We should be closing on the house in a week. I am beyond excited. Not even sure there is a word for it. A house, a HOME, for Christmas. So blessed I am. Read Ephesians 2:8 and you will know how I feel.
I am so ready to furnish our new mini-mansion and I created an inspiration board for the family room. This will be one of the most important rooms to finish quickly. My last home had a definite French Country feel to it in the family room and kitchen, although quite contemporary with no traditional blue and yellow (see pics here). I want to keep a sense of some French country design but I wanted a new and fresh theme as well. I thought a Moroccan feel to the family room would be great to transition from a French Country-ish kitchen. Although Morocco never really was colonized by the French, the two have an intertwined history which makes for a perfect design theme.
