<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I was looking back through our old posts to see if I had ever shared my updated wedding pillow. Do you remember our original wedding pillow? Here is a link to the original. </span><a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/05/wedding-pillow.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Wedding Pillow</span></a><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> Not long after I created this fun pillow I designed this more traditional wedding pillow. (But apparently I have been too busy to write or photograph it). </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">In honor of our 6 new facebook likes yesterday (I know it may not seem like many to you, but to me, it is marvelous) I have decided to give one of these wedding pillows away. (With the feather down insert of course).</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span> </div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> Pillows can be purchased, if you don't win</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> :( </span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">They make a great wedding/shower/baby gift and retail for $75. Pillows measure 16 by 24.</span></div>

<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">So all I need you to do is like it and share it to win it on Facebook. I will draw a name at random on Sunday night, and announce the winner Monday August 12, 2013</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">I will then contact you privately about your order :) And by the way you don't need to live in Lynchburg to win this pillow. I will include shipping to the lucky winner. Please help me get 6 more likes!</span></div>

Most days I consider a success, with a few hiccups along the way, of course. :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> I can't believe that Sterling is already nine weeks old. I was looking through pictures of her just a few weeks ago and I can't believe how much bigger she is now. Well nine weeks after her birth, we have finally seen the last of her visitors come and go and I thought I would share with you the guest suite I decorated in time for her birth. I wanted a soothing retreat for our guests, and I am just thrilled with how it turned out, maybe because it is one of the only finished rooms in my house right now. My dining room, living room and work room are all currently in a state of remodel. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">This room started with the curtain fabric. I found it a few years ago at a high-end design shop here in Lynchburg. The shop was closing it out for $4/yard! I don't know about you but when I can find a great linen priced below the cost of lining I swoop it up. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">My mother likes to read so a comfortable chair was a must. I found this 1960's wing chair in the basement of a local upholstery shop. I loved the lines so I had it reupholstered in a beige linen (again the color is pulled from the original curtain material). As you know, I like to move my furniture from room to room so I find that by covering it in a neutral fabric I can change the entire look by just changing out the pillows or adding a new throw. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">As I said earlier in this post the rest of my house is torn apart. I am currently working on my living room/dining room, work room, and master bedroom. I should know better than to attempt multiple rooms at once. I don't have the budget, and I loose focus. Too many choices! Here is a sneak peak at my work room. I really do think this is the prettiest 10 square feet of my entire home.</span></div>

In typical Rebekah style I've already changed out the chair at my sewing table. Maybe that is why room reveals are few and far between these days. When finished this room will have over 60 yards of Brown Damask Schumacher fabric. Dreamy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I finally have about 5 extra minutes and I wanted to share a few more photos from Sterling Grace's newborn photo session along with a few tips from my talented cousin and professional photographer Krista Joy about photographing a newborn. Here is a link to Krista's website. <a href="http://kristajoyphotography.com/" target="_blank">Krista Joy Photography</a></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Tip #1</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Keep all props and set ups safe, soft and warm for the little one. </span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> Don't have any set ups that make mom and dad uncomfortable (i.e. suspension shots/swaddled from a branch). For example, in the photo above we wanted the rough texture of the barrel, but I did not want Sterling's sweet newborn skin to get splintered or scratched so we stuffed the barrel with pillows and then topped the pillows with a cozy blanket. Not only does it look great but we protected her skin from the harsh edges of the barrel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Keeping baby Sterling Safe. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> What you can't see in this photo is that both my husband and I are standing about 2 inches away from her just in case she decided to move. Photographing a newborn is not a solo task, it requires multiple spotters.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> Lastly keep the space warm.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> We had a little heat to warm the space so Sterling would not get cold. After all, we don't want to torture the poor dear.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Bring along lots of props. Before we started this photo session we poured over other newborn photos on the Internet to be inspired. I loved the idea of a baby in a barrel. Honestly as we got into shooting this series of photos we could tell they were not going to be the best photos of her. She was awake and cross eyed for most of this series...and moving (see how she is not in focus above)...it was time to move on. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I want to introduce you to our newest family member, Sterling Grace. She is absolutely perfect. I am taking this summer off to be with my children, they really do grown up so quickly. I would love to write a few articles this summer, but at this point I consider it to be a successful day if I put a load of laundry in and see it through folded and put away. It is really the small things!</span></div>

