Love The One Your With

The other day I came across the following quote:

"NOTHING STEALS YOUR JOY LIKE THINKING, "I WILL ENJOY MY LIFE WHEN......"

So true don't you think? And while I do like to dream about what my house will look like in the future, I decided to start the year out with a look at what I currently have that I LOVE....
Our little house for starters. If I had a dollar for every time someone who lived in a big beautiful house with lots of moola told me they wanted to go back to their little first house, I would be in a bigger house, haha. But I believe them, I love our little house.

The chandelier above is the first thing I ever bought for our house. I found it at a local antique shop and bought it even before we found a home, I am so happy I got it. The wine barrel mirror from Bobo was a birthday gift from my husband.
In the picture above I love the console, the copper chairs, the pillows, and the chest from my Grandfather...

Clearly I have a thing for lighting, the chandelier on the right is in the master, it was one of those things I just had to ignore the hubby's opinion on and do what I wanted, so glad I did. (sorry PHS)
Last but certainly not least, probably my favorite piece(s)- a pair of chairs that belonged to my Great Grandmother. I had them reupholstered and I really would be traumatized if something happened to them. I had to beg my Mom for months for them and I am still convincing Patrick they are just as comfortable as a leather recliner..
Once I started taking pictures I realized there are so many things I could post, maybe I will have to do a Part II down the road. So while the daydreaming will continue I am going to try to not dwell on one day so much.....
