little things


We've been in this house for 3 months now, and despite zillions of pins on the home dec front 
(and that's not even the room-specific pins!), 
I keep resisting any/all decorating urges, usually along these lines:
it's just going to get drywall dust all over it.
we're painting this wall soon anyway.
but this wallpaper is coming out eventually.
ENOUGH ALREADY.
Yesterday I finally did what I should have done the day we moved in -- put up a few buntings, propped up a few favorite Katie Daisies, dug out the globe, and said ahhh.
The little things really do make a difference. Now if we can just get those baseboards in...

So true-ugh, that dry wall dust is a monster (or a bejillion micro-monsters!). I know where you are coming from--it's awesome to gut a house and redo it just how you like it, but it doesn't seem to happen soon enough (and the money doesn't ever go far enough, either). I can't wait to see all the good work you guys are doing!
