"SIMPLICITY"

A few changes ...
You know how it feels when your space needs an update ...

This time I don't think I got it right...

The wall with the "C" needs more...
I think it needs alot more,
more frames or something...

What do you think???

The sun was shining in this day...

I have a weak spot for white linen...
I think I need more of that too...
What do you think???

See what I mean, the wall still seems a little bare...
I'm needing a new/old dining room set too...
Sometimes we are just never satisfied...
And I'm o.k  with this one, needing a new dining room set that is...

I now have a white linen tablecloth on the table, liking that look a bit more...
For those of you that want to pull some white into your space, try a tablecloth, curtains, some white frames & mirrors and viola...
Oh & a candle or 2...
or 3 or 4 ...
The more the merrier...

 Mercury glass ...
Needing more to add to my collection especially for "CHRISTMAS" OOOOOO can't wait...

"Give us this day"
Love this saying for a sign

Our daily bread...

The sun peaking in again through the front door side lights...
We are very Blessed to have such a lovely bright home...
Morning sun all day in the front & evening sun in the back...
Can't go wrong with that...

This is a neat shot...
Looks like 2 pics but just the 1...

"Simply White"
I'm hooked...

I can see it now, in 5-6 weeks or so...

New Beginnings...

                                                               

Please do not laugh...
What a long long week it has been...
But something amazing is happening , the shop is 99% ready to be opened...
Thanks to all my great friends & my very special aunts Shelley & Debbie who have helped me...
Talk about being  "OVERWHELMED"...

So hard to believe how far this place has come...

I was unsure of the wallpaper at first which was left behind from the former tenant...
However I decided to leave it up as it works well with the décor...

Putting up the window decals...
Shabby Chic...
Vintage...
Cottage Style...

A little sneak peak, of the Shabby Chic room...

Please stop in for a visit ...
Opening Oct 9th...

Happy Thanksgiving

~ The View ~

For some" STRANGE" reason when I finished this post the pics were not in the proper order...
Anyway...
Hello to you all !!!
 The fall breeze is moving in and it's beautiful here on our lovely Island...
Not to mention all the beautifulness in this post...
For those of you who maybe just visiting this is my "Bestestfriends" home...
She has such a natural gift to make her home well lived in & always a special cosiness you feel from the moment you walk in her front door...
Enjoy your visit...

I
LOVE
LOVE LOVE
this white shabby chic cabinet...
It is the "BOMB"
Meaning the best of the best...

O.K
 This is one of my favourite pics of her whole house...
So So So
"CHIC"
That pink Shabby cupboard is to "DIE" for...
It's gotta be mine if she ever gets tired of it...
Wishful thinking I know...

Be Still
&
know that I am God...
Love that verse...

This was suppose to be the last pic of this post, to introduce her amazing table...
Say no more...
 I'm speechless...
Love
Love
&
Love
This pic
Maybe this is my favourite...

Oh the view !!!
She knows how to use just the perfect amount of elements & textures to make her space
 a WOW factor...

~Peaceful~
easy
~Feeling~

An old salvaged door totally makes this little corner...
Objects that are
Scraped
Beaten
&
Chipped
are always "BEST"...
That's my pointer for the day...

A little news
 I found my new location for my shop...
Praise God
I was getting a little worried...
I have a little bit of the doubting Thomas in me sometimes...
 Guess I'm finished know...

Blessings for a lovely week to you all...

As Promised!!!

My mouth just dropped when I walked in this room,
with the beautiful on suite bathroom ...

She (Leona) has already made several changes to her space,
she's got it bad...
Loving this mirror...

Simply beautiful, not to mention her view
a little peak of the river ...

1st
 piece
She bought at "Timeworn Treasures & Antiques"
The perfect Shabby Chic Architectural piece above the tub...
Oh how I wanted to keep  that piece...

My Favourite!!!

As always the perfect amount of pillows...

Chippyness
at it's best...

The buffet will not be there much longer, she is trying to convince her husband to buy her a french armoire...
Next time I visit it will be there I'm sure if it... 

Next post
The view...
To die for...

May we all be "Blessed" on this day that the Lord has made...

A Shabby Sleep

Well it's late, but I'm really excited about doing this post...
It's my "BESTEST FRIENDS" new home...
My aunt & I went for a visit on the weekend, we had a blast...
Thanks Leona , oh and you to Roger!!!
For a lovely visit...

Best part of the visit this" BED"...
Shabby Chic at it's best...
Waking up in the morning was a chore trying to get this bed made perfect!!!
I did my best...

Her collection of bedding is just overwhelming...
Wish we had a pic of the inside of the closet... 

Loving the vintage frames she chose to put around the room, what a beautiful touch...
And the ghost shade looks so simple, I think I need one too...

Letting a bit of the sunshine in...

Chippy ~
 Shabby ~
 Vintage ~
 Some of my favourite words...
That's how I describe this space...

Little bo bo, don't know why that frame on the table is down...
Oh well...

And a sneak peak of the next post...
Master Bedroom...

Wow that's all I have to say...
Blessings Lori ~

P.S  I think my new space for the shop maybe found, please keep praying ...
