It was fun to come home and see things with new eyes. As Dad brought stuff in from the car, I was trying to get it all out of the living room and den so I could see what you've done -- a losing battle, I'll see more tomorrow. I realize that blue wing back chair (from CiBon days) is ugly and faded, and I do have too much on shelves (I also put some things up so you wouldn't have to worry about Emma). And, yes, there is definitely one chair too many. Maybe it should be the CiBon chair that goes! The Danish desk does not fit any wall as it is 36" and the walls it could go on are barely 35" -- that's why it's in the hall. This Spring I was planning to go through each room and simplify, so this gives me a head start. Thanks. Now, do I get to do your room when I visit? yES, it would have been too much to paint — because I like my color as is. It was fun to come home and see things with new eyes.

Now, do I get to do your room when I visit?

They still don't know about it, btw. Guess they don't read my blog while on vacation! ;) Hi Julia,

It's kind of tricky to arrange the furniture because there are openings on all sides. You did a great job! :-) My in-laws have a family room that looks almost identical to this one, except it’s a little smaller.

And here's the kicker, I just redid my 2nd graders room (last re-do was just 6 months ago). We were in the mood for modern French, and voila! I'll post that one next week. :) Hi Why,
