I'll admit it..I'm bad about having pictures printed..truth be told, most of my pictures stay on my computer...but the other day, I finally had some of our family pictures printed from the beach and changed out some pictures around the house..I love how this one turned out on my sofa table..the colors look so pretty in that frame (which is my favorite frame by the way ..and it came from Walmart a while back..hee hee)...
I've also been wanting a coffee table badly..one reason is that I want something to put my feet up on when we are watching TV...I used to have one, but once the kids came along, we cleared it out to make a lot of open space in the living room...well, I have looked online and at a few stores with no luck..plus I am cheap..so all of a sudden yesterday, a lightbulb went off..I had this chest that used to be my Grandmother's when she was little up in my bonus room...hmmm? So, I dragged it down BY MYSELF while Brad and the kids were off on an errand..and I LOVE it..it does have some issues on the top, but I just put something over those spots...and you do know, I like my furniture "distressed" right? So keep that in mind...
However, last night, we ended up having a dance party some how, and the kids moved everything off of it and it became a stage..see why I like things already "distressed"...Kids!
We need new furniture, carpet, and we need to paint really badly..but we will be getting a new puppy soon, so that stuff can wait..well, we could paint, but maybe once the weather cools off, huh?
I love that hope chest!
Glad to hear I am not the only one who doesn't print pics - its so wrong! I usually print for scrap weekends - and then, what happens, you make the layout, and it goes in an album. I do have couple of those creative memories display frames - I need to switch those out.
Great family pic by the way - love that you are all coordinating outfits but not too matchy matchy!
Happy Sunday
