Home progress.

<div style="text-align: center;">For the last couple of weeks I have been in full nesting mode and our new place is finally starting to come along! Don't get me wrong, we still have a lot of projects and decorating to be done yet, but it is definitely starting to feel more like home now. This house has been super fun to decorate but also a bit challenging at times because not all of my pieces fully <i>work </i>in the space. As I'm sure most of you know, our previous house was decorated from floor to ceiling in strictly 1950's/60's furniture and decor but our current house has a much older feel to it, and some of the items just don't suit the design. Some of my favorite items I am still trying to work in, while others I am having to part with to make room for some new 1930's/40's additions. So far I am really liking the mix of eras, it's fun to try out new things and put a different twist on pieces that I've had for awhile. With that being said, here are a few peeks at what's happening around our new place:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