They completely updated the house and let in tons more light. It was just in a "we do things half a$$ around here and then leave it" type way... Yes. That is right. We opted to order the doors unstained because it saved significant cash AND because we think we can do everything ourselves. <br />

No biggie right. Just stain these fiberglass doors. How hard could it be? Truthfully. Not that hard. Anyone could do it. JUST GET THE RIGHT KIND OF STAIN! You know how you just walk into a store, ask an associate a question, and then go with his answer without even considering he may be wrong. Don't do that! We just went with the can of stain the sales guy pointed us to without even so much as a second thought. That is, until we started staining! <br />
<br />
What we needed was gel stain.... what we were using was regular stain. Big difference here people... huge! For whatever reason we still didn't really question this product selection (at least not enough to start over) until about a week later, when it was finally dry to the touch, but if you touched it it peeled right off. <br />

At this point we had already paid our contractor to hang the doors and even though they looked terrible up close we decided to just ignore it.... for a little over a year! In a "we do things half a$$ around here and then leave it" type way.<br />
<br />
Finally this spring we decided to remedy the problem. Will stripped the doors and I painted them. <br />

I think we only brought home 5 samples to choose from. We are making strides in over coming our color choosing issues. We had a couple blues, green, another stain, coral, and hot pink. Would you believe the hot pink won?!? Valspar Berry Blush to be exact.<br />

I LOVE it! It makes the house so very happy to me. This place has come a long way from when we bought it. It was one of those places that everyone insisted was haunted (more on that another day!). But now, I think it is apparent that people live here. Happy people. Hot pink front door type people! It couldn't suit us any better!<br />

In the same group of pictures on my camera was this beauty.<br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: large;">I have always had the dream of being one of those skinny pregnant women. You know the type, the ones that have a little basketball in their belly and that is it....the rest of their body's show no signs of bloating or pudge...yep well I guess I am going to have to let that dream go.....with all three of my pregnancies I blew up! In fact I am so pregnant all over this time that when my sweet and very talented cousin who owns Krista Joy Photography asked to take family photos this spring I said no! Absolutely not! I am way too big to be photographed. So we compromised, and I have to say I am so happy she won. Here are a few of my favorite pregnancy photos.</span></div>

If you are local here in Lynchburg, she will be scheduling a day to take newborn pictures in a couple weeks. (Yay!) So message me at Woven Home on Facebook and I will keep you posted on the date. She charges $150 for an hour session, and a disk of edited photos.</span></span></div>

<br />
I have no excuse except that blogging was taking up a little bit too much of my time... so I took a break. I love this blog but it's not worth ignoring my kids and house for! Balance, it's elusive here! Please share with me if you have got it all figured out!<br />
<br />
In the meantime, I've been cranking out projects like crazy. It's amazing how much more you can get done by cutting out blogging about it!<br />

Onto the real topic at hand. Harper Kate's big girl room is underway! She will be three in June (WHAT!?!?!?!) so it is out with the crib and in with a pink bed. Yes, pink. Saying that pink is her favorite color would be an understatement. I would say it's more of an obsession. She actually thinks her eyes are pink.... enough said, right!<br />

