End of the tour

And we end at the laundry room, another room I never showed before. Beside the sink is the door to the garage. One reason I have not showed this room before is the dirty laundry (yes one hamper is full) and the ironing I need to do--it is only hems Amy (I told her I do not iron--and I don't, it lays on the dryer). Even when the laundry is clean this room is still usually messy.

The other reason I never shared this room is because it was not decorated. Well, I took some of that junk that I took out of the dining room and used some of my favorites here that I still liked even if is was clutter.

I have had the blue shelf for years and have been meaning to put it in E's room. I decided to use it here with that favorite junk. See, I like my sunflowers. You probably can't see but the old country heart shelf that I just can't get rid of has a jar of buttons and a pail of clothespins on it and my laundry sign hanging from it.

And now for the confession time. I just wanted to share how crazy I am. Some people already know I am crazy--mostly for having a blog and putting pictures of my house on it (my mom thinks it is crazy for one). But just in case you don't think that is crazy, or the fact that I move furniture as a hobby, let me show you these.


This picture I took of the bed and shutters is driving me nuts. any idea why?? Because the bed is off center from the shutters, that is why. The bed and the pillows do not line up perfectly with the crack between the shutters. It HAS to line up. I did not see it until I was putting the pictures on the computer. So tomorrow I have to move the bed. And make sure the pillows are centered. I will probably get a tape measure to check the bed. Seriously.



And so you know what this is? I bought this table--which I totally should have taken a good picture of because I got it last week from the junk store for 5 dollars--it is all wood, already red and has little stars painted on the top. I may have to show that soon. Anyway, because this is the first thing you see from the doorway--being directly across from the entry and in front of the windows, I had to hide the cords. I hate cords. I took a twist tie for the top and a rubber band on the bottom.

I am insane. At least I know it. Right??? Does that make it okay??

Anyway I decorate for me. No one else comes over and the kids don't care. I love it all. I hope you enjoyed getting to be nosy and looking around!!

I sooo almost bought that quilt set at WalMart. Looooove it! I got one that is almost just like it, just darker colors, more red and green and black. I think I'll go back and get the one like yours for the camper.
