Industrial Metal Chairs

I’m not usually one to jump on the “trend band wagon” but I’ve seen these chairs floating around blog land and I have to admit…. I’M OBSESSED! My kitchen REALLY needs a little makeover…. especially my table and chairs. I might need to create a chair savings ;)

I’m in LOVE! They are stylish and would hold up well against my two crazy boys.

Love the white chairs with that blue table!

The rustic version

One random yellow chair… kinda like it!

Wouldn’t these chairs look awesome with Miss Mustard Seed’s farm house table …. oh I think so. I need to make one of these tables very very soon ;)

Fresh Paint & Spooky Decor

I finished painted my living room and I LOVE IT! I really wanted my living room to have a much lighter and fresh feel and that’s what I got. It’s not even close to being finished. The walls are still bare and my furniture needs to be rearranged but I just have to share!

This is what my living room looked like when we first moved in. The walls and the ceiling were the same tan color.

Here is the new color. Its Valspar Anti Meridian aka Heaven ;) You can see the old tan on my other walls….. I’m not completely done yet lol

My furniture is going to be totally flipped around to open up the space. I am going to make some curtains and pillows as soon as I’m done painting. That beauty of a wingback in the corner was my first reupholster job ever. I love the blue and orange together!
Here is my gallery wall with the tan paint.
Here is the wall with the blueish/green paint and some spookified halloween friends. What do you think about the Halloween stuff? My husband thought I was leaving it like this for good lol I got the black cheese cloth stuff, the skeleton head, and black birds at the dollar store.

I picked up these cute skeleton’s from the dollars store.

It’s all coming together….. slowly. I can’t wait to show you the final room!

2011 SLC Parade of Homes – Laundry Room and Mud Area

Welcome to the Mud Room! You walk into the mud room from the garage. To the right you have your laundry room and to your left you have the half bath. I finished my first stencil job in the half bath and I feel very accomplished! A stenciled wall might appear in my home soon!

I LOVE the simplicity of the mud area. The storage unit is from IKEA and I like that it’s not your typical bench or shelving units. It brightens up the space and gives it a clean, organized look.

I made the message board out of an old window and chicken wire. The reminder notes are attached to the chicken wire with clothes pins. If I had a mud room in my house I might have four of these ;)

The awesome Wash, Dry, Fold sign is an old door that I bought from Sausha. She refinished it and added the cute stencil. She was a BIG lifesaver. I was in a time crunch towards the end and had a hard time finding a few things I needed that were within budget. Sausha happened to have the furniture pieces I needed and the amazing laundry room sign that filled that big wall perfectly! She does amazing work so make sure you check out her !


Do you recognize any of the decor accessories? I used some of my own things to fill in a few gaps. I can’t wait to find a nestled spot for my awesome goodies when the parade is over. Do I hear a little home rearrangement calling my name? Possibly ;) shhhh it wont be anything too big so don’t tell the husband lol

2011 SLC Parade of Homes – Living Room and Kitchen

This is a really awesome table; it’s expandable! We borrowed this table from Sausha from   for the parade. If you are interested in purchasing it check out her website/contact info.

I found those old french doors on KSL. I cleaned them up and added some yellow and cream paint streaks and a glazed a few areas. They were the perfect fix for that HUGE wall!

They have an AMAZING kitchen. The stove, double ovens, and that awesome refrigerator that is made to blend with the cabinets would make anyone want to cook all day!

I found these over sized chairs at TjMaxx. They are lovely and one of the most comfortable chairs I’ve ever sat it!

We found that awesome yellow table through Sausha. She hadn’t started on it yet so we got to pick the color. At first I felt like it was a little too big but it grew on me and I LOVE it now!

Instead of using the classic curtain rod to hang the window treatments I went with a wrought iron piece that has three hooks on it. I draped two slots from the curtain panel over each hook and voila! They obviously aren’t functional but I love the unique style they bring to the room.

 

Tomorrow will wrap up the tour of House #9 from the 2011 SLC Parade of Homes. I’ll be showing you the Laundry Room and Mud Area. I hope you’ve enjoyed the tour!

I’m linking up with these parties:
