The simple things

-
Simple things make me happy, whether strolling along the park with hubby and puppies, or just relaxing at the beach. Even when decorating our home, simplicity is the main key. Sometimes, the small simple things make a house a home, you don't really need to have expensive furniture decorate your place. When decorating our home, we just worked with what we have and were pretty happy with the results. Here are some of the simple things in our little nest.

A happy home ::}} Laugh Often, Live Well, Love Much

hmm I need to dust often! =D

My parents got these vases for us from South Dakota, so we drove 24 hours to drive these back to Virginia Beach.O_o




Didn't think we would paint our wall chocolate brown, but we sure did! adding white chandeliers to bring out the color.





Hope you enjoy the little tour, to view more of the before and after pictures...please visit our nest

    You have such a gorgeous place! I used to be an HGTV addict (back when I had cable), but could never translate stuff I saw into real life. I'm amazed you were able to make the pink carpet work!

    I used to be HGTV addict also when we first bought the place..but now I hardly have time to watch it. Yeah we hate the burgundy carpet, but we just have to work around it.

Home is the one place in all this world where hearts are sure of each other. It is the place of confidence. It is the place where we tear off that mask of guarded and suspicious coldness which the world forces us to wear in self-defense, and where we pour out the unreserved communications of full and confiding hearts. It is the spot where expressions of tenderness gush out without any sensation of awkwardness and without any dread of ridicule. ~Frederick W. Robertson Our home is not big nor fancy but just cozy enough for our lil family. So grateful that we did not get affected by hurricane Sandy and prayers to anyone north of us that was affected. Happy Wednesday and Happy Halloween! Taking Kaylee trick or treating tonight!
