the entry area.

I'll show more in the next post.
See more moving in HERE.
See bedroom before and after HERE.

I've missed blogging but I'm back

 in the groove again. There'll 

be a lot of catching-up for me.

Cheers!
