Where did the Armoire Go"



Hello everyone!
How was your holiday"  Kids are now back in school and life has resumed back to normal here.  That means that I have some bad habits to break now.  Over the holidays, I slept late and didn't go to the gym very much.  So...........time to get back to my old routine!

Of course, some accessory changes had to happen too.  I decided to not use the grey ornate mirror above the chest because I didn't want it to compete with the huge armoire in the room.  So, I went very simple on the wall. 

 I'm loving the furniture shuffle so far.  

Our TV armoire has been changed as well.  I will share what we did in an upcoming post.  It's no longer the elephant in the room that it was!  
We may get some snow this weekend!  I'm very excited about it.  Why"  Because we har...
