I've decided to redecorate

Yeah Tink, how's it going?

I had to decorate around dead animals. My Hubby has 3 deer, 2 elk, 1 red fox, and 1 turkey mounts on the den walls. We have a set of long horns on the wall and a huge cowhide on the floor. So, I've carried the "earthy" theme throughout the house. Almost every room is painted some tone of brown - tan/almond/gold.

Bedroom furniture matches in each individual room and the dining room finally matches, but the den and my sewing room are lovingly mismatched.

I'm still in a declutter mode, so I've made notes to things to pack away when I can walk again. I have too many pictures on my walls. I need to sort them out. Each of the kids has a wall in the dining room for pictures. I put one big picture of them in the middle and smaller ones surrounding that of them and their families. So the walls are almost full (halfway up). There's easily 100 framed pictures in there.

I've done collections of butterflies, lighthouses, thimbles, dolls, and plates. I sold the butterflies and thimbles. The lighthouses, plates and dolls are packed away.

Your decorating sounds very nice, Sandy, but I would hate to have to decorate around my husband's trophies especially since I don't have a family room. You're going to have to take some pictures when you're able to get it the way you want it.

Diana, do we ever get it the way we want it?

DianaB · 09-10-2008, 01:05 PM

No, not really. As soon as I get new furniture I start dreaming of what I would want the next piece to be. I love to decorate and am always picking up something more to add.

Tink,

What happened to the decorating? How about pictures of the new look in the bathroom?

Tink....don't you dare leave us for another....LOL...we love and need you here. I miss you!

Did you do any redecorating or have you just been too busy with everything going on?
