Coffee Table Switch-up

Hello everyone!

Well, if my constant tweaking around the house is any indication that I'm feeling better, then I must be feeling fantastic!  LOL!  If you know me well enough by now, don't get used to something staying the same around here too long.  So  today................here is what I've changed.  Who knows what it will be tomorrow etc.  

I decided to try using my Kubu trunk (from Ikea) as a coffee table.


I was thinking I would love the texture that it gave the room and be a bit smaller than the huge coffee table that I had in here. 


And I must say, I'm really liking the change.  Now, I'm not parting with my old coffee table.  I still love it.  I'm just switching things up for now.  So, it will go in our basement until I'm ready for it again.  (And you know I will one day!)

I even changed up the artwork in the room.............again.

My dog print came back in here.


And another dog print with the frame painted in white.



Now, since I was using my trunk as a side table, I decided to bring in another piece that would compliment the trunk in it's place and be the perfect height for a side table.


Do you know what it is?  It's a grey wicker hamper with a liner and an attached lid!  Yep!  Simple and borrowed from another room in the house.  And the best part is it stores our throws.

And since I'm bringing in all this texture everywhere, I just had to show you these cool  birch logs I found for sale the other day.  I love them!  (We won't be burning them though.)  They will fill the fireplace until we actually USE it this winter. (I know all of you in the Midwest are laughing that I had to buy something you can grow in your own backyard. Wish I was that lucky.)


So here is the full room reveal.


I hope that all of you have a great weekend planned!

We are having beautiful weather and I am grateful to be feeling well again.  

Thanks for stopping by!
