Here's What's Happenin'

Remember this clock that my dad gave me after much begging on my part? I finally got it up on my entertainment center. Whatcha think?
I totally reset the entire top of the entertainment center. Before, everything was dark, wood and such. Today, I used a little bit of everything from wicker to enamel to chippy metal.
My sister, Lucy Jane came over, took a look at this frame/mirror/diploma and said "straighten it out". So, the lean is gone. I think she was right. No time to retake the pic though! Maybe later.
I'm still working on the entertainment center, but I wanted to give you a little peek at what is going on.

Happy Thursday!

  1. Looks great! How do you have so much energy to do so much? You work, you have an antique shop, you host the road kill chili cookoff, you host family parties and you remodel and redecorate! You are the energizer bunny!

  3. I really like the white change. I say lean 'em just in different directions. But what do I know...I ain't the M&M's!

  4. Mindy,
    I like the white and light look. It is a real eye catcher. So interesting, good job. Have a Blessed Easter. Sandi

  5. Malisa, how I do it, is I put everything off til the last minute. And then, I am non-stop. I work best under pressure. Not sane, I know. But, how I function. Additionally, I absolutely love to entertain.

    The year I turned 40, I had a party every single month. I had a ball organizing theme parties. It was a heck of a year! And, by the way, my house managed to stay pretty clean that year. Maybe I should start doing that again!

    Debbie, I might climb back up and try askewing them. See what I think.

    Thanks, y'all! I had fun changing it up. I keep looking at it thinking "Wow, that is different!" ~Mindy

  10. Love all the whites and neutral tones with touches of rust. I have in my hands a decorating book titled "White on White" and your display looks like it's a page right out of the book! Great work junk friend!

  13. It looks good--I love the old mirror. I kind of went away from the chippy white for a bit, but now i am getting back into it. The display makes me want to even more. Off to some thrift stores now!
