Livin' Green

For whatever reason this year I wasn't feelin' the love. I decorated the house for Valentine's Day on January 15th and the night of Valentines they were coming down because I was over it. The next day I busted out the Saint Patrick's Day decorations and got busy. I kept things pretty simpleonly decorating the shelving around the television downstairs and my kitchen bay window. I almost decorated the mantle, but decided I want to leave it unadorned for now.

Here is the front window (I can't manage to get a shot of the entire thing very well):



A closer look...


I love this little guy. I purchased a frame at the Dollar Store, painted it green, sprinkled it with some glitter and inserted this great picture I got from Graphic Fairy. I printed it on a piece of vintage sheet music.


Here is a closer look at the U in my LUCKY banner. The flash on the camera isn't working that well so this is as good as it gets. Guess what we are going to buy with our tax return?


Oh and I found a lampshade for the lamp in the entry way. It was a whopping $3 at Salvation Army. It is simple burlap. I may embellish it a bit, but for now I like it's simplicity.