We were so very lucky to get to trade her crib for this amazing solid wood Jenny Lind style bed. It came from our good friends in town who run <a href="http://www.camptonawandah.com/" target="_blank">Camp Ton-A-Wandah</a> and for me inspired a vintagey glam style for my little pink obsessed baby girl {side note... if you are looking for an amazing and truly magical girls summer camp that has been around since 1933 you must check them out!}.<br />
<br />
Here is a before. It was gorgeous as is but she was serious about wanting a pink bed!<br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I think I am nesting....I have the sudden urge to fix all of the problems and neglected areas in my house, much to my husband's dismay! Every weekend I have a new project planned for us to tackle. Some get finished, but most get put back on the list for another weekend. Somehow, two boys, two dogs, a husband, and a freak winter storm at the end of March have a way of detouring my plans....so I have learned to get creative with my time management. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">The closet in the nursery needed to be repainted. (Along with several other rooms in my house that are this same "builder beige." ) I just don't have time before the baby comes to paint my entire house, I decided to touch up the paint, instead of repainting. The closet took me less than one hour. (The rest of my house took me 4 hours, and it looks like I repainted every room!) I am not crazy about the beige, so someday I will repaint, but for now, this will do :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">If you are smart/lucky you have a record of the paint used....I was not lucky....my home is about 10 years old, and I do not have a record of the beige my builder used. Don't try to match the paint with swatches! It does not give you a perfect match. Instead cut a piece of drywall from behind an electrical switch plate and take it to the paint store to be matched. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Prepare the area...I am a messy painter, so for me this step aways includes a drop cloth. I like to use a small roller with a short nap. Often I will need a brush to get in the corners. Use a paint tray...as you can see I did not... For a small closet, only a little bit of paint is needed. (I used less than one quart for my entire home.) Lastly, make sure to fill in and repair any holes before painting. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Use a dry brush technique. In other words, do not saturate the bush/roller with paint. Very little paint is needed. Dip the roller in the pant, and then roll off as much paint as possible in the pan before painting the wall. (Very similar technique as stenciling).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Lightly roll over the wall's blemish. Do not saturate the wall with paint, but lightly cover the blemish. If too much paint is used sometimes one can see the patch. If blemish is not covered with the first coat of paint, wait for it to dry then paint a second coat. I like to roll all of my paint off the roller before I re dip. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Let the paint dry, and clean up tools. If this process seems confusing, don't hesitate to go into your local paint store and ask for advice. My favorite local paint store in Lynchburg is Virginia Paint Company on hwy. 221 they are always happy to answer my questions. They sell Benjamin Moore Paint, and honestly Bonnie is the best color expert in town. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">p.s. I had a concerned reader write me about my choice to use Annie Sloan's chalk paint on the crib. I have to say at first I was rather suprised by her email, however I feel like it is my job to make informed decisions about my projects. Not only do I not want to endanger my daughter, I don't want to endager my readers' children either. I have written to the Annie Sloan Co. and received an quick response. Their paints and waxes are completely safe to be used on a crib. (I chose this paint because of it's low VOC levels, but it is always nice to have confirmation from the source). It is very important as with any product, to allow the paint to cure. With the ASCP product to allow the wax to harden. This process usually takes about a month. My baby will not be born for another two months, and she is not expected to pull up on the crib for at least 6 months after that. So I think I am safe...honestly I expected concern over the bumper...which has been linked to SIDS, not the paint. (I will be removing the bumper, I was using it for photo purposes only.)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;"></span> <span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I am so excited to share my latest project with you today. I have been so busy with all of my other projects that I have not shared my big news with y'all. I am expecting a little girl at the end of May. I have had so much fun putting together my little girl's nursery. Now hopefully she does not come out with an extra part! Oh well if she does, I hope he likes pink! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I have to admit that starting this project was a little overwhelming. There are so many beautiful nurseries on Pinterest alone, I did not know what direction I was going to take. In fact I had bought all of the fabric for the nursery and then changed my mind all together when Kandi offered me all of Harper's bedding. I have been so busy I was afraid if I took on one more project this baby might be coming home to a pack-in-play in the closet! Kind of like my first two :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Once we decided to take Harper's crib bedding, this whole project came together in about one week. The crib bedding can still be purchased at Hoohobbers.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">If you know me, you know I preach fabric first, then paint. I took one of the pinks from the bedding and chose Pink Hibiscus a Benjamin Moore color for the walls. If my baby is anything like me, she will hate pink until she is in her 30's so this might be my only chance to paint a wall pink in my house! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">I also decided to paint the crib. Here is a before picture of the crib. I used this crib for my boys, and loved it, but I wanted to soften all the dark wood for my baby girl.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">The swan and Aesop's Fable needlepoint were my last two purchases for the room. I have to admit I did splurge on these two beauties I found at one of my favorite store's in Lynchburg, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/find-friends/browser/?ref=tn#!/pages/Enchanted-Antiques/242312505813585?fref=ts" target="_blank">Enchanted</a>. But I think they were worth every penny they are my two favorite things in the whole room.</span><br />

