It feels like home to me.

This past weekend I painted!  Something I had been dreading doing since we moved in, as it felt like the paint had just dried in our Waco home and then we moved... but I finally bit the bullet and am so glad I did.... it only took me a few hours and I'm in love with the way it makes my house feel.

Up next on my to-do list since moving in was to figure out what to do with the living room wall.  It's large and connects to the kitchen/dining room and the sign that was hung there originally was just not big enough for the space.  See?

Sorta bland.  And sorta way too small.

Insert Pinterest. I know, it's all anyone talks about anymore. I kept seeing pictures of open, empty frames and thought it would be the perfect solution.  Cheap, and it would serve as a great space-filler... is that a word?  After a quick trip to Goodwill (spending $8 total) and some spray paint, my wall now looked like this:



I really liked it, but thought it needed something else, so I added our initial.  Then I painted it purple.  Because I felt like it.

So, what do you think?

Here's what I think.  I'm so happy this house is starting to feel like our home.  That makes me happy.
