It's a rather funny story...you do remember what my family room and living room looked like before right???
Here's a reminder...
Well Dimitri calls me at work in the middle of the day and says, "You didn't like that old black leather furniture did you?"
I said, "No, why?!"
He says, "Good...you have to go get new stuf because the furniture from the house is gone."
I found out he wanted to use it at the new showroom and it worked out perfectly for me since I disliked the black leather bachelor pad furniture with a passion :)
Well...the wall color has NOT changed yet ---BUT the furniture and some things have...
(notice the lampshade? I painted it)
And check out the new tables...
Don't you just LOVE them???
Pretty snazzy huh?
But WAIT...THERE'S MORE...
You didn't expect me to go shopping and stick to my original shopping list did you?
...nah...
I had a budget and although I went a little above what I was orginally told we could spend...I made out like a BANDIT!
Remember the old family room? The old couch that had been handed down and was basically broken at the bottom???
Look what I scored for 50 bucks :)
Makes my family room almost complete...It's soo comfy. makes me want to snuggle up with a good book and sip a hot tea on rainy day
(All I need is a new lamp---but that will come with time and heheheh more $$$)
Like the ottoman? $5 at a thrift store. Along with the rattan chair $1 at a thrift store. You just can't go wrong with that. I love shopping around. What is one's man trash is another woman's treasure :)
Next up...painting...need some motivational words. Although not a big task...I can always find a reason to put it off.
