Decorating With Textiles & Vinyl

In ALL honesty, I haven’t been doing a lot on the home front. There is sooo much I want to do, but it takes time, money and waiting for one project to get done so I can move onto the next.

I also feel a little overwhelmed with motherhood as of lately. I have been wishing, hoping and praying for another little bundle to grace our home, but month after month it hasn’t happened.

And in all honesty I have been pretty sad about the whole process and somewhat in a rut.

But, on the flip side stepping back from the emotion of it all,

3 kids is a lot of WORK!! Maybe a little more space between number 3 and 4 won’t be a bad thing. Life is CRAZY as it is! You know the drill… Taxi driver, Cook, Maid, Laundry mat, Nurse, Personal Shopper, the endless jobs a mother gets to do! 🙂

I’m not complaining TRUST ME…My kids are my WORLD!!!

It’s just been one of those days and I need to remember that day to day problems are just that…ONE DAY!

This quote is one that helps me carry on

“Hands full now, Heart full Later”

I have some REALLY exciting elements I want to add around the fireplace, but the project is going to take some time, and MORE hard work, so until then, I decided to forget about the front room and focus on what I can finish and that room is the KITCHEN!
I have been wanting my kitchen to feel cozy and warm, especially for the holidays and the upcoming cold weather. Soooo, I have been on the search for a rug, and I think I found it!

(This picture doesn’t do it justice!)

Here it is in REAL life!!!

I ordered this rug online from Target it was FREE shipping and it arrived at my front door last Friday!

I couldn’t be more excited about the outcome. I am REALLY loving the blues, greens and browns! I am almost tempted to paint my black island white with a glaze to match my other kitchen cabinets. What do you think? Should I do it???

I also saw this darling vinyl idea off one my friend’s blog and I knew I had to do it too!

EAT…I think it makes a fun statement.

My kids have really had fun with it. I really believe it’s the small details that REALLY make the difference in a home!
