A Little Somein' Somein'


Don't you just love it when a little accessory can brighten up your whole room? I needed a small change in my living room. Just a little something to keep me from going into shock from sheer boredom, and I needed to do it with very little money. I had a thought-throw pillows... a cheap change for minimal moo la. I went in search of the perfect pillows to perk up my couch and I got two new throw pillows at Target (one of my favorite places to spend an hour, and some hard earned cash) and they have brightened my whole outlook on my room and my current funk with it. I needed something that would bring my room out of Winter and into Spring and these did the trick. Gotta love a small change with big impact.

That is your homework for this week my few followers; (yes, I randomly decided I would give you homework) find the room in your house that is currently bugging you and find a small way to change it. Maybe even make it into a game... like I will find a way to change my ________room for under ________ bucks. I promise a little change for a "little change" can go a long way. Then once you have done the challenge post a comment on this post telling us all about it, or you can tell us all about a time in the past when you made a little change that made a big difference. Who knows I might even pick a favorite comment and give that follower a prize. We shall see.
Welcome to spring everyone!!

Does my deck count? I was tired of the arrangement, so I moved a couple chairs around and added a plant. I love it and it makes me want to spend more time outside!

It totally counts! That is what I am talking about....little changes that can make such a difference. Love it!

Ok well my whole house is that at the moment but I need big stuff to make the changes, like say a couch in the living room. I would have to say my patio furniture we just a had such a nice night chilling on last night. I used 3 cans of rust-o-leum on it and it looks 100% better. I'm gonna try and write a blog about it today and post pictures. Now I need to start sanding the old picnic table I bought for 20 bucks.

Ok I just want to copy what you did, My couch in my living room is driving me nuts and I am going out today (if I don't go into labor) and buying a few pillows for it (don't hate me if I buy the same one you did, I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!)

No worries Val. I am not one of those crazy people that cares if someone has something the same... promise. Hope no matter what you buy, that it ends up looking perfect!
