Easter Jar

I purchased several glass vases and candlesticks at the dollar
store and put them together in different configurations
months ago.



I decided to make a lid for the tall jar.


Using these pieces. 
The round disk is used as a lip on the inside of the lid.






I have the feeling this will be a holiday decor staple.
Just think of all the possibilities!

Happy Tuesday Ya'll!

Dining Room Re-do



How much difference does a little color make?




Faded Clay is the color.
The dining room was the first room we
painted after we moved in.
We haven't made many changes in here since.






My goal is to one day replace the window with a pair of french doors to a garden room.
Hopes and dreams...something to wish for!







I think when I tire of this color we will put in a
wainscote and chair rail.
I'm kicking around the idea of purple
(eggplant) for the walls next! ;)
