I have bit of a problem when it comes to lighting.

I have bit of a problem when it comes to lighting. 😬
But let’s be honest…can you ever have too many lamps??
I got this glass and brass lamp last week and gave it a small makeover today. Swipe to the last slide to see the before. Also check my stories to see what I did…if you’re interested. 😁

Well, my painted concrete patio made it through 2 summers and 1 winter…and still looks great, in my opinion! I love how it subtly changed the concrete and made it look more like slate.
If you flip though to the last photo you can see what it looked like before. 😳
I finally have a blog post up with the all the details! ⬇️ www.unexpectedelegance.com/create-a-slate-patio-with-paint/

We had some friends over this weekend and they loved our living room ottomans…so I thought I would share them!🌿
It’s four smaller ones put together, and I don’t only like the look but also the versatility of them. The best part…they are inexpensive, come in different fabrics, and at Target?!? 🙌🏻

My hall is done (for now)!! If you saw my stories

My hall is done (for now)!! If you saw my stories a few days ago, then you know I added small moulding to “bulk” up what I already had.💪🏻
I’ve had the supplies since the beginning of the year and kept putting off this project. Do you do that…put off something you want to change?!?
I’m so glad I finally took the time to do it. It makes me happy every time I walk up the stairs.💕

Afternoon light shining in… It’s been a while

Afternoon light shining in…
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything about my house. I made a change to our entryway a few weeks ago and I’m so happy with the new wall treatment! It’s not quite finished but close enough. 😅
This summer was busy with travel and family time, but the girls start back to school tomorrow…which means a new kind of busy.
I’ve also been dealing with shingles. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I have it for the second time in two months. 🤞🏻 I get my health figured out soon and can focus on some fun house things!
Happy Tuesday, friends! 😘

I rearranged this space to have the lounge sofa right off the kitchen doors. It not only looks better, but our pups want to sit out there all the time now! 😆
I got the Loseta Grey rug in a 9x12 and it really grounds the seating area.
It's fade, mold, and mildew resistant, so I don't have to worry about staining...and the best part is that it's machine washable!! 😮

I don’t have a One Room Challenge to reveal but I DO have the next best thing!
Here is the living room in Falcon Lodge @timberpointeoutdoorcenter …
You can swipe to see the before. I’ll also share a link in my stories for anyone interested in the entire space. 😘

A lot has changed in a year! The first picture is

A lot has changed in a year! The first picture is of our garden this time last year. We were new to gardening and had set it up a littler later than we should have…
Fast forward to this year (second picture). We’ve learned so much in a year and our garden is big and thriving.
Everything in life takes time. At first things might be difficult. You might not have all the answers, but if you show up and “water” things that matter to you, you will see the fruit eventually! ❤️

The last cabin at @timberpointeoutdoorcenter is finally ready to share!
(There’s actually SO much that I’m doing it in 2 parts.😅)
Here’s some of what I shared today on the blog. You can swipe through to see the BEFORE. 😬
Let me know what you think and if you would want to stay here! 🤷‍♀️
(I’ve heard from of a few of you that your planning a trip here soon!)
