Guest Blogging and Refreshing a Room
Hey my friends!
Today I’m guest blogging over at Valarie’s, Glimpse of My World,
where I share a yummy recipe.
Go check out her blog, you’ll love her ideas and her RV is fabulous 🙂 I want one!
Thank you so much, Valarie for allowing me to be your guest!
Well, if you’ve been around awhile, you may know I like to change things around.
I like to call it “refreshing” a room. Mr. Buckets of Burlap calls it ADD.
In our den, or family room, I’ve added a few new flea market treasures.
The chippy door and the ladder add a vintage wooden texture
to the white walls.
Well, you know I love burlap.
These are some coffee bean and potato sacks stacked in a wire basket.
I hung a few grain sacks and special baby blankets on the rustic ladder.
This is the wall behind the slipcovered sofa.
I found an old crate cut in half at the Canton flea market.
To add height, I turned it upside down.
I like the layers it provides.
I moved this long buffet table from the dining room into our den.
I am getting ready for a new cabinet arriving later in the summer 🙂
You know I like that pop of color from fresh flowers.
And this is another small wall in the den.
I used a garland of driftwood to hang hats from.
These hats were my mom’s. She wore them during her battle with cancer.
I have reminders of my sweet mom all around the house.
Have you been refreshing any rooms lately?
I love visiting all your blogs! Such inspiration 🙂

So pretty. Amazing to see all the different colors of white. Awesome textures.
Love your mother's hats and the way you display them. What a nice reminder of keeping her with you and sharing stories when someone asks about them. Blessings back to you.

Lovely! All the textures are incredible. I just adore your home.
Love it all! And don't worry my husband thinks I'm A.D.D too. He is out of town right now and when he gets home he won't recognize the place. 🙂

Your house always looks so pretty, Becky. I could just look and look at all of the wonderful things you have scattered throughout. I love how you've used your mom's hats too. They're the perfect addition to all of your vignettes.

Love the door and the window too! "Refreshing" is a nice term for ADD. I'll have to share that one! How do you get your jute bags to loose their smell – i have some coffee bags, but they are so overpowering…smelly!
Your room refreshing looks great! I LOVE your door & the cut down create – what a great idea & find!!

So so beautiful! I just love your soothing color(less) schemes. The driftwood garland is the coolest with those hats! What a sweet memory maker you've created.

Hey Becky! What a beautifully unique and interesting living room you've created! I adore the softness with the rustic-ness! And all the white with gray is so pretty! 🙂

I love all the beautiful touches and textures in your home, including the sentimental pieces. I am continuing to work on our living room and have been painting a few pieces of furniture. I'm really looking forward to finishing work/school for the summer in three weeks so I can get some rearranging and diy projects done.
Becky your room looks beautiful…it must be nice to enjoy some quiet time there!
My favorite touch ~ your Mom's hat hung along the garland ~ so sweet!
I love everything! The colors, the texture, just beautiful! Just became a follower.
