Little BEFore and AFter projects

You pretty much know by now we love Spanish Old World decor and colors.  I found these three new colors that Krylon has, and ironically they are the colors in my table runner.  I thought hmmmm...what can I do without over doing it? Because you know, I can OVER do it sometimes.  Well just a hint here and there, and I really like the outcome.

These little votives came from the Dollar tree...loves em!

As you can see I did this project some time ago..my kitchen has changed since.

And that is that, just a few more color splashes!

 Oh and I almost forgot to mention.  I won a giveaway.....My friend Tonya over at The Barnett family, made this for me...I just love it! She also sent me two very pretty vintage scarves she thought I would like to wear in my hair....I of course will show them to you when I have them in my hair! Thanks Tonya!

 Just another friendly reminder...this coming Wednesday is my Before and After party...so be there or be SQUARE!!~ And I will let you know you are square...I know where to find ya:)

Thanks for hosting these lovely linkie parties:)
I have been busy rearranging and adding some new bright colors for Spring and Summer into my Family Room.  Our Family room has been a bit of a challenge to decorate.  With 24ft. ceilings, it is not always easy to achieve a warm space.  We love Old World style and have spent the last four years antiquing and finding unique items to add to our home.  The Church window is 100 years old and came from a church in Upstate New York.  We found it in  an old restoration antique store in the Charlotte area.  It was the perfect addition to the space. My Mantel has also been a challenge.  The open space was suppose to be occupied by a TV.  We added a candelier  which we where given for our 10 year anniversary 5 years ago.....old mantel clock, paired up with some old books,  completed the Old World style as well.  On top of our entertainment center is a combination of Old and New.  The old wooden sign is from a local state park, that too we found at a local antique store,  in fact it was not for sale.....they did however, sell it to us for $60.00 and we could not be happier, as it points to our woods and reads Chester Lookout tower report woods Fire here......and has the arrow pointing the the woods.  Hope you Enjoy our Family room as much as we do.  The style may not be the norm for everyone...but then again, we are not the NORM, lol, so it is fitting for us!~

This is my post for Linking up with all these  lovely hosts listed below.  Thank you for having me.  I appreciate you taking the time to look and comment, they are much appreciated, and I will be sure to come and visit you:)
