Craig's List Finds {that got away}

Give me a can of paint and some fabric, I go wild.

I pictured these in black.

This would've been freshened up in a tropical print.

White, possibly distressed. with a quirky, unexpected paper backing.

Seller stated mahogany, I saw a fresh green bright lacquer.

Paint and new hardware and welcome to my foyer.

But alas....too far for pick-up or sold too quickly.  I'm still on the lookout!

Craigslist Part One ~ Meet our Living Room

Welcome to our Living Room. I like it...it was dubbed the "holiday & girls only room" (I'm the only girl). My inspiration was to do a botanical green and orange room, originally inspired by the Ballard fabric on the corner table. Note the pottery barn knock-off cube tables from Overstock, less than half the price of PB.
The accent wall was painted by me when I was 7 mos. pregnant...poor decision, I have now learned I hate accent walls. This room will receive a coat of new paint and carpet eventually, but for now I can deal...

Yes, we are proud of our heritage!

Brennan's toys are slowly transitioning to the playroom as he gets older. I am thinking by Spring it will be complete.

Then there is this corner. Nothing, Zilch, Nada....currently used as a "garage" for Brennan's various modes of transportation. The lion's name is Mushy....we love him ;-)

This is where my Craig's List purchase comes in...I will reveal later today the find I found (and some inspiration photos) and may need some advice on PAINT...cause' I am kinda torn.

Happy Monday, Happy President's Day everyone!
