When I met him...it had an abstract canvas painting of this...

When it came time to decorate for Christmas I found myself living at my mom's with no house to decorate. Josh was generous enough to let me take over his home. I asked if I could take the painting down just for Christmas. He hesitated...but agreed.9 months later, the window frame remains and has even made a permanent home. You can see slight touches of fall as I slowly begin to makeover the mantle. Piece by piece. Here is stage 1:
stage 2 involves bringing over my lovely bird vase! I'd been eyeing it at hallmark for about 3 months. I was ready to finally buy it and someone beat me to it. Luckily I've got an in there and they ordered me another one. Happy Birthday Emily! Love, mom!
Stage 3 will hopefully involve some pretty candlesticks...stay tuned.
