Has anyone noticed that I have a new rug in my Living Room? Notice anything odd about it? Yes, it has a lot of blue, but that is not it . . .
This is a "FREE" hand me down from a friend, not what I would have
chosen, but I think it works. On the "back" side! Yes, I wanted it to be more muted so I am using it on the back side.
Here is a close up of the "front " side . . .
And here is the more muted, worn, almost needle point looking "back" side. Which do you like better? Don't be afraid to think outside the box. When you see something at a good price, or in this case a GREAT price . . . think before you pass it by, could it work used in a
different way?
Don't you just love a great "Before and After"? I love the New Look of this fireplace, the dark patina is perfect.
This is how it looked before, still pretty, just lacks the interest and richness that it now has. Lauren, at Simply LKJ http://simplylkj.blogspot.com/
This beautiful kitchen belongs to Susan at "Love Where YOU Live",http://thegreenplum.blogspot.com/ I just love painted cabinets and here it breaks up all the wood tones, so pretty.
The "Before", It doesn't even look like the same place! Way to go girls! 5 stars for each of you. Please go by and give them both a big hi-five.
