Moving Things Around

Some pieces of furniture are bought for a particular spot in our homes but I love the pieces that can get moved around to different rooms and work there too ! It’s like getting new furniture. This bench has been in my foyer, at the breakfast table, in my bedroom and now it’s sitting in my office/study.

That’s when the musical chairs game starts because the console table that was there needs to find a new home. Try the foyer…no, too deep, how about the bedroom…… this spot never felt right to me.

Yes, a perfect place to make a perfume bar………

As long as I’m glamming it up, might as well have a cute place for my jewelry. So, the mirrored table moves from the foyer to the bedroom.

When I moved the bench to the study then I had to move the old bench back to the master. It’s time for new fabric because my dog ruined the cream cut velvet. Do you like this one ?

Somehow, I ended up with an empty spot in my foyer nook. Just need to decide what to build for there, a bookcase, a rectangle table with fabric skirt or a bench with a tall tufted back.

Foyer



The first two photos are of my foyer. The bench has moved around with me and been covered in many fabrics over the years. Every foyer needs a happy doggie to greet you at the end of the day. The picture hanging above the bench has a stone statue of a lion inside of it.
(Yes, Leos live here !)
The other side has a mirrored table that I bought from someone on Craigslist. (I was a little obsessed with that site for a while) :) The wall sculpture came from a Chelsea House warehouse sale. I got it for $5 and painted it, what a bargain !
The bottom photo is a corner of the family room. Sitting on top of the round metal table is a wine rack that I turned into a magazine rack. The painting of our furbaby is by Jeremy's dad, Curley Granger. He did such an amazing job. Don't you think it looks just like her ?
