Downstairs Update

I honestly have tried for a while now to update the SunnyGrace blog, but our internet has not cooperated! For some reason I'm having a very difficult time uploading pictures. I have more to show you, but it has taken me forever to upload the ones below, so for now I guess this is all I can show

you.

 

This is the downstairs bedroom.  If you remember from my earlier blog post, this is where we were/are going to weather out the winter. Initially we were going to get a king bed frame and put the twin mattresses together on that frame.  Well, as you can see, that did not work out as planned. I told Jim that I'm really not liking this Ricky and Lucy scenario much....not much at all.

 

 





Have you noticed the mismatched bedspreads?!  It's nothing like I want. I need matching bedspreads, some pictures on the walls, curtains on the windows...EVERYTHING!

 

               I am kinda fond of this cotton rag rug though! I bought it for $15 at Kohl's!!            

I's a big rug....all country and cozy looking.

Let's see....how to describe the room.  Well, there's a door to the side porch. Also, I have an old ugly chair (covered with a bedspread) in the bedroom right now. It won't be staying there though. The chest is an old piece we've had forever. It holds the TV. I need to paint it....again. It's been at least three different colors. It'll be staying.





See the louvered doors in the upper right corner of the picture below?

I'm not sure what it'll be good for. I'm thinking about leaving the doors open and using it as another niche to display "pretties"....and maybe hanging some type of country sampler on one of the opened doors....not sure.

And....this my new kitchen sink....

....which is huge....and I LOVE it!  Jim said you could bathe a baby elephant in it. Yep! It's a cast iron 33" x 22" wonderful white.....heavy sink!

  

It fits (we hope) into this sink base. I have to figure out a paint color and knobs. I'm truly not looking forward to doing either of those things.  However, I AM looking forward to having a sink in the kitchen though....FINALLY!
Below is something I bought at a junk store to hang in the bath to put towels on.  It has a mirror in the middle and it has a ceramic king of spades and queen of hearts glued to it.  Jim took those two ugly things off so I could add something nice in their place.  I'll be showing that to you later.

 

For now, this is all the pictures that I can upload. More to come soon...hopefully!
