FINISHED!

I. AM. FINISHED.

That statement should have probably been made with exclamation points. This morning I finished my "clean the living room" project which was started on Monday.

I really had thought that it would take me 2, maybe 3, days.

Nope.

A full 5 days. That is just sad!

So here are the results. I tried to keep the order the same as the original post with the ugly pictures:


looking in from the kitchen door
 
looking in from the hallway door

front of room

back of room

upclose of back bookcase

upclose of front bookcase

I managed to pack away lots of books; move some furniture out (I needed more space!); and reorganize the shelves.

I cleaned out enough that I was able to turn the center shelf in the back bookcase into a 'Rosary Shelf'.


no, I do not plan to light the candle while on the shelf!


It now holds our Mary statues, Rosary beads, books about the Rosary, as well as the basket of roses for toddler praying (an idea I swiped from Kimberlee, an extremely talented lady).

I am pretty darn happy with the results - now to convince the children it needs to stay pretty close to this.

Ah, a new project!

  1. What a beautiful room! We have a Rosary table top- I have my husbands' Grannys Blessed Virgin statue, which I just love. Thank you for popping to say hi during Yarn Along, and I am so glad it has given me the opportunity to visit you! Blessings X

A New Start?

A test of sorts.....  I think I'm going to try something old-new.  It has been too many years since my last post. The world's differ...
