To Paint Or Not To Paint??

I'm finally starting to decorate the living area in our home. I found cute little birdie candle holders at Pier 1 Imports. They were the perfect color match for the rest of the room. The walls are a chocolate brown and I'm adding shades of green as accents.

Here is an up close photo of the mantle.

The candlesticks on either side of the mantle were a gift from my wonderful sis, Stacy. She found them at a consignment store. Aren't they perfect?
The photo frame I found at a little shop in Franklin, KY. Loved the green color and the design. The front of it reads "Enjoy The Journey" I put a photo of Phil and I inside. This was the first of many road trips together. The glass vase with brown wicker bottom was also purchased at Pier 1.



Another photo of the mantle. See the mirror? That's the subject in question. Should I leave it the gold/brown color or paint it white? All of the trim in the area is painted white and I think it would really pop against the brown walls. Does the current color just blend in to much with the dark brown wall?

The color ties in well with the overhead light fixture. You can see the fixture in the mirrors reflection.


So, What do you think? Paint or no paint?

Have a happy day......

A New Kid In Town

My hope for this post was to show you a few of the shops near our home, but a snowstorm in our area delayed my plans. We don't get much snow in Tennessee so the 6" we got in our area was HUGE. Since I don't have any shopping trip photos to show you I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to introduce the newest member of our family.

Say "Hello" to Brodie

Brodie is a month old today. He is such a blessing and I look forward to spoiling him as much as I can. He will be here this weekend for our Super Bowl Celebration. I'm thinking he needs a Colts jersey. Not sure his dad would agree, but hey it's my house. :)

Have A Happy Day,

Kris
