Another Gallery Wall and Other Changes

Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend. I have painted and painted and painted some more. Looking so good though. All worth the hard work.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to order some botanical prints from ebay and then matted and framed them myself.  Here are a few pictures of more changes in the dining room.

I thought six would be the perfect number here. I have always admired a gallery wall of botanical prints and now I have one. All done on the cheap, too.

These prints were from five to seven dollars apiece. Then I went to Hobby Lobby and bought the frames for half price and the mats. I had to use two mats to fit the frame correctly.

This is another surprise change I made. While sprucing up the master bedroom I decided to take this bench out that sat at the foot of our bed. I was tired of Mr. Savvy complaining about bumping into it in the middle of the night. So out it came. I am loving it added in the dining room.

I had painted the legs white a while back and then distressed them. They were a bit bright so I  brushed some mocha glaze on them to tone them down a bit.

This pot was on top of my kitchen cabinets and I decided to use it in here and popped my tulips mixed with dried hydrangeas in it. I guess you noticed the yellow chairs are back in here, too.

With the bench being moved to here I also brought my buffet lamps in here with the matching fabric shades to the bench. The bench and lamp shades are from Ballard's.  I love this new look with these walls.

I purchased two of these little green artichoke vases at a local decor shop several months ago. Placed my brass bird next to one of them for now.

I have ordered another red flower to frame to replace the blue one I have up there. The blue

one doesn't fit the frame correctly so hopefully the new one will. Then I will have three yellow and three red flowers.

Hope you like the changes. I love them!

Have a glorious week!
