Some of you know I have been whining and wailing cuz I want to change the whole inside of my house but have no money to do it. Tired of the flooring, tired of the worn out, outdated furniture and wish I could repaint, but there is no money to accomplish the gargantuan list of projects we keep making.
But when we put Christmas away this year and went through more boxes of things we have stored all over the place we did some weeding and some new visualizing and changed pictures around and decorated the mantle differently as well as put the Quijote collection on the bookcases in the entry. Feels good just to have made a change that would please even those home show house decorators. Carpet and couches are still old, but it is true that now the eye catches different things and we feel a sense of "refreshment." Lifts the spirits!
Oh, and by the way, your eyes do not deceive you. My husband has indeed arranged the books by color! Makes the librarian in me crazy!

I like it! Love the mantle!
i notice right off the bat the copper picture from Chile. It looks great there. sometimes cheap little changes help you think you have did major things when really you haven't.
