A Sneak Peak

My house is in shambles, total disarray. Every day we try and get something more done. This has been just like an actual move. There are a few things that we have put together and stuff that I am loving. Here is a sneak peak of a few of my favorites

This is a tile that my coworker made. She gave it to me as a Christmas present and it's the first thing you see when you walk in the door.
This isn't a very good picture but it shows the stand the tile is sitting on.
Here is a picture that I blew up to 12 x 18 of one of my favorite castles in Germany. I also have another picture of castle ruins that should be here by Saturday and a picture of a very old door that was across the courtyard from Reese's house in Germany. I'm going to hang them all together and will post a pic of them when they are all up.

This wall is an idea I got from another blog I visit. It's large magnetic boards from Ikea for photos. When the wall is complete we will have six boards up and I bought a huge sign to go over them that says "Home is Where Your Story Begins"

This is a collage that's going up in our bedroom. I'm in love with it. I think it turned out amazing!

Here is a sign that hangs above our bed.


Our bed...I love it!


There ya go. A few of my new favorite things. Once the house is actually finished, I'll take better photos.

  1. I love the tile! Did she just paint the words on there or stencil them? That is a great idea!

  3. Ok, this may begin to feel like a love fest, or stalking, but I'm going ahead with it.
    I, also, love the wall words and the whole idea of the display.
    Pam beat me to the thanks, but a lotta gratitude is better than a little. So...thanks for all the great comments.

  4. I'm feeling the love on this blog! You guys are awesome.

    Mel - I just went and asked her and she said they are stickers. Can you believe that? It really is awesome. She says she will show me how to make them sometime. I wonder if you could find instructions online.

  5. I love them all and the sign over your bed is AWESOME!!!

    Too bad it wasn't a bright blue sky behind the castle, huh?! THAT would be amazing... though, in my memory it was a sunny day. Maybe just partly sunny? Anyway, very cool.
