it was time to redo the living room table, but I wasn’t quite ready for the full-on Christmas ornaments…

once I thought about it for a while and decided to fill the four sections with some of my “favourite things” I sat and made a list of what those things were to me at the moment, lol…

my list included: family, friends, garden, flowers, books, animals, nature, photography, holidays, technology, rocks, seashells, and crafts…

so I went around the house and found items that represented all of those things… after putting a red and green tablecloth in the bottom I found spots for all of the things…

I’m pleased with how it turned out;-)…

time to update the living room table…

I decided on sarongs in each square and then books from various trips for me to enjoy during this birthday month…

ran the sarongs through the wash to get rid of any wrinkles and then filled in the squares… went with purple and orange… purple for me, and orange for my daughter, with whom I went on many of the trips, lol…

looks bright and fresh and I have lots of special moments to enjoy;-)…

carefully…

redid the living room table on Thursday…

usually for the holiday season I’ve filled it with glittery purple, silver, and clear ornaments…

this time I decided to change up the display…

first I found a nice piece of fabric and then a a collection of some of my favourite ornaments which would usually be hung on the tree but instead went into the drawers…

I took the glass off the top of the table and filled it with the ornaments before carefully putting it back on…

then three sleighs were set on top… looks good…

I have had this six piece sectional couch for close to thirty years (according to my daughter)…

it had resided in the living room, and for the last number of years, in the basement family room…

a few years ago I brought up three pieces for the living room again, as the hide-a-bed was moved into the den…

in the recent decluttering process downstairs, the three remaining pieces needed to find a new home… two came up to the living room and one was already in the back storage room… the living room was overflowing, lol…