<span id="goog_825272741" style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I made the curtains long 12 inches longer than floor length so they could be pulled back and still puddle on the floor. I made them out of a white cotton quilted fabric to help soften all the pink in the room. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New; font-size: large;">I have owned this dresser for years, and I think it works perfectly between the windows. This chair has also been reappointed from another space in my house. I think rocking chairs are great, but it was just not in my budget. This is my third baby, and I did not use one for my first two. What I wanted more than anything was a comfy place to stretch out during those late night feedings. Although this chair will not win any design awards, it does win a comfort award in my book. So it stays. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">We (Sarah and I) go to Black Dog Salvage about once a week to restock the Woven Home Space, and do a little sprucing. Last week during our visit, Koiner (the Market Manager) asked us if we would be interested in helping a church pew look more festive....and of course I said yes. So for the past week we have been busy sewing sewing sewing! This is a picture of the space today before we placed our college pillows, table runners and blankets. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I have to confess this week has been an emotional whirlwind! It is really hard for me to know if I am making the right choices when it comes to Woven Home Virginia, and where and how I want to market and brand our little store. I called Kandi last week right before I moved into <a href="http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/blackdogsalvage?fref=ts" target="_blank">Black Dog Salvage</a> in Roanoke and asked her if she thought I was crazy investing in a space an hour away from Lynchburg. As always she told me to not panic, and it was going to be great. What was the worst that could happen? Scenario 1: In 3 months I have to move all the same inventory out that I moved in....well at least I tried it....or Scenario 2: I would have to hire another person just to handle our Black Dog Salvage space because it was such a wild success. (To which I laughed and told her she really was my best friend because we must be on the same level of crazy!!!) Well I have to report that less than one week in we are on the track for Scenario 2, and we could not have done it with out you our readers! Thank you for your support!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Yesterday Sarah and I had to make a quick trip to Roanoke to replace all of the inventory that had sold since last Thursday!</span> <br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Our new look. We still have a French Script Wing Chair. ($550) Yesterday Sarah and I added a Oak Drop Leaf Table for ($350). Do you see those wooden boxes between the wing chair and the table? These boxes are one of my favorite items in our space. I had them made from old barn wood they hold a large mason jar...perfect for a table setting...here let me show you. </span><br />

It is that time of year again to head out into your yard and cut some branches!<br />
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
Am I the only one who gets serious spring fever about now? It doesn't help that we keep having warm days only to head right back down into the twenties the very next day. <span style="background-color: white;">Teaser! I love more</span> than anything to have fresh flowers in my house and about this time of year it is easier than you might think to achieve that Pottery Barn blooming branch look for absolutely free! Just head outside and get to clipping. <br />

