We are in our new Home!!!

Just checking in to let you lovely bloggers know that I haven't forgotten you.  Remember I promised to take you with me on my move.
Moving day was this past Thursday and we are finally in our new home!
I'm not ready to show you everything just yet cause right now it's a big mess of chaos and boxes!
I do want to show you a few pieces that I had reupholstered.
 
Before...
 
After...
 
Off with the green, yellow and pink plaid and on with the new basic linen in a creamy white.
 
 
Before...
 
 
After...
 
Off with the outdated pineapple fabric and in with this new neutral that reminds me of grainsack.
 
You can also see a hint of the hardwood floors that are dark stained and distressed.  Love them!!!
 
I'm currently in love with my new upholstery guy, Mark.  (sorry Mr. Sissie.)
 
Okay, it's back to unpacking boxes and trying to find stuff.  I'm lovin every minute of it.
I'll be showing you more soon.
 
~~hugs~~
Sissie

I'm thrilled for you, Sissie! I'm sure you and Mr. Sissie must be so happy to be in your new home. Love the changes you made to the chairs. Love the neutralness of the fabrics and the striped one does make me think of a grain sack!

Sissie, I´m so happy for you! I´ve learned a lot from you about "making all around us beautiful" even though living in a TEMPORARY home -which I and family are forced to for the next one and a half year!- so now I´m really glad you are finally enjoying your new home... Congrats!
