Transform a Room’s Design With Vases

When we bought our new house we decided that our decorating schemes were going to be a little different than they were at our apartment.  Our living room consisted of mostly muted earth tones and while it was nice we decided that we wanted more color to liven up the place.

The previous owners painted all the rooms before we moved in, however the living room has to be my favorite.  The walls are a darker tan and the fire place is a rich chocolate color – all trimmed in white baseboards & crown molding.  While looking around at some decorating ideas I decided on shades of blue and brown (its the new black?).  Have you ever tried to find anything with any sort of color besides brown, yellow and orange in November and December?  Don’t… TRUST ME, because you won’t find what you are looking for.

Flip Our Flowerbed

This past weekend we poured half a day into fixing the front flower bed located in the front of our house.  Actually this started back on New Year’s Eve when we spent a large amount of the day pulling grass out of the flower bed.  Then of course we didn’t get all the grass, so we hit it with some Roundup – and figured we needed to till it up anyhow.

That is where I come in two weeks ago and till the whole thing up, and we spent the rest of the day pulling grass out and finally leaving it to haunt us.  Shala did get the bulbs planted along one side, but the other side was just sitting there yelling at us…

“HELP ME!”
