The Make-over at Home

My favourite recliners in the family room.

That's Penny. The other side of the family room.

Note the empty light green wall - I'm looking for the right rose pic to fill that space.

The family room - light, bright and spacious. That's Sally and Penny in the foreground.

The shelf I put up over the heater in the family room - the "girls" bedroom too.

The other side of my huge bedroom

My Japanese Bedroom, see the new teddy on my bed in a Japanese Kimono !

My Sewing Room

The old bar is a dining room now.

The entrance and formal lounge

Slowly but surely, over the last couple of months, I have been doing a make-over at home and except for the arrival of the new Horn sewing cabinet and it's mate the Horn drawer cupboard and cutting table - my make-over is all complete. I've changed the dark green drapes and 2 x two-seater green floral couches to cream with throw quilts all over the place. It's now looking very shabby chic and I just love roses, so you can imagine how pretty it is. Not everyones taste I might add but I don't have an argument any more do I? I always win the arguments around here now.....

I've painted throughout (no I didn't, some friends helped me at a cost), I've re-arranged my bedroom Japanese style, the bar to a dining room and the dining room to a sewing room. The formal lounge is a formal lounge again and I've emptied one bedroom and made it an office / computer room. That room is not really tidy because I've dumped everything in there and have been cleaning up from there. The kitchen looks lovely with new curtains and there are new sun-screen security blinds in the dining area and the kitchen and kitchenette.

The sandstone floors have been re-sealed and I've run out of money. Life's a bitch when there's no more money but I'm happy with what I've done at home and it looks so much cleaner and brighter that it's hard to imagine that I had not even changed the furniture around over the past 14 years until now.

My home is looking gorgeous and I'm completely happy with my efforts.

Hope you liked the pics above.
