Did y’all think she fired us???  Nope, just a crazy summer for everyone BUT but this project is finally coming together and I am so excited because Hyacinth loves the room.

Remember we started here:

Below is a more recent “in progress” photo. Imagine without the rug and with more fabric and color!

Ree snuck in a took a few pictures in June in case you didn’t see on her little blog post;;  photos by the Pioneer Woman herself! Look a little closer at Hyacinth’s new facade!

More to come soon I assure you…I will tell you this, one major thing is staying, obviously we changed the fireplace wall, wood over the brick and mirror behind the shelves…there will be some fabric entering the space soon (you know i am happy about that) and some other changes…so stay tuned..just wanted to let you know the Design Team has not been fired!;;

The image above (from Just a Girl) illustrates the layering of frames, simply leaned and lanterns..boy the lanterns are getting popular…this is for you Melanie!

and i just love the white mat..simple but fresh.

hmm, I think I like white mantles..and white mats!
