As you see above I keep moving things around and changing things up to see what I might like. This drives my hubby bonkers. (Yes, I had a day with time!) I tried changing curtains, and table- cloths and the size of the table (with and without the leaf). Below is how it is at this moment
But I did have it some of the ways below:
So Have I driven you all nuts too/???? Do you all do this?
So in conclusion the end result is:
Will my hubby pull his hair out when he gets home? Maybe! I like just the white curtains, I also like the blue and white.....hmmm,
Tooo many pictures , you say??? YUP I agree!!!
Do it seasonly, Kim. Use the blue and white for certain months and the white for others. Maybe the white in summer? I like where you're going. But you're right in that most men don't get it.

Love the patterned curtains is it Waverly? Love it!I have a toss pillow with a similar pattern in my guest room.I agree with Mrs. Magpie Men dont get it!Your cabinets look so fresh.Must be fun to have a clean slate.
ReplyDeleteI like the end results you have now and what a perfect place to sit at the end of the day.
ReplyDeleteI know what you are going through, I do it too. When hubby is gone out of town he never knows what to expect when he comes back. He forgets sometimes in the middle of the night and bumps his toe.
Your new condo cottage is a delight.I love the whole look and the colors.When we first down sized, it was to our "Condo Cottage."Now we downsized even more so I named it "My Hobbit Home"(APART.).Yes, Mr. Coffeeberry is a Hobbit.Our next down size will be to full time RVing.My only question is:What shall I call it?My husband thought it would be better to go from "Big Dream Home" to full time RVing in iddy-biddy steps.I'm sorry I think I'm repeating myself-IKES!
ReplyDeleteNo, it wasn't too many pictures. I like the wicker chairs in front of the window with the blue and the white curtains all there. I also like the extra plates on each side of the window and I like the larger picture on the wall. I know for me, I like to keep my table small until we are expecting company. But maybe you are able to have company more than once every three months. I would love it if we did! It just gives us more room for daily living. My hubby goes crazy if I move things around too much. It is so against the way that he is, his way is just TOO boring, though! Have fun until it is exactly like you want it!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy
you will have lots of choices of how to move it around. (o: I do like the one with no table cloth and the big bowl and the big picture with trees and yellow. That is a great look too. that took lots of energy to do all that moving. My family room needs moving...want to help?
ReplyDeleteI like it. I think I'm almost ready for a condo myself! But hubby and son would disagree. I like the idea of smaller spaces with less stuff.
ReplyDeleteWell for me be driven nuts, it's not a far drive...sooo NO you did not. I love to do the same. I change out per season, and you may like to do the same.
ReplyDeleteWow, that made me tired! You have lots more energy than I!
ReplyDeleteMr. G. wouldn't even notice if I would put the chairs on the table, lol !
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I love changements too !
Men aren't crazy about change. I actually like both ways. Why not swap them out as the seasons change. Have a great day. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeletei like your new cottage and the patterned curtain too...thanks for your lovely comment. Can't wait to go skiing again :-) Hug
ReplyDeleteI really like the blue and white curtains. I too like to change things up one in a while. I see some baskets in the kitchen in one of your pictures, they look like Longaberger. I have several and love them! I like the way your room looks in the last picture. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI move furniture around all the time too, Kim. The only ones that have not changed here are the real heavy ones that I cannot move. Love your arrangement!...Christine
ReplyDeleteI love the brightness of the rooms Kim!
ReplyDeleteThe blue with white is classic...looks great!

Hi, I had fun reading a few other posts along with this one, which showed the changes even more dramatically. It was lovely before and even nicer now. I used to rearrange more in the past but stay so busy babysitting grandchildren and writing, I rarely do it now. It's fun for change though, isn't it. :) Have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteWow.. what a great place. My favorite is the one with the sitting area in front of the window. I'm all for adding in blue to any design.. hope it didn't drive hubby to far over the top. lol hugs ~lynne~
ReplyDeleteLooks like y'all are all settled in now! I like how you've tried it out all kinds of ways. When we first moved here I did more moving around of things too. I think it looks great!
ReplyDeleteYou are just having to much fun! I love your blue and white curtains with the lace and your wicker table for two is perfect by the window. Your dinning room looks great! It's so fun to "nest" and change things around until we think it perfect. But if you are like me, I love to change things around from time to time.
ReplyDeleteHave a sweet day, hugs~Elizabeth
I forgot you were closing Spindle Cottage blog..and I needed to add myself as a follower on Nannykim/and New Condo Living..I just added me...

Have a wonderful day, Elizabeth
