Keeping Busy

We're going on two months of passing the crud back and forth. Is there such a thing as a "sick bug" bomb? You know, like a fogger thingy that'll kill it all for good? I wish! Every time I get stuck in the house I get the other bug... the "decorating bug." Here are a couple of things I've been working on.

The trim around the front window is now white, instead of cream

 I scored some new white swiss dot, ruffle curtains! Simply Shabby Chic from Target. They were originally $30 per panel, I got them for $13 per panel. The art on the wall and pillows are still another thing I've been working at. You can also see a glimpse of something else I've been working on...

...My friend Lori came by one day and helped me paint the entry way blue! It looks wonderful in the morning but in the evening it's a bit Florida blue. I'm not sure if I'll keep it this color but for now it adds a punch of color to my mostly beige living room. Oh yeah, I also painted the front door white.

 
As you can see there's a lot going on around the Miltgen living room. The next couple of projects I plan on tackling... ripping up the carpet and painting all of the trim white... stay tuned!
