Color scheme challenge

My color scheme challenge is about my family room. We built this on about a year after my Mom passed away. She had carsiding in the diningroom that I just loved so we have 5 ft. of the wall of carsiding and sheetrock on the upper 3 ft. I also have her couch is a light teal that has a little bit of rust in it so we painted the upper walls rust color.. The wood is a light golden oak. The ceiling is a pitched ceiling and we also used carsiding on that too. The room has the warm,cozy feel of Mom's house that we grew up in . Just a little reminder of her that I see everyday.

Favorite way to relax

My favorite way to relax is to go sit outside with a good book and read for awhile. Preferably by myself so I can actually read the book!!! If that doesn't work I go across the street to my friends house and have some coffee and chat for awhile...that always works for me.

Shame on me!!!

I say shame on me cuz I haven't entered anything since July 7th!!! It's been a very busy summer for us. We have had our grandchildren alot(we pick them up from the sitter when my DH is done with work and have them until about 8:00 everyday).Now that they are in school it will be a little earlier. We also tore up all the wood floors from my mother's house and are going to put them in our livingroom and hallway. The guy that bought the house is tearing it down and let us take anything that we wanted. I really hate to see it go but without her in it,it's just not the same anyway. I also took the cupboards and am planning on making my NEW scrapping room downstairs and I thought they would come in handy for alot of storage.This is what I plan on working on this winter. We didn't go on vacation this year cuz we were just too busy...just not enough time in a day to do everything that you want!!! 2scrappychixdesigns is having their 1 year anniversary celebration this month and are having so many contests and also a week long crop!!! There are so many prizes and its all going to be so much fun!!! Come join in on the fun!!!
