I tweaked some today, I didn't know if I should hang things in the entryway or not because now everything in the living room and dining room is pushed to the middle of the rooms plus everything is off the walls and Stush will be filling holes and sanding soon, but I just can't live this way without anything on the walls so I'll just have to clean and wipe off after everything is finally done!
Here is what I put up on the one wall that is left of the front door, the peg rack used to be above my drysink in the dining room now it's in the entryway and it's amazing how things look new in a different room:) The stocking strecher and tin lantern used to be in the keeping room and so was George but I moved him in here to go with the patriotic mirror. I don't know if it will stay this way but for now it's okay!
Now this is underneath the peg rack, I used to have a bench here and by taking it out and putting a chair instead it gave alot more room. I didn't think of it until I saw that Lisa had a chair in her entryway and I just loved the look so I thought I'd take a try at it. I did finally put some dark walnut stain on my stacking boxes and it made them alot more primmer:)
The sewing machine is in the middle of the keeping room floor and everything in the diningroom and living room is pushed from the walls all wine glasses and everything that would break is out of the cabinet. Anyway I moved the cabinet that you see there from above the table that I have my wooden bowls on to the entryway!
A better picture of them!

Here is the back of it, it's very nicely done.

Rondell, I think you did a great job with everything. I love the stacking boxes and the framed print where you have them now. I also liked the blue homespun on the cranberry rack. Very nice tweaking indeed. Good luck with your selling blog!

ReplyDeleteEverything looks nice and prim Rondell!....I especially love the peg rack arrangment, it's wonderful! Janet
ReplyDeleteWOW - You did alot of tweaking today and the chair in the entry way looks GREAT!! I put a couple of old books on mine along with Cindy's pillow that she made me. I tried to find some old wire rim glasses, but can't find any, but I thought that when I did that they would look cute setting on top of the old books. Your home looks GREAT!!
ReplyDeleteChair looks great there! I am living in dust as well and I know what you mean about nothing on the walls! My upstairs hall echos if you talk in it! Good luck with the sanding and painting!
ReplyDeleteRondell~Can I come and stay at your home for awhile?
ReplyDeleteIt looks so warm, cozy and welcoming!
I will bring my camera and take lots of photos for ideas to take home. I will help you paint and clean up to earn my keep!
Then we can scour your TS and buy some more treasures!
How does that sound to you?
Have a great weekend.
Everything looks fantastic to me!! I love your header too. Did you make that curtain. I know someone who would give her left arm for that curtain! I can't imagine your house any better, it just looks like home to me!!! Perfect!!
ReplyDeleteI love your entry way it looks great. I always see so many blue things in your house I love.

Hi Rondell,
ReplyDeleteLove the chair in your entry way. I wish we had an entry way, but when you enter the front door you step right into the living room.
Everything is looking primitively wonderful!!
hugs, Cindy
I'm in awe of yer house. So prim and pretty! I like the new listings in the selling blog, too!
ReplyDeleteI love that chair in the entryway too, Rondell! Everything looks wonderful! Tweaking just makes everything seem new.
ReplyDeleteI'm still thinking about your apple barrel beside your hoosier! lol! I really liked the way it looked there!
Keep up the tweaking...I love seeing the pictures!

You'll feel like you're living in a whole new house by the time you're done! Everything looks great~ you've got such a great eye for placing your prims.
ReplyDeleteI wish you lived closer so you could come help me change things around.
Hugs to you~ Birgit
Hi Rondell, You have such a lovely home. I love seeing all the pictures and you give me such great ideas for my own home. I have a suggestion for your glass closet doors. Chicken wire! My sister-in-law has a cupboard with glass on the doors and when she tacked chicken wire on the inside of the doors, they instantly became prim. She uses chicken wire on her glass kitchen cabinet doors too. Chicken wire: the instant primmer upper! :)
