Here are some pictures of the townhouse

As promised here is some pictures of our new home. I was able to take a picture of the Dining Room yet or any of the bedrooms upstairs, but this is what is completely done for now. Atleast it will give you an idea of where I'm living now. Hope you enjoy the stroll through our new home!


This is the entryway. I'm actually standing in the entryway facing the front door.


This is the staircase side of the entryway. This little piece has followed us from NJ. I bought it at a craft show many years ago.


This is the coat closet side of the entryway. We bought the console table, the 2 stick lamps and the beautiful painting from Haverty's. Megan helped me put the group together.


Here's a glance from the entryway through the eating/kitchen area through to the Living Room.


I think this is one of my favorite walls in the house. I love the fireplace! It's a gas fireplace, all I have to do is flick a switch on the wall-it's great! I still have an ironwork piece to put behind the bird of paradise plant on the right side, but other than that I think that side of the room is done.


This is the wall across from the fireplace. I was able to break up my long wall unit from the other house. I used 4 of the 5 pieces here. I'm glad this wall can accomodate my huge twig wreath that I had over the fireplace in the old house.


This is my reading corner when I'm not sitting in the one and 1/2 chair on the other side of the room. It is great I can sit in this chair and look out into the courtyard and watch all the little birds coming to the 2 feeders, birdbaths and fountain! It's great!


Here is my lovely kitchen. The kitchen looks right into the eating area and there is also a half wall into the living room. Very nice for entertaining.


This is the eating area across from the kitchen.

Remember the little iron bird bath/feeder I bought a few months back and painted? Well here it is in it's new home on my kitchen table. I found this runner with 4 matching placemats when I was packing. I had forgot about this set and I love it. Just perfect for summer!


To wrap up my tour I'm including a picture of my beautiful daylily that is blooming in the courtyard.

That's the end of the tour for now. I'll have more in a few days. Last night I made up the guest rooms, I just have to hang pictures in there. I also have to get the Dining Room just right before I show you that. Hope you enjoyed the tour so far! Have a great day!

  2. It looks beautiful, Sherri. I love the way you could separate the wall unit. Is the big piece next to the fireplace the center piece of the wall unit?

    Can't wait to see more pictures.

  3. Lynne-the center of the wall unit is the one to the left of the fireplace. We have our TV in that section on the top and the stereo on the bottom. It works out great!

    Thanks for the nice comments Cathie and Lynne!

  5. Honestly, Sherri! You've blown me away! I LOVED LOVED seeing your photos. You have done so much in such a short time. Wow! I'm embarrassed to show my rooms after seeing yours. Wow! You should be an interior decorator. Wait a minute...are you an interior decorator? You must be.
