September 18, 2021 – Let There Be Light

Sooooooo…I did a thing! #Shocker

It is so hard for me to sit down. If I am still for too long, I get this overwhelming feeling like I could make better use of the time doing something. I know…I should sit my narrow tail down sometimes, but I truly cannot help it. I know this is why I am always so vested in people. I just want to be of service and if I hear an inkling of where I can be, I’m jumping in head first. #ABlessing #AndSometimesABurden

Today was just another one of those days. #MoverAndAShaker #IfYouStayReadyYouDontHaveToGet Ready When I went on vacation a couple weeks ago, I set out to dress up my walls on the main level. I am not one for situated wall art, but I do love it when I see other people do it. I always think to myself, I should / could do that. Regretfully, I didn’t get to this task while on vacation because…well…vacation. I truly did minimal work and since this task required brain power, I happily postponed it.

Instead of wall art, I had it in my head to do some lighting to the right and left of the TV. Wall sconces is the proper name, I guess. I found some battery operated ones so that the job didn’t require any wiring. I didn’t really feel like watching the hubby cuss me out in his head AND I didn’t want more holes in the walls to run wiring. #WinWin

After some laser leveling top to bottom and side to side, and a trip to Home Depot for more wall anchors…Behold, I give you…wall decor!

Now, in the pictures the left sconce looks a little further away, but I promise it’s not. What we did learn, though, is that the fireplace is not centered on that wall. The hubby stared at it for a long time…cussing in his head…mad…beating himself up for not paying more attention to centering the fireplace before installing. #YouLiveAndYouLearn

Buuuuuuuut den…yes, I said it that way on purpose…den, I got real froggy and put my interchangeable wreath up. I will switch out with the seasons and holidays. I do this for my front door, but this time, I wanted something above the girls’ chalkboard. Now, I realize I need some lighting, so I am on the hunt for bats that eyes light up, buuuuuuuuuuuut…

Guess I will sit it down for now. Only God knows what I will create next!
