Red and Green, I love it! It really is a great combinaion. I know what you mean about going through all your stuff. I have been doing the same thing. I also am only buying what I really love and starting to weed out the a lot of stuff I have had for ages. The pieces I like now are more expensive too, but let's face it what isn't? I don't know I just feel the need to pare down a bit. It seems like I have a lot of things I am just keeping that I don't really use anymore or really even like all that much. Just used to having it I guess. Time for some changes.

thanks nancy .. i'm loving the RED!!! and it has been 'good' to take everything down .. lovingly clean it up and re-visit it to see what i can and cannot do without during this 'chapter' of my book of life! of course .. there is still TONS in the schoolhouse! oh darlin' .. youuuuuuu tooooooooo shall do this someday .. but meanwhile .. enjoy every little knick and knack .. i know i sure have over the years! and this is NOT to say i won't continue shoppin' .. (ha! jus' this week .. i got that wonderful schooldesk from luna . .the incredible EARLY washing machine from kathy .. and from glovers station .. i finally got my much wanted antique cast iron waffle pan. (i find the things i am mostly buying now are the more expensive things .. but i'm willing to let go of lots of the littles for some really special ones here at freedom valley. the only thing i have hung back up on the walls are PHOTOS!!!
well .. i best git back downstairs and go through another pile or twelve! xo

this is what it looked like AFTER the furring strips went on (to keep the buggies from taking up residence between/behind the boards!)
those big window frames will be dark forest green too .. i LOVE the red/green (christmasy combination!!!!)
ALL of this will be painted barn red!
