Last week I showed you the progress we have made so far in our guest bedroom. You can find that post here with some before and after shots as well as a full source list. When I was playing around adding some accessories to the room I first tried out some pops of red.

While Jon was out on the road recruiting last week the girls and I went to New Hampshire for a few days. It was a relatively quick trip with lots of snow so we didn’t do a whole lot and I didn’t take very many pictures but I did shoot a few of the little Christmas vignettes at my parent’s house.

Although we still have more to do in this room (eventually wallpaper above the chair rail, a hutch, a non-made-by-me table, etc.) now that we’ve made a decent amount of progress in here I thought it would be fun to set the table. First I brought our bench in from the kitchen.

There was a time when I felt as though I was becoming a familiar face here on the blog. However, the year or so that I spent making monthly contributions is now but a vague and distant memory. For those of you who are relatively new here, my name is Jason.

Now that a lot of the bigger projects downstairs have been tackled, it’s time to get back to work upstairs. We made over Lillie and Lola’s room shortly after we moved in so they would be comfortable but other than that we didn’t do anything upstairs for the first couple of months.
