Some decorating pics

So here's a glimpse of how I've been spending my non-work hours lately. this is the top of one of my kitchen cabinets.


And now the other set of cabinet tops.


Here is one wall in my den/living area.

And my breakfast nook--new table.

A new fake plant to hide some cords and plugs. I don't think I'll kill this plant. Silk tends to do well without light or water or my mom, sister, and niece's green thumbs. I did not get that green thumb gene. I think I'm finally accepting that and will just buy the silk stuff and turn from my life of plant killing.

Here is a bookcase in a little nook between the entryway and the cozy living area.


So far this is all I have in the formal living area. Need to go furniture shopping.

Here's the dining room part of the combination formal living room/dining room.

And here is the table in the entryway.

I'll try to post more pics later as I get different areas finished up.

You are so uncluttered, I couldn't find so much clear space if my life depended on it. Good going.
