2011 Home Goals:
Today the Nester is having a party on sharing our home goals for this next year, which is perfect because I was planning on doing a post on this very topic! My to-do list for my home this year is a bit lengthy, but still quite do-able. We have been in our home 2.5 years now, and my goal is to “finish” all of the rooms. (Is it really ever finished?) My thinking is that if I post my decorating goals for mi casa on my blog, then it will further motivate me to carry those goals out. So without further ado…
Cleaning/Organizing/Misc:
- Get carpets cleaned
- Hold a garage sale in the spring (proceeds go toward my decorating goals :) )
Entry:
- Paint back of bookshelves (I’m leaning toward greige or Black Fox)
Living Room:
- Purchase this area rug
- New pillows for couch
- Hang brass sconces (I already own)
- Purchase this console (I am in love with this piece!)
Kitchen:
- Add under-cabinet lighting
- Fix the roman shade over sink (it’s sewn crookedly)
- Touch up paint on cabinets
{I die!! I am in LOVE with this room by Sarah Richardson}
Dining Room:
- Buy more Blue Willow plates to fill my plate rack
- Be on the lookout for an antique persian rug to go under DR table
- Recover DR seats with a great fabric (Chinoserie-inpsired with floral/peacock/birds and hints of blue, and coral)
Master Bedroom:
- Glam chandelier to replace existing hideous fan
Office:
- Find a solution for the existing fan
- Cover bulletin boards in fabric
- Rearrange accessories
Hall Bath:
- Make pelmet box for over window

So, there it is! I have my work cut out for me, but I’m excited to tackle these projects! I will posting the projects that ensue and pictures of progress!
