Hello World! Welcome Friends! It seems my days are spent painting and dreaming up the plan for the powder room. But, before we dive into the little update on that room, I want to show you two new lamps I purchased recently for the Family Room.
As you know the Family Room is in a state of change. I’m even thinking of replacing the couch in this picture, but I haven’t landed on what I really want for the space. If I do replace the couch, it will find a new home upstairs in the game room.

I love the detail on the post and how it looks next to the stairs. On my list to do is to freshen up the trim and moulding in the house with a fresh coat of paint.
The floor lamp is the perfect height and doesn’t compete with the stairs or the entertainment center. Plus it adds the additional light needed on this side of the room.
Pretty gold finial and white trim.
I was very pleased to see just a touch of silver on the base and in between the gold sections.
I love how it looks on top of the new table.
Now for the powder room update. I finished painting the walls Sherwin Williams Gray Screen and have started on the stencil.
When the stencil arrived I unrolled it and let it lay flat on the dining room table; much to the happiness of our cats. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve found one of our kitties sprawled out on top of the stencil.
Here are the paint colors being used for the stencil.
More shopping decisions need to be made. One of these tables will land in the Powder Room to hold the little storage solution I picked up at Hobby Lobby. I would love to hear which one you prefer.
And, the following chairs are to replace the gold chairs in the Family Room:
I would love your input on the chair and tables. I’m having a hard time deciding.

Your new lamps are very attractive! I love floor lamps — I have several of them in my home. They allow you to place lighting where needed (for reading) without taking up space on tabletop surfaces. Everything in your home is looking beautiful! I enjoy your posts and photos.

What lovely taste you have! I so appreciate your attention to detail. My fave table is the Cassian and the armchair is the Braxton. Can’t wait to see what you pick! By the way, I love the tagline on your blog.
Have a fabulous day!

Wow, you are busy, busy, busy with the new house. It is an adventure making it into the home you will love, isn’t it. Your lamps are very pretty, as are the upcoming plans. I know we are still working on this place and we have been here for two years and still tweaking things! Thanks for sharing at Celebrate Your Story!

I decided to have mini-one room challenges for myself to keep me focused. So far, it’s working. But, I’m really itching to change out the tile in the kitchen, breakfast nook, back hall etc. And, I want to rip out the backsplash and counter tops. But, I’m trying to hold off until after Christmas. We’ll see how that goes. LOL. I seem to have a bee in my bonnet. LOL. Thanks for stopping by.

Kathryn, as I looked at the various links on The Creative Circle party, saw the photo of your stairs and knew they belonged to you. Lamps! Who doesn’t love new lamps. I especially like your new table lamp. It’s gorgeous. Well done.
