Changes Around the House

It's been awhile since anyone has really seen what I have been up to around my house. Mostly because I have been so busy with other projects. I still have a bit to go...loving the white but it's a bit too stark and I need pops of something or another to ground it just a tad.

 The little candelabras once belonged to the woman that started my life long obsession with white and crystals.

I found the ironstone tureen at a garage sale for $5. Woohoo!

 Still trying to find the right rug for in here. Right now it's just a piece of scrap carpet. And I am hoping to change out the chandelier in the dining room soon.

The pillows came out of the shop for now. I made them using old grain sacks I picked up while out at a sale a few weekends ago.

 I'd love to sand the floors down, but probably won't since in all likelihood we will have to move by June of next year 

{yep, that's right, she finally gave us a time frame on when we will have to leave the house that has inspired it all *sad face*}

 I am pretty much in love with the dresser turned buffet that I found curbside back in May.

 All of the curtains are courtesy of old sheets. Ya'll know me! I am cheap!!

 Debating on keeping the mantle...not sure that I like it??

 Sofa table....also rescued from the curb.

 The only thing I spent much money on in the make over were the chairs at the dining table from Restoration Hardware. I loooove them and need to get more!!

So this is where I am at currently....still more to do...it's a process!
