I mentioned in a recent post that we were making some changes at our family's lakehouse. I thought you might like to see
some of the small decorative projects going on!
some of the small decorative projects going on!
I recently made a simple sign for the dining room.
I started with large letters from the craft store...
I sprayed them with black spray paint, distressed them,
and glued them to this old board...
to make a GATHER sign...
It was a very easy way to make a large sign...
this one is over four feet long.
The fall paintings I found made a nice hallway gallery wall...
In the kitchen, the door to the little sunporch is painted with chalkboard paint. I change it out when the mood strikes,
but this is how it looks now...
The little sunporch is set up for games right now...
And we switched out the counter stools at the
breakfast bar for some with a mid-century modern look.
They are very comfortable, easy-to-clean, and sturdy.
Slow, but sure...little changes...
It's a fun place to gather!
Until next time...
How nice to have a lakehouse to gather your family - and I love your GATHER sign!!
