Sniff & Spiff

I moved into my house about 7 months-ish ago, and it seems like I will NEVER be done decorating, moving things around, organizing, forcing my boyfriend to move everything in the entire house into every possible position it can be placed, hanging things up, etc.

Last weekend, after getting Goose settled into her new home-
and introducing her to the big sis…


I decided that the walls in my dining room were just plain empty- so I decided to take some items I had laying around and try my hand at spiffin’ the place up a little.

The chosen areas to -spiff- were a small area between two doorways and an empty wall beside my table.

{forgive me for the lack of before pics- I’m new to this, remember?}

I’ll make it up to you- promise.

Moving on.

Here’s what I rounded up:
This shelf was purchased at a yard sale a few weeks back for $4 bucks!…I know, it’s nothing to write home about, but it works.

And these frames that I already owned..I just sprayed them white and inserted some light turquoise and white striped material with a halved place mat in the center and topped each with a doily! {Thanks to Nan!}

Again, nothing thrilling. Just goes to show that things can be fixed with a temporary remedy until the things you really can’t afford want can be purchased!

That’s it for today!

Later taters
