Empty Frames and TV Room

So just in case you hadn't heard it was really cold here last week.....

Enough with the whining, already!!!

Since I got 2 days off from work I did do some fun stuff around the house.
Did I mention I had no water last week....

I love this mirror but it just wasn't doing it for me......

Last summer on the way to Iowa my sister and I stopped in 
Walnut, 
Walnut Iowa


ANTIQUE HEAVEN!


Such a cute town, brick streets, and an antique store on every corner!
And THE nicest people in the world!


In one store we found all these old frames......
after some negotiations.....


We got them all for $20!
Even included the round one, ya, all!!

They all needed a lot on tender loving care!
Not to mention the old, moldy smell.
Thank goodness Colorado is dry so over time the smell fades away.


So what do you think?

And while we are on the subject.....


This is the room before:

The bed I was selling on Craig List last year.
The room was a child's room and it had red tile all over the floor.....
red, cold, like patio tile....
warm....?


I changed it into my TV, dollhouse room.


My house is only 800 sq ft, ya gotta be creative!

Just laid laminate right over the tile!
Worked out just fine!

Jute rug on sale a Sundance!
Score!!!

Love that rug!!!
Little stool Mom picked up for me.

Slanted house means the doors don't always stay open.....


Cute little door stop!

I have a ton of stuff I could have painted....


no water, means, no painting,
Did I mention I went 5 days with 
NO WATER!?
