Does anyone else have a corner of their living room or really anywhere in their house that has been a bit neglected????  

I sure do---in fact I have quite a few that all are just vying for my love and attention....

But lets face it I have only been in my new place for about a month and I think that the things I HAVE accomplished so far are just great.  

Soooo now I am finally getting around to the little forgotten and neglected but NOT overlooked or unloved areas of my home.

Starting here:

This little area has been changing a lot but just can't quite get situated... I realize that functional is needed---so the baskets are a must stay.  The table is one that I adore and since she fits so nicely she also gets to stay.  I must also point out the not-so-little-window I picked up two weeks ago for FREE at a garage sale----I have been wanting to do SOMETHING with it.... but I was not sure what until last night!  

Have you ever started decorating one area and then got overwhelmingly distracted by another?  That happened to me.  See I have another little decorating project going on but everything I was collecting for that area just happened to look better in this little living room area.....arrggghhhh!  Butt really I am happy to have this little area feeling less neglected and more like part of my beach-cottage themed living room like it should be.

I had really wanted to use those pictures somewhere else....butttt I kind of like them right where they are for now!  Anddd I have been wishing for a place to use that quote!

So a couple of eye hooks later and some ribbon, I found an easy way to hang the frames up----I am always interested in a way that allows for easy change---(I LOVE seasonal decor) so I thought this was a good way of keeping things simple!

Add a little vinyl and that is about it. 

Not bad for a quick little makeover right?!?!
