Mod Mix Monday #14

Easy and Pretty

I love the casual prettiness of this room. 

Oh...that tub! 

Whew! I finally managed to post without it being sad.

I'm thinking about redoing my bedroom. It's a very bad mess.

Why is it that our sanctuary is the last room we decorate in our homes?

I have pretty furniture but have been living or rather sleeping with dirty toothpaste mint green walls 

from the previous owner. 

Have I really lived here seven years now with a hideous bedroom?

So....I'm going to try to work a bit on it today.

But, things are all topsy turvy in my life...so this room makeover may take awhile.

I know I am super late with Mod Mix Monday.

But I'm doing good to do at all.

Now on to what I thought was super great from two weeks ago's Mod Mix Monday.

I really appreciate each and every one of you that link up.

I look at each one although of late I have not had time to comment, but know I do view all of them.

I can not resist this fabulous piece from

European Paint Finishes

I don't know that I've ever seen a buffet quite like this one.

It's so feminine! I'd like to have this sitting behind my sofa I think as a sofa table.

Penny at

WDWS Design Trends

placed together two antique English pedestal tables to create a nice long entry table.

What a great idea...and it's perfect in the space.

Very pretty stencil wall from

La Maison LaFortune

I'd paint that mirror white. And I bet she will....
she was still playing with the arrangement when she posted.
Great stencil pattern in a great color.

The Gardner's Cottage

I love her little cottage so much. 

If I could ever get a grip on my love of pastels....my house would look just like her's.

But alas....I cannot.

And finally, Nancy at

Nancy's Daily Dish

fixed an ugly husband situation.

She turned a not attractive change jar into this highly decorative demijohn.

It's no longer an eye sore but a lovely addition to her kitchen.

I love stuff like that.

Basically, her whole house is like this.

She recently moved into a not so great house and she is using her ingenuity and elbow grease 

to make it a dream home.

Fall is just about here. 

I can't believe we went from 105 degree days to 75 degree days over night.

My plants in the backyard instantly perked up.

My impatiens started blooming again after two months of nothing.

I have to say I am very happy for this summer to end. 

I had so looked forward to it and it just turned out so awful that I am happy to see it go 

whereas I normally would be melancholic about it.

Ok, on to this week....I've missed a lot in Blogland the last two weeks.

Help me catch up and post your Mod Mixes this week.

Remember to link to the actual post not your whole blog.

I want to see anything new mixed with something old.

Antique and Modern side by side.

Something old made to be new or something new made to look old. 

Vintage and Modern going hand and hand.
I like it that way.
