~~~A MINI House Tour For You!!!~~~

Good morning! Every time I come down my stairs I think to myself, "I love seeing this view", so I decided YOU might like to see it too! Plus soon I will be redoing alot with FALL decor soon so I better share this now. This is a little picture heavy so grab a cup of something:)<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw3rOrvul1Hk5uoYxPgd-UP53vKZgpHYxHtyzjgVrTFjD-dzbdkQ4D62v2S-lfz1ismeJIM4xayVrPKJAQWqfWLMPPZM3ER7po8wpjTyHKUEktvVYqyyaodlwFcKmdCb2R6nH5oJB0BN3e/s1600/IMG_1457.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw3rOrvul1Hk5uoYxPgd-UP53vKZgpHYxHtyzjgVrTFjD-dzbdkQ4D62v2S-lfz1ismeJIM4xayVrPKJAQWqfWLMPPZM3ER7po8wpjTyHKUEktvVYqyyaodlwFcKmdCb2R6nH5oJB0BN3e/s640/IMG_1457.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> This is my living room/great room right off the kitchen. The kitchen is to the right. Joe made the wooden valances for me and I asked him to make them deep enough so that I could display some things. We don't have as much space to display things in this house.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsPEy38BmwTUVNXIEMZwxyvB0gY22Op5ZOFy4iMfx62Mnn9hQ-IRrSUAy_EGUGX-F0DbNjlkWkgwMBu7mH80L4ftG3qsyKPee4ZXYmhm0kFMP4Z52SfTFpaesCNa7yGxBvg5pXbPrzSJqv/s1600/IMG_1456.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsPEy38BmwTUVNXIEMZwxyvB0gY22Op5ZOFy4iMfx62Mnn9hQ-IRrSUAy_EGUGX-F0DbNjlkWkgwMBu7mH80L4ftG3qsyKPee4ZXYmhm0kFMP4Z52SfTFpaesCNa7yGxBvg5pXbPrzSJqv/s640/IMG_1456.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> As you enter the room the fireplace is on the left.

Another thng I inherited. These pieces are priceless to me. I saw them for so many years in my in-laws homes so now treasure each one. The lamp is one of my favorites and found it in a shop at the beach several years ago. The Buyers Choice Asian Lady is a special order gift from a dear friend, Barbara.

I hosted a luncheon for the ladies in my development today and made a couple of things to give as gifts. I made an all white arrangement for the woman who is the newest resident. I will show you that soon. I also made this Fall wreath for a woman whose birthday is today. This is the finished product on my front door, and I thought I would show you how I made it .I have several of these easels, that make wreath making SO much easier! I also have a small, tabletop one. I started with a plain grapevine wreath. PLEASE forgive the mess in the background. My worktable is in the basement storage area. I also CLEANED it all up AFTER I made this wreath:):)<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizwk9GykQR9idJ3RY_TG3e746VceJbUg9H6VlhNRtjQPTpy750uDbc00mrmU1F3c8oZuxbYiA32HzQuH9T8Glziiaupf_EfeYESwKUmmgVAlysYCNikd-LfFywIyijxNm8uCfx3sWjgRpE/s1600/IMG_1322.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizwk9GykQR9idJ3RY_TG3e746VceJbUg9H6VlhNRtjQPTpy750uDbc00mrmU1F3c8oZuxbYiA32HzQuH9T8Glziiaupf_EfeYESwKUmmgVAlysYCNikd-LfFywIyijxNm8uCfx3sWjgRpE/s640/IMG_1322.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> Then I always begin with a bow.
