SOFA TABLE HAPPINESS

One of the spots in my home that I have changed 
many times is the sofa table in our family room.
I never seemed to be satisfied with it and things like that
just keep bugging me especially when it's in an area
that I see all the time.
So you know what that means . . 
 . . . just keep playing with it until I get it right!

~ here it is today ~


I am pretty much an anti-clutter type of person so I usually
keep accessories somewhat to a minimum but for some 
reason I like a lot of "stuff" on this table.



I really love my chippy window frame and I think
it makes a great focal point here.
I paid about $22 for it at an antique mall.


This pitcher was a birthday gift many years ago.


Everything else I have picked up very inexpensively at
 Homegoods or various places.


 I think I will be happy with this for awhile.


Do you have an area that keeps bugging you?
We all have them, right?

I so appreciate all of your visits and comments
and I hope you are at least beginning to
have some lovely spring weather!

  1. Lovely table! What a great deal on window frame! I am like you, I don' t like too many things sitting around the home, as they call it "dust collectors". Ha!

    It looks very pretty! Like you, I do not like too much clutter, especially now that we are living in smaller quarters. My mantra now is, "One thing in, two things out." No, spring has not come yet in our neck of the woods. It is very slow this year!

  11. I love the chippy window frame! I try to limit the amount of things I have on tables too. I don't like to dust as it is. :)I like the little wreath too. Very pretty.

  12. I love your entire room. I don't know what antique mall you go to, but the one closest to me does not sell things cheap. The windows I saw last week were over $100. I would love to have one.

  15. That looks just perfect! I have issues with tables too. I like the look of lots of stuff - in other people's houses. Not mine! I have to add and take away.

  17. I am the same way but usually it's the entire room that I change! Right now my family room is bugging me so I'm moving stuff around. It drives my hubby crazy!

    Your sofa table looks very nice and I love the old window with the moss wreath inside.

  22. Yes I do! It will bug me until the lightbulb finally goes off and I think of what it is that will fix the problem. I love how you styled your sofa table. The blue and white pitcher is beautiful! I like the framed photos grouped together for more impact too. The light colors compliment the blue walls nicely.

    However, the spokesperson further clarified that the Galaxy S4 in the UK will be available with a 1.

    Year 2013 is essentially seen as the year that Smartphone

    their display will also be given a much needed boost in terms

The world of telephone communication have improved a lot in so many years that it has become difficult to choose the right kind of system.

    The apple tv is much cheaper now, at
    only $99, a far cry from what it used to sell for back in 2007 when it was more
    than $200. s time to prop up the bottom of the Apple

    file size, frame resolution, aspect ratio, volume, and so on.

    The Black - Berry Tablets media player will not disappoint you as
    this premier media player and video creation are supported
    by Codecs. That partnership included the expansion of Adobe products, primarily the
    Creative Suite and Flash, on Research In Motion devices.
    One of the first Black - Berry smartphones to feature Black - Berry
    OS 6, the Torch has been a breath of fresh air to the declining brand.

Blue Kitchen Cabinets 2017

I have done a couple posts on kitchens with blue cabinetry in the past, after all it is my favorite color. It has been awhile though, so today I have rounded up some more  amazing kitchens with cottage style that also incorporate blue in  the design. source The kitchen above and the one below have white upper cabinets and soft shades of blue on the lower ones. This is a nice way to use blue without going overboard or ending up with something that you would get tired of quickly. source source Finding the right shade of blue would be key and using a lot of white and wood tones along with it creates a beautiful and timeless look. source source Isn't the kitchen above just so very unique? It has sort of a french country feeling but in an updated way. Wish there was a better picture of the script that's on the wall  on the right. source This kitchen is from Remodelondo la Casa and I've always thought the w

Family Room Reveal

Hello Everyone! I've been meaning to post about our updated family room for a very long time and I'm  finally doing it - yeah!! I had been ready to replace our brown leather furniture for a while and when a new Ikea opened very close to us last summer, I jumped at the chance to take a good look at their slipcovered furniture. Originally the plan was to buy another sofa and loveseat like we had but when I  saw the Ektorp sectional on the showroom floor at Ikea, I was sold.   It just seemed so cozy and I could really envision it in our family room. As you can see, we purchased the sectional with the white slipcover. You just can't beat the prices at Ikea and the quality is definitely good enough for us. I'm at a point where I don't want to buy expensive furniture that I feel like I have to keep forever.   We even had the sofa delivered and they took away the old sofa and loveseat  for a very small fee. We purchased this dre

AFFORDABLE WALL DECOR

Hi Everyone, One of the things I find the most difficult about decorating is finding wall decor that I like and is also affordable. That is one of the main things that I am always on the hunt for and sometimes I have to come up with some creative ideas. Just yesterday, I found this beautiful image of a  white hydrangea at The Graphics Fairy . The Graphics Fairy I printed it out in a size that would fit in a frame that  I already had.  I think it looks so pretty in the simple white frame. I'm probably going to hang it in our bedroom. I'm making a few small changes in there and I will show you when it's completed. This star is actually from the garden section of our local Meijer store.  It was originally silver metal and I spray painted it white. I have seen a lot of people decorate with bread boards. This one fit perfectly in the narrow space between my  cabinet and window and I love the warmth of the wood.  I love th
