Our Home Tour: Family Room

The family Room is the only room in our house that I feel is somewhat "finished". I still have a few projects I want to do for it but they are small. So I figured its about time I show it off a bit! :)

One of my future projects: This lamp needs some lovin' and updating. We have

also discovered how NOT sturdy this little end table is...Lucy enjoys knocking it over :) So I need

to replace it soon....

I Love, love, LOVE these curtains from IKEA. $25 for a PAIR!!! Future project:

I want to add some stripes to these curtains

 Chad made me this curtain rod! I love windows and I didn't want to break up our view by hanging individual curtain rods 

over each window. But as you might expect, its not easy finding a curtain rod over 15 feet long! :)

We found this easy and cheap tutorial HERE, total cost under $20!

 This DIY ladder was another simple Chad project :) I stained it with a simple 

vinegar stain to help it look worn. 

Window as vintage Picture gallery. There are pictures of Chad and I as babies, 

his Mom and family, and Chads G.Ma as a baby. I need to get pictures of my parents 

when they were young to fill in the empty panes.

Its coming together! I still have a little more work to do and I will update as I finish!
