It's Official I Have No Pride !!! Mandi Made me Do It.




Ok, so here's the situation.  I have lived in my house for nearly 9 years now in Beautiful Boise, Idaho.   I LOVE my house.  Most of my house - except for this one particular room - THE FAMILY ROOM!   From here on out I will be lovingly referring to the room as "The Man Cave".  




It is dark,  It is 20 X 20  (super grande) , It has three walls made of bricks (why??? I ask you) ,  It has one  remaining wall that is paneled.  It has these awesome blinds that cover the mini-a-ture windows! It does have darling pictures of my kiddos in it however!!! 




 In one corner are two desks people - that isn't OK for those of you that are wondering why I just called you people.  I work from home and it is needful but NOT Ok. 




There is a solution to all of this  but it requires a brain that has an eye for crap -  I know just the girl!    Have you ever ran across a sweet ole blog called Vintage Revivals.  Well, I have been stalking Mandi for sometime now and she is pure amazingness and she's a little spit fire of a gal to.  She's doing this AH-mazing giveaway where she will come to your house and makeover one of your rooms.  I think we will all agree that I need her to come and makeover "The Man Cave".  Mandi, this is the part where I kinda make my self sound needy -  I need your skillz girl -  in a bad bad way!  I've seen you turn crap into craptastic so many times - you're blowin my mind on a weekly basis.  Come to my house,  I can sew and I WILL help you - My Hubby has a garage full of tools that we could put to good use. 

OHHHH OH and did you see this sweet baby?  It is a family heirloom you know -  Let's make er over - whad-ya say!!! 



I Love your Guts big time!   JEN

OHHH p.s. I live a mile from the D.I. - I know!!!  I know!!

OH and just because I have to redeem my pride a tad bit and because my sisters have been dying to see my new piece of furniture -  Here is "MY" room/living room - thank the heavens above that this is the first room you see and not the Family room.
