Breakfast Room

We haven't done anything to our kitchen since we moved in except replace the appliances and decorate. We still want to paint the walls and cabinets, get a new sink, replace counters, backsplash and flooring, and add crown molding. Maybe this year?



I love my succulents on the window sills

Complete Reading Room with bookcase










  • Sauder Select 5-Shelf Bookcase, Chalked Chestnut Finish from Walmart.
    Kohls has the same bookcase, but even after applying several coupons, Walmart was still cheaper.



    This year alone I've gotten rid of at least 6 large boxes of books! I still have a few piles of books throughout the house I need to go through. Lord, help me!


    The storage bin is from Wayfair.
    We keep the guest pillows and blankets neatly stored inside.



    Floral print chair is from Pier1





    Beautiful light all day



    Picture frames are from AtHome and candle stand is from Kirklands



    Mosaic floral night light from QVC
    I really enjoy this pretty night light. When I get up in the middle of the
    night or early morning it's the perfect amount of light.




    Hubby and me have been determined to eliminate clutter. It's amazing how much two people and three dogs can accumulate in 10 years. Hubby is definitely more of the type A neat freak. I'm more of a clutter bug who gets random bursts of energy. He has taught me a lot when it comes to getting rid of things.



    Rug is from Wayfair and the sofa bed is from Rooms To Go



    Lamp is from Kirklands and throw pillows are from Kohls



    Rustic wood wall art from Hobby Lobby Online



    Paint color: Behr Burnished Clay



    JUST FOR FUN:


    Hey, Winston!



    He loves the view!



    You'd think this was his room lol
    (Please excuse the napkin he was chewing.)

    Before & After : Office vs Reading Room


    BEFORE (2012):


    2012
    When we first moved in. My nephew Gavin checking out the view <3



    The first time we gave this room a makeover. Since then we have moved my desk to our Master bedroom. I love the view I have from from there.



    AFTER (2020):

    Kirklands for the win!



    I couldn't have found a better lamp. It brings the room together.


    I love the gold details
