Another option for taking donations might be your local library! a library here has many fantastic free programs, like a teen clothing and accessories swap, an arts & crafts day/swap, jigsaw puzzle swaps, and even a refrigerator for excess produce. :)

Are the sconces for over the DR console? If so, I think a brass or other metal would look good besides the black.

I love your house and decor!

If the sconces are for over the console, I suggest not having them at all if you keep the lamp and decor. It looks a little too crowded with sconces.

Can the sofa face the fireplace with chairs on both sides? I think I'd like that better.

We did start with the sofa facing the fireplace but I sit on the couch all the time and I didn’t like looking at the blank wall and tv, now I get to see the view through the screen porch! Plus it feels more separate from the kitchen.

My husband will love the massive tv idea.

I know too well the shock of mint green. My next-door neighbor in WDM made that choice shortly before I sold my home. The trim was the color of your shed. Do you think he had a color consultant?

Hi Kjoy. Have you painted any samples yet? Is the painter able to get to you anytime soon?