Faux branches have their place but why use them when you can have the real thing!! <br />
<br />
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">February and March are the perfect time of year to start forcing branches. It can take from a couple days to up to 8 weeks to see blooms on your branches. Here is the process I use. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja_b1d7xlm_Nwye-W66DSMhDTZZluvJQUxaP9ASzhXf4K7wycrDnhQxtAEVOuhZnSM2krY8aktGMtaytXgs2QhlDuwn2-m1i6Ovsb9dI74mokUy6sJw0H6qrRMlp5CXs_wRgXGnwHuyTc/s1600/forcing+branches.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja_b1d7xlm_Nwye-W66DSMhDTZZluvJQUxaP9ASzhXf4K7wycrDnhQxtAEVOuhZnSM2krY8aktGMtaytXgs2QhlDuwn2-m1i6Ovsb9dI74mokUy6sJw0H6qrRMlp5CXs_wRgXGnwHuyTc/s640/forcing+branches.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">1. Find your tree or bush that blooms in spring. Forsythia, Dogwood, Crabapple, and Cherry are my favorite and all force easily. I used forsythia here and am cutting my Dogwoods to force into bloom next week. The forsythia took me about 3 weeks ( I cut the beginning of February). </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">2. Look for branches around dime size diameter with beginning buds and lots of them. Cut more than you think you'll need because some of them will not work. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">3. Cut and put straight into a bucket of water. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">4. I bring mine to the rarely used downstairs shower and give them a good bath in tepid water. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">5. Cover with a trash bag and close the curtain. If you can't put them in a dark area then use a dark trash bag. The trash bag keeps the humidity up and moves them along quicker. Change your water every few days. A 65-70 degree area works best. </span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">6. In one to eight weeks depending on the branch and how close they were to bloom at the time of cut, you will have your beautiful flowering branches!</span></div>
<div align="left">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<span style="font-size: small;">It really is that easy. Step 7... show them off! Change your water every few days and they'll last from 1 to 3 weeks depending on the type of branch. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Can I just say I have the best friend and partner in the whole world! (Okay the best two...I love you too honey!) I don't think I have written a blog post since last October!!! Thank you Kandi for keeping this part of our dream alive. I am hoping to never be away for so long again. It has been so long, I had forgotten how to log on! I am hoping as I write this it will all come back to me just like riding that bike right? :) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">So let me catch you up on what is happening with our little Virginia extension of Woven Home....As many of you know I agreed to be a part of a two month long Winter Market here in Lynchburg. We had a blast, & we sold alot of furniture and pillows over those two months. However, had it not been for my mother's frequent visits to Virginia, my family would not have put up or taken down our Christmas tree this year! She was amazing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I know this may come as a shock, but I have learned over the past few months that I really can't do it all, so although I loved sharing a store, I think I can cross that number off my bucket list! My hat goes off to all of those great hard working store owners! We are still passionate about getting our product into your home, so I have made the decision to continue to supply product in a whole sale/consignment manner to our favorite places and we add another location or perhaps locations to our list.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/urbanmerchant" target="_blank">URBAN MERCHANT</a></span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> in downtown Lynchburg is one of my favorite local places to shop. We just dropped off our spring line of pillows and covers last week. For our North Carolina fans, we will be at the <a href="http://finderskeepersofnc.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">FINDER'S KEEPERS</a> sale this spring and we can't wait to see you!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Today was a huge day for us at Woven Home, today we moved into a corner booth space at a "little store" in Roanoke called <a href="http://www.blackdogsalvage.com/" target="_blank">BLACK DOG SALVAGE</a>....you may have heard of it because it has its own show on HGTV and the DIY network!!!! The staff at Black Dog is amazing and so helpful. If you are in Roanoke please stop by and see our new space. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I decided fabric swatches would be a great additions to our space. Many of our clients carry our pillow covers around with them when they shop for other "items" so I thought this might be a nice addition. It is also nice to be able to take the fabric home with you before a purchase to make sure the fabric works with your existing home decor...We also include fabric swatches with each of our covers.</span></div>

Projects that have been but a glimmer in my eye miraculously begin with unbefore seen enthusiasm! Hey... we take it how we can get it!<br />
<br />
Confession. Since we ripped out the coat closet and put in the <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/07/entry-closet-makeover-reveal.html" target="_blank">entry bench</a> it has been a little harder than expected to keep everything as tidy as I would like. During the summer it was a breeze, but now that Old Man Winter is here and we all have 3 or 4 coats in rotation it is not quite as easy. Solution... more hooks! But, we couldn't just throw hooks on the wall around here and call it a day. <br />
<br />
I've been pinning and loving board and batten for some time now. I think it keeps with the character of this house and it just looks amazing! There have been multiple board and batten mud rooms floating around Blogland so it just took a little research and we were off to Lowes to gather supplies. <br />
<br />
One inspiration photo from Casa de Lewis.<br />

We have a tiny little "mudroom" as you walk in from the garage just off the kitchen. It isn't functional. I did have a stool and tiny shelf and a pin board in there where I just piled things until they fell on the floor before I put them away. I mean.... probably not the best method.<br />

Other projects that I am sure the <strike>guilty</strike> sweet husband will finish up in the near future include the built-in desk for my vintage lockers AND getting the guest room painted (which I could totally do myself but I might as well milk it!).<br />

I always feel so full of possibility and resolve to be better. Lots better! I will not be swayed by the fact I have made the lists and promises to myself for 20ish plus years now and not followed through! You couldn't convince me in a million years that I might not finish even one of my goals! While it lasts I'm going to embrace the energy and excitement that the new year always brings me! <br />

