I Pulled The Rug Out From Under...So To Speak

As you know, 

a lot has been going on around here this week.  

Progress is being made on the Hardwoods 

in the Master 

and I am still in my Spring Cleaning Mode.  

This weekend we were moving things out 

of the Master so that they could start on the floors 

and also getting ready 

for Sweetheart pictures at our house.  

That means 12+ Kiddos at our house 

AND their parents!  

I was sprucing up the Dining Room 

with some flowers...

I bought these pretty Hydrangeas at Costco.  

I can't wait for mine to bloom this year!  

I am going to try to get some blues going... 

I have some stuff pinned on Pinterest 

so hopefully it will work.  

Anyway, I digress...  

Because we are all dreaming 

of Spring at this point aren't we?  

Oh, right, I was thinking...

that I would really like to move this rug out of the room.  

I wanted a change 

and what better time than when Mr. Beaux 

was in a moving mood.  

These pictures were from 

 when we had our home listed for sale last Spring.  

You can see that the rug matches the stair carpet.  

I needed a large rug 

and the prices were outrageous!  

It was a lot more cost effective 

to have a 9X12 rug made at the carpet store.  

I picked the matching border 

and they bound and backed it with felt.  

I Love the Stair Carpet 

but I was tiring of the rug 

under the dining table.  

I want something lighter.

Mr. Beaux and I started to move the table 

and he tweaked his back!  

Uh Oh!  

I called in Miss Beaux to the rescue 

and we got our furniture movers out 

and the two of us moved the table.  

Mr. Beaux protested the whole time 

but we didn't let him lift a finger.  

All I need is for him to be laid up on my sofa!  

I am really happy right now 

with these bare floors!  

Besides,

with all of the dust happening 

it is a good thing!  

 There are a few other things on my list 

for this Dining Room.  

First, I am looking for a new Chandelier.  

When we built the house 11 years ago 

I was living in California 

and the Mr. was working here.  

I would have to fly in 

and make all of the decisions 

on the house in a weekend.  

Not having any idea of sources in the area 

I was kinda stuck with what was offered.  

I am so over this bowl fixture!  

But at the time it worked.  

Second, I need to reupholster these chairs. 

I am tired of the pattern.

Mr. Beaux won't let me do it myself!  

I don't have enough time, 

blah, blah, blah, 

I hate it when he is right!  

 At least it is not a long list!  

As you can see, 

I am still practicing my photo skills 

trying to capture what is outside 

while still taking a good interior photo.  

How am I doing?  

Until Next Time,

Beaux R'eves
