My Pics are Here

I figured it out!!!! Here is the newest addition to my home. The door was $20.00 at a local antique store. Steve, my friend, brought home some old baseboard and casing from a home he was doing some remodeling in and built this cabinet around the door. The end result priceless. He kept asking if I was sure I wanted chipping paint. Uh hello.... ABSOLUTELY!!!!! Not sure I'm thrilled with the bright white, but I figure a little stain can fix that right up.








Ok a few more pics of my living room...

Like my peony in a pop can. LOL. Steve came home with it from his Mom's house. Oh and the mess to the left is my spring stuff I need to put away.



Like the bare spot on the right side of the black shelf... I decided to go sparse... LOL no I took something away and put it elsewhere and haven't found anything to replace yet. Hmmmm.... I know I have something somewhere.



I know you can't see very well, but most of those pics are samplers I picked up at the Ragon House warehouse sale a few weeks ago. You have no idea how much I didn't pay pay for them. They range from $7.00 to maybe $13.00 a piece. I was so excited.

    That door-turned-cabinet is fantastic, Mary! I love it! Everything is looking good there and it's so good to hear you sound so happy and upbeat!

    Thank you again, SO MUCH, for the Americana dress. Jason hasn't finished adding the pegs to my shelf, so I haven't hung it yet, but I'm going to show it anyway on my blog post!

    Hugs,
    Tammy
