I'm not here to say "this room is fabulous" or "look at this!" or anything like that... actually, it is more like: our home
thrift store finds... beloved pictures of my grandparents by their working horses when they were young... birds an old friend gave me... peacock feathers... and canvas tarps on my couches
I could write a whole series of posts on how to stop copying other people's decorating and embrace what you have...
the round table currently has a number of library books strewn on it's round top...
pillows are missing on the couches... ideas of black and white feather pictures and more Native American art is in the works... our office is filled with that sort of thing...
truthfully... Jason has quite the eye for style (he wouldn't admit this of course) but I like his rugged influence on our home... I like to call it "rugged classic style"... or how about "farm style"
:)
horse drawing by our oldest daughter... pictures of my grandparents when in their youth... bird from my old friend Cathy... camera collection of Jason's and a bowl full of found arrowheads and old pottery we find
it's a simplistic version of the museum room...
a photograph I took while visiting here a few years ago
— i love black and white —
but there it is... our living room... also known currently as "soooo cozy" via our kids who take turns on the new 'daybed' (really just the twin bed that was in the sunroom that got moved out without the frame)
what's that you say? an empty front room now?? oh yes... empty except for the sounds of the piano and an old hutch... needless to say, plans for in there are sure to come... but first, I think I'll bake some pie:)
