Fall To-do list

well hey friends.  'bout time I check in, huh?

Unfortunately, I missed my 1 year blogiversary [Aug 3].... Life just got in the way.  Guess we can still celebrate, huh? The good news is, I'm back in time to celebrate birthmonth.  It's finally here...September :)

Well.  Seems like the school year is in full swing already and I am quickly realizing this may be one of my busiest seasons yet.  Who would have thought?
Consequently, I don't have many home updates at this point.  [Hence the lack of updates].  I'm sure you all experience it at some point in your decorating/ remodeling process... getting comfortable with the state the house/room is in.  At the same time, I'm feeling the itch to do something creative or change things around a bit.  So... here are a few things on my to-do list....

1.  Refinish and style this coffee table.
This table was a beautiful find in the attic-a-la-Baker. My parents are [maybe] moving, and in the process, have removed everything Sarah-highschool and extra clutter from their home- resulting in this old, beat up coffee table [for free] in my house.

Which brings me to my next to-do...
2.  This room.


Furniture count:
3 chairs, 1 end table, 1 coffee table, 1 dresser, 2 drawer sets, 1 bookshelf, 1 sewing machine table...

This is my front bed room.  As Dad moved all my belongings out of their home, the boxes o' crap made their way here- to my front spare bedroom.  I need inspiration to get organized!!  And...a man to move that gigantic tv on the floor [buried amongst the clutter]

3.  Loveseat wall.
above the loveseat.
I've rearranged my furniture yet again.  [of course, due to the addition of free finds from the attic]... so this wall needs a little TLC.  I'm open to suggestions.  My thrifted, spray painted frames with scrap fabrics just aren't cutting it...

4. Entry way area...
I would love a beautiful desk/hutch combo with some vintage flair and charm to it.

5.  This wall is above my new counters and behind my hanging light and next to my sliding glass doors. What to do, what to do...

and no...the computer does not typically reside there...

I feel like this only scratches the surface of things to be done around here.  If nothing else, this blog post is reminding me of the things to be done around here....guess I better get to working....I'll keep you updated.