Looking back at <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html" target="_blank">last January</a> on the blog I see big things. Huge room reveals and completed projects... seems like those are the kinds of things that go on in January. We also made some "resolutions" for our blog... that like most resolutions, we didn't hold to very long. <br />
<br />
For us, this blog is a creative outlet. We do not post every day... sometimes not even every week. But, we still love it and you guys still read it so we will keep it up. Who knows... we might even post like 2 or 3 times a week this year :-)<br />
<br />
2012 was an insane year. So much went on at Woven Home! Our flagship Holiday Market, <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/09/finders-keepers-fall-sale.html" target="_blank">Finders Keepers Sale</a>, published in our first real magazine, lots of new client business, <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/07/when-life-hands-you-lemons-go-to-beach.html" target="_blank">emergency surgeries</a>, and maybe even some growing families :-)<br />
<br />
Who knows what 2013 will bring but I am so excited to find out what it will be! We both have lots of projects going on in our own homes and lives that we will share as soon as we can. <br />
<br />
But, right now, I'm going to go take my fat before pictures, make a healthy grocery list, walk through my house jotting down all the projects I'm going to complete, and then sit down on the floor and play with my kids! <br />
<br />
CHEERS TO 2013!<br />

<u><span style="font-size: large;">Playroom</span></u></div>
The upstairs of my house stays very traditional in its Christmas colors. But, the <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/01/playroom-reveal.html" target="_blank">playroom</a> goes wild! Why not! I was actually too lazy to put this tree up last year but it was the first one up (of the 5) this year. I had every single thing on this tree already so not having to spend any money made it much more fun. <br />

The only new thing added to the tree is the little bunting. I made it from scraps of leftover <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/11/handmade-christmas-stockings.html" target="_blank">stockings</a>. I used the same method as I did for <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/08/happy-birthday-penant-banner-tutorial.html" target="_blank">Harper's Birthday Bunting</a> for cutting the triangles and just sewed them onto a pink ribbon. Easy and adorable!</div>

More pared down I would say. I went with real greenery and added a string of lights. I bought 75 feet of garland (SERIOUSLY!! I measured because I didn't believe them!) for only $55. I thought that was a good deal and I really do like it a whole lot better. <br />

I actually truly hate these stockings. I've had them for years and after I finished up making stockings for the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/wovenhome?ref=hl" target="_blank">Woven Home Store</a> I just haven't had the time (or made the time) to make some for myself. <br />

I moved around all my <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2011/12/around-house.html" target="_blank">string trees</a> and pulled some antlers in along with some glittery apples, pears, and reindeer. <br />

So... this mantle is bound to change in the near future and I'll probably <strike>not </strike>do an update post on it... but I am planning a stocking tutorial soon so you can see how I made<a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/11/handmade-christmas-stockings.html" target="_blank"> these</a> babies! I tried to spend zero dollars on new Christmas decor this year. But, my imaginary mantle has neutral stockings, big lanterns full of candles and vintage mercury glass ornaments, and maybe some of those super awesome driftwood trees I've seen around this year... there is always next year :-)<br />

I am glad I spent some extra time wrapping this year. Am I the only one who hates to wrap?!? I can shop all day but then I'm done. I bought plain red and brown wrapping paper from Ikea, used some leftover Target paper from last year and added ribbon I already had on hand. Made a world of difference and it's a step in the right direction!<br />

The jist is you turn all your lights off except the tree and including your flash, turn your ISO up as high as it will go (I did 6400), turn your shutter speed down, and use a tripod or something to steady it on. I'm going to make you click over to <a href="http://unskinnyboppy.com/2010/12/taking-pics-of-tree/" target="_blank">Beth's blog</a> for the real in depth details (cause it's the right thing to do!). There she will tell you specifics and you should check out some of her other great posts while your there! <br />

But the new chairs are much more suited for this big room. The chairs at the heads of the table were $25 each from Habitat and were recovered in drop cloth and piped in chocolate brown linen. The other chair seats were recovered also. Four in a Waverly over scaled floral (can't remember the exact print!) and the other two in <a href="http://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=ba1ea41a-08f5-4651-9d62-6fff27810005">Raymond Waites for Mill Creek</a> in Felton Coral.

