Feature Friday-Christy (Home decor)

Today's Feature Friday is my cousin ChRistY (Ok, so our husband's are cousins, a mere technicality). They recently moved in to a new home and have done some amazing things with their space. Here is a snippet of what's to come, hang a picture, hang a pan, close a loft, cover a cushion, cover the food, and happy birthday to you...Woow!

Don't you just love this picture grouping? I do. I have been collecting frames to copy it for a couple of months now. It is a great use of a usually big wasted space! You could even make it all meaningful and deep and start with a pic of you and your hubby and progress through the years as you climb. Aaaw, walk your family story every night before you go to bed.

Here is the kitchen before.

And now, after. I love this simple pot storage!
Simple clean lines that leave you with a cupboard free. Fantastico!

Now the before in the entry way, standing on the railing of the loft. Notice the fan in the background. Hi Leif!

And after. Fan moved out and loft closed up to be used as the baby's room just off of the master. Ingenious! I'm telling you, she is the queen of using wasted space!


Ugly Window Seat Cushion


Recovered to be pretty window seat cushion. You know how I love a good makeover!

I just had to put this one in for laughs! This is what she found after she asked her hubby to cover the food. He is very obedient.

And Christy, this is just 2 darn sweet! She made this sign for her hubby's b-day. Can you decipher? This is an IQ test!

Great ideas Christy! You are now entered into the hall of fame as Tipper of the Week!
