Luckily I had a gift card or else we would not be here enjoying them together..

The Creek Line House Homekeeping Tips and Tricks ArchivesSo I had a little bit of a brilliant thought the other day when I was trying to figure out what I was going to do about some sort of Valentine’s Day decorating for my fantel..The wall behind the fantel always kind of bugs me.

It was all stark and white and the previous owners had put some filler on some of the holes and it just looked sad.I always try to find something big like a piece of fabric or my big picket fence pieces as a back drop..This time though, I had a little eureka moment.

I could just paint it!.So, if you’re new around here, then right about now you’re probably thinking “Why doesn’t she just paint the walls a color that she likes?” Well, I could, but that would really be a big silly waste of time seeing as how all the ceilings need to come out and be raised up and replaced, and also the walls all really need to be torn out and re-drywalled.

It’s all in pretty sad shape.

So temporary quick-fixes are the name of the game around here until we can get around to do a full reno on every room.. Anyway….Maybe my little helper has learned a thing or two about decorating, and maybe I have too!.