You can tell in the before picture above. Tiny console table with an enormous picture over it and ity bity lamps. It was just all sorts of wrong. But now I LOVE it. I am most proud that all the big stuff here came from the Goodwill and was revamped! You can see the <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/11/goodwill-dresser-turned-dining-room.html" target="_blank">buffet story here</a> and more on the pictures later this week but they are stamped original botanical prints for $35 each at Goodwill! The mirror I had and painted it white from red. And the lamp, which mimic the light fixture, were a Tuesday Morning find. Even the little pillows are from a little piece of hand done crewel (by the sweetest old woman) I picked up at a yard sale and turned into pillows. Obviously she had amazing taste. She said she did this piece 20 or 30 years ago!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The cost break down is pretty unreal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spent about $40 on fabric (discount remnants), $40 on the <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/11/goodwill-dresser-turned-dining-room.html" target="_blank">Goodwill dresser turned buffet,</a> $70 on the art, $200 on the sea grass rug (Overstock), $50 on paint, and $90 on the two lamps. Put it all together with a little elbow grease, a few hand me downs (chairs and curtains) and you get a whole room revamp for only about $500! Not too shabby I would say. Especially when you space it out over a year :-)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It may have taken a year to get it where I wanted up but I love the results. The pops of pink and green make me smile without being overly girly and I couldn't be happier to mark this one off the list!</div>

<br />
This monogram pumpkin served as a place card and then as a small gift for the guests of our table at the <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/11/elegance-of-fall-fundraiser-collection.html">Elegance of Fall</a> Event. They were super easy and extremely affordable at only $2 a pop. AND... I live in the South, so as you might imagine, they were a huge hit!!<br />
<br />
I couldn't find any all white pumpkins that I liked so I bought the bronze version at Michael's and just applied a coat of ivory spray paint. I had the stem taped off but decided I hated it bronze so I took a Silver Sharpie Paint Pen and went over the stem. <br />
<br />
Once this is done you are ready to get started on your monogram. I just made a simple monogram for everyone in Word. It took me a minute to get the size right for my pumpkin but once it is done you just have to plug each persons in and print. <br />
<br />
Directions:<br />
1. Print each monogram and cut it down to a manageable size rectangle.<br />
<br />
2. Using a pencil trace and color in each monogram ON THE BACK OF THE PAPER. You should be able to see right through your paper without anything special but if not tape it to a window and the light coming through will help. <br />

<br />
3. Tape it to your pumpkin and using a blunt edge (I used my Sharpie with the lid on for this) go over your entire monogram applying gentle pressure. When you remove the paper your should have an image of the monogram. <br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

4. Using a Sharpie or paint pen (I used a Silver Sharpie Paint Pen) trace and fill in your lines. (This is the point at which you will be glad you used a simple monogram!)<br />

5. It dries fast. I suppose you could put a clear coat of sealer on top but mine have held up just fine. <br />

It was a wonderful evening full of laughter and tears, but also beautiful and inspiring winter tablescapes. My girls night out group sponsored a table. Each table had to be 100% clothed from linens to flatware along with a center piece to be auctioned off. <br />
<br />

We went with an creamy white and silver themed table. This table included white pumpkins, white roses, mercury glass, Lenox china, and some amazing silver! The center piece to be auctioned was a white pumpkin filled with silk flowers in shades of cream that could be used year after year for fall table settings. <br />

One of my favorite designers, Renee McCurry (who we got to know at the <a href="http://wovenhome.blogspot.com/2012/09/finders-keepers-fall-sale.html">Finders Keepers Sale</a>), was also there and put together a stunning hunt themed table. From the buffalo check and paisley table clothes, to vintage trophies and pheasants ... her table had it all and was incredibly gorgeous! </div>

I'm not sure where the room makeover started? Maybe with the new art I picked up at Goodwill, maybe with the new dining room chairs, or was it the curtains? I just can't remember! My mom did pick up this pretty amazeballs Drexel dresser at Goodwill for.... wait for it........ $40! I kid you not.<br />

It was in amazing shape on the inside but the the top had some major water damage and the front drawers had peeling veneer. I'm not sure what might have happened to it but it was bad! I didn't take on the painting of this one. My sweet step father did and he is so much more of a perfectionist than I ever dreamed of being so this dresser turned buffet is absolutely perfect. <br />
