Until Now ...

We have this little room at the back of our house that is just beyond the stairs that lead to the back door. The wall that faces the back yard has three windows which basically take up the entire wall and there is also a sliding glass door wall that leads out onto the deck.

For years this room has held a treadmill that was recently sold at the garage sale, a bike and a china cabinet. Though the room gets a bounty of early morning sun, the space never really had much of a cheerful personality... until now...

I recently came across a bin of goodies in the storage closet, that I've been saving for "just the right spot", never finding the right spot ... until now ...

A couple of years ago, I just had to have this adorable red coffee table that I found at a thrift store. It has been sitting in our garage on top of the pepsi machine ... until now ...

The white wicker furniture that I was sure would be great on our front porch was in the attic loft ... until now ...

The cute red vintage hamper, that I thought would make a nifty end table someday, was sitting in the basement ... until now ...

All the wonderful red rugs I've been collecting were folded in the linen closet ... until now ...

The ladybug party lights were still in their box ... until now ...

A red gingham lamp sat on my bedroom closet shelf ... until now ...

A childs' red rocking chair sat unwanted in my teenagers bedroom ... until now ...

I was never happy with our little back room ... until now ...

Dang it all! If I lived closer I'd come and sit there with you and drink a hot cup of coffee and shoot the breeze for hours!

How wonderful! It is amazing that all of these treasures that you had stored away came together so very nicely. It is a lovely room!
