Im Baaaaaaaaaaaack!

Hi everyone, I know ive been away for awhile, ive been having computer difficulties along with a few personal ones....just wanted to let everyone know im excited to be back to blogging. Ive missed everyone so much. Ive missed my computer so much. How did we ever survive without them before? lol. My niece has recently come to live with us. We are quite excited to have her here. Trying to get my son's old room fixed up for a girl has posed quite the challenges. As budget has permitted weve been doing quite a bit along and along. Which we will be sharing soon...........Also in the middle of reno-ing the desk area. Its time the "blogspot" got a make-over, lol...Hope everyone is doing well and had a great Thanksgiving! So ile leave u with a few pics of the finally finished dropcloth slipcovers and the new pillows to go with, i will post more dining room pics this week......Bye for now......Bonnie

Enjoy! See u soon.

This post is simply out of pure excitement. Im soon to do my first dropcloth slipcovers........Ive picked up my "ballardlist" coventry storage benches. I love them, all except the fabric of course. Ive wanted banquet seating in the dining room for some time now, its just a really good solution for any small dining room. Most of u know my dining room to look like this.....

Please ignore the mess in the corner........

Some changes are about ready to take place though. Im just sorry i couldnt get some of these things done before the blog party.....I work outside the home, which can leave very little time for projects to get finished. Anyway just wanted to show u the benches..........

To those of u who may be wondering, we will be re-moving the mantel on the back wall and re-locating it to another space so that the bench can hug the wall as it should. So there ya have it ,our solution to better seating in a small dining space, however as murphy's law would have it,  all solutions generally create new dilemas, LOL..

Now the drapes are too long, go figure.................Here's to drop cloths, be back soon with more pics.
