My new curtains and thanks for the suggestions and Abbey too!

Okay I had to add this picture of my little Abbey girl, she went and had her hair done today and they had this sweet dress and a matching leash and she couldn't leave without it!!(; It has a pink bow and pink pearls around the collar and lots of ruffles. She is posing for the camera, I think she knows how cute she looks! Julie even put a pink bow with a pearl in her hair to match her new dress!
Well last week I had aked for some suggestions from all of you about my living room, I was just bored with it and thought maybe someone could come up with a good idea that I had not thought of yet. Some of you suggested lace curtains and last night I went to Target and found the Rachel Ashwell lace curtains on SALE, they were $13.00 a panel, not to bad right, I was so excited and I got the last 4 of them and I had to go to 2 different stores to get them. I Love it, what do you think? I keep imagining my Christmas tree up, I can't wait. Thanks everyone for all your help and thanks again LeAnn for the rearranging idea, it is nice for a change!

  4. Well first of all, I showed a picture of Abbey to Jackson and I think he is in love..........

    I love the lace panels. I actually used to have some of those. I think with your big window you needed them. They really added a lot. I give it 5 stars!!!

  5. Hi Kelly,
    I think that looks wonderful! And on sale too, extra wonderful! and your little Abbey... adorable, Had I told you that I have an Abbey too? Why wouldn't we both have a dog named Abby. Yep we were certainly taken from the same hospital ward.
    She is darling.
    Love it all!
    Maybe I should start calling you sis.
    Hugs

  6. Abbey is the most precious thing I have ever seen. My Maggie is such a tomboy cairn terrier, that you can't even put a bow around her neck. The lace panels were the perfect touch for your living room. Have a wonderful day.

  7. The window looks wonderful Kelly. I think that is what was missing. It really softens your large window and your tree will shine nicely thru it. I love seeing the lights thru my curtains when I pull in the driveway at night. I wish we had a Target in Canada, I love checking out their shabby chic line online. Take care.

  11. Love the lace curtains. It is perfect for your home. I think it warms up the window and softens the whole look. Don't you just love when you find the perfect item for your home. yesterday I bought two more lamps for my Dining room. you know my theory you can never have too many lamps,pillows or mirrors. It is the need for light I guess, haha. Hugs Kathysue

  14. Pretty, pretty! Where did you get the pink stuffed rocking chairs?

    Your parlor is really pretty.

    Did you buy the basket of flowers like that or did you arrange them yourself?

    Blessings,
