Dining Rom Wall

LOVE MY WALL!  One down, 1 wall to go!  Here's my chicken coop and tin/pallet frame art.

It's all coming together...finally.

Another great weekend of antiquing

I finally found my chicken nest for the dining room wall!  Not only that, Phil and I found this really cool metal orb at the Green Bean in Alpharetta last weekend and he made our new breakfast area chandelier today. He's so handy.  Here are the pics!
Orb to chandelier - LOVE IT!






















Chicken nest - I'll be cleaning this up tomorrow and will take pics when it's up on the wall.

Tobacco basket with Flowers

And I finally finished my tin/pallet wood project for the dining room.  It's all coming together.  These will go on either side of the chicken nest above.

oh, and here's the milk jug with flowers from Joann Fabrics as well as the metal milk crates that we hung in the guest bathroom.

This weekend's great finds

What a gorgeous weekend!  Phil and I took another trip up to NC to our favorite salvage shop where he found these awesome new garage lights and I got a steal on this tobacco basket and 2 smaller fabric spools (not shown) for more candlesticks!  I'll add those pictures later.



I also picked up this cool wall decor piece at the local Green Bean and I purchased the clock mechanics at Michaels today.  Wala - a new kitchen clock!  Easy Peasy

A Salute to Graduation!


Home Decor

**Before I get started, these are also listed in the "great antique/auction finds" page.  Don't forget to check those pages out, I do make updates to them occasionally!

So these items are also show grouped together in my new decorations post below, but I wanted to show them up close.  Love the coziness these bring to our home.  It feels so much more inviting.

 
another take on the box spring/candle idea.  I like how the clear crystal doesn't take away from the "look".

Old fabric spools - love it!


This will be the centerpiece of our new farmhouse table which is currently being built.  Check out my Pinterest page for my plans for this chicken feeder.






$20 Milk Jug find on Craigslist - SWEET!



Our new Garage!

Well, I couldn't have all the fun updating the house.  Phil got a little manliness as well.  I really think this is going to be the "man cave" versus and actual garage now.  Parking in the garage?  Pfft! lol

THANK YOU to Garage Solutions Atlanta for our Monkey Bar System and to Randy Ray and crew for the excellent paint job both in the garage and interior!!




The space between the tool cart and the frig is left open for a storage cabinet we haven't purchased yet.
