Before and after!

I decided, to use a bit of my blue/green/grey color also at the balkony and at the back of the house for consistensy...

A year ago, I also made one curtain for the livingroom, but never finished the second one...now I'm not satisfied with the curtain at all, so that has to be changed!

    Hi Sab! I love that white tablecloth and how you have accessorized it. It's like a dream! I also like how it's whiteness stands out against the dark floor! For the exterior work, the green stands out better against the light wall. As for the curtains, I love them, I think they're splendid but it's for you to follow your muse, as we always must do.

      Thank you for your opinion:) I love that table too, it is decorated with gifts from friends ( as most of the stuff I have in my house:) When I was decorating it 2 years ago, I thought it was full enough, but today I saw that er is lots more space...so I think I will rearrange it ;)

    Hello Sabia! What a difference a little bit of color makes to the mood of a scene! I really like the way the potting bench comes forward and becomes the focal point in the 'AFTER' photo. With regard to your drape dielmma;, I like the way that you have the trim on the seat cushion complimenting the wonderful upholstery fabric that you chose, which ties into the color of the fringe on the drapes. What about repeating that chair fabric as your new window curtains? The subtle contrast would showcase the lovely table as you've intended. I have often had to change my direction, mid-stream and so I entirely emphasize with your new way of seeing things, especially when you have left a project for a while and then come back to it. There is such a wonderful atmosphere in this house! It is so fresh and relaxing. I am certain that the solution will present itself when the time is right!

    Hi Elizabeth, the chair was a gift to me from my dear friend Sylvia! She made it for me, as many miniatures:) Like you say, I have changing my mind and direction and see things different now then a year ago. I totaly agree with your opinion that the solution will present itself....it always does:)))

    Ben zo blij dat je weer helemaal in de mini's zit ;-) Dat verhaal van het gordijn herken ik wel, vind je iets eerst mooi en een jaar later vraag je je af waarom! Ach, wat maakt het uit, zo blijven we lekker bezig ;-)

    I like the green potting bench too - it stands out better, I think.
