Bernadette

Decorating the inside of my home is the same as gardening or decorating our yard.  So, here are some pictures of our room we are calling, Bernadette.  Oliver doesn't like the name.  It will grow on him.  I'll help him understand.

We need a rug in here and we are just going to keep filling it with fun meaningful stuff!  It will keep changing.  Five minutes after I took this picture I put an oval mirror I got at an estate sale in the right hand corner.  

The desk is from a friend.  It fits perfectly in that space.

The room to the right is called, The Inspiration Room.

I'll put pictures later.

Its all a work in progress.  

List for this room:

-Figure out how to take those dumb wine racks out.

-Get bookshelf from antique store.

-Put my collection of mini chairs throughout the two rooms.

-Gertrude Stein wall will go in The Inspiration Room.

- Get Rug.

-Take out gate to The Inspiration Room.

Sneak Peek

I'm trying to get Oliver's special present finished before Christmas!  Here is a sneak peek:

An old, falling apart park bench.

Its perfect, because I don't have to make it super

nice.  It just needs a little sanding and some paint!

I borrowed an electric sander, that makes it go

a lot faster!

It was nice being in my yard.  I get a little

sidetracked when I'm out there and start doing

other things.  Kind of like birdwalks.  Oh well.

Sneak peak!  Oliver said he likes blue, so I got

a funky blue to go with our orange podium!  

I got some of the funky paint on the floor too, I 

kind of like it, it livens up our garage!

Hopefully, Oliver will rest on this bench!
