You don’t actually think there’s any molding there, but it kind of hints at the idea and adds a bit of a richness to a sad-looking wall none-the-less.. I’ve been up to my elbows in beadboard painting this weekend, but maybe next weekend I’m thinking I may add a few more squares of paint to some other walls.

a Christmas wreath but now it’s just so much better.Love the fresh green against the bronze..

I tied these little bundles up the staircase at regular intervals.The living room just beyond has the Christmas tree and all the bright, happy, family-friendly decor in it, so I decided to indulge myself in this hall and keep things more subdued in shades of white, bronze, and green.. Just one little bronze Christmas ball ornament is all it takes to reinforce the theme here..I found these sparkly little balls tied together in a garland leftover from last year so I just plunked them down in a cozy little nest of cedar in this footed bowl.. Glitter and twine – it’s works!

Who would’ve known?This just further proves that twine goes with everything.. And that’s the hall this year!

I bet you didn’t even notice how half-finished this room is.

Thanks for celebrating with me!Now this was a fun project!.This part of the house had been made wheelchair-accessible at one point so the toilet was on a little pedestal, which was  a pretty entertaining conversation starter if anyone ever happened to see it when we were showing them around.

But still, gross.Bad news.. …And this was the vanity area.

I really don’t miss the pink paint with the maroon wallpaper border, believe it or not!.OK. Now that that’s out of the way, on to the fun stuff!
