Changes to my front room...

Well what do you know? 








I finally "finished" the living room!  Well, finished might not be quite the word for it as I already know that crown moulding is still needed and I think the wall color is going to be changed, the fireplace will be painted flat white plus window trim is still on the menu as is a set of white french doors for the opening of the room as well as the right area rug and maybe a small glass cocktail table too. BUT... now the room has items on the walls, is more coordinated and at least for me, is decorated! 

What makes this room extra special to me is that it holds a lot of love and memories. The couch was given to us by my brother and his wife (Thank you Sally & John!) and the fireplace was a gift to me from my sweet husband, Neil.  The wall decor, table and chairs, knick knacks, etc... are from my late parents' home. So you can imagine the comfort and feelings of love that surround me each time I go into this room! 
It's a sunny and bright room from which I can see out into the front yard and also look into one side of our backyard.  Can't wait to put a Christmas tree in here and watch the lights sparkle! I even have a small WHITE tree just waiting to be decorated!
Do you have a favorite item you see here?






 I think mine is .... well, I'll save that for my next post!
Always,
Jackie Lee
