A Quick Look

I've been meaning to post pictures of our new house, but I've been so busy I just haven't gotten around to it. I'm just going to share a few rooms downstairs though. I'm still working on the rooms, so they're not complete, but for now they'll do. :)

Our Family Room:

This is the first room you walk into. When we moved we only had the couch set and t.v, so we bought the t.v stand, which I'm in love with right now. It didn't exactly match though so I made curtains to make it match a little better (you can go to this link on my project's blog if you want to know how to make them). I'm going to make a few throw pillows to match also and I still have a few things in mind for the room. If I ever do get around to doing it, I'll post updated pictures later.

The Dining Room:

This room is really bare right now. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do with it. I keep changing my mind. I'd love to have a country French look, for now we just have our shear curtains up, but I actually want to trade them for a different color. I'm still trying to convince Jed to let me do cream with pink or yellow accents. You can probably see why he doesn't those colors. lol


Our library:

The downstair's rooms are a little on the small side and we have big furniture. We were hoping to have this room as our t.v room, but it just wouldn't fit with our couch. We all love to read and I've always wanted a library in our house, so we decided to turn this room into the library. Elijah loves the idea of it. He even started taking all of his books from his room to fill up the bookshelf. I also made the wall art for this room (here's the link for it) It's a nice and comfy place to snuggle up with a good book. Plus, since whenever I start a book I get completely obsessed with it, so this is a good place for me to be able to keep an eye on the kids while they run around and play. This also leads to the backyard so I can keep an eye on them as they play outside.

So that's the quick look at our downstairs. :)
