White, Wicker and Quilts

I love the way this part of our living room looks when the sunshine comes streaming in so today I thought why not share it with you guys!

All of the white mixed with the wicker and wood looks so pretty with the bright sunshine on it.

I was so excited to find an antique linen pillow case on Etsy with a tan colored monogram on it. It is a long and skinny pillow case so I can use it folded over this way or long ways on a rectangular pillow. The chair slipcover and white quilt are both ebay finds.

Quilts in a basket are one of my favorite things and a staple in every room of our farmhouse. I am quite obsessed with my newest quilt that I bought at the Springfield Antique Show, it just begs to be photographed.

As far as what's been going on with house...Last weekend we got two walls of plaster and lathe down from the dining room in preparation to put the new windows in. And this week at night after the kids are in bed I have been removing the plaster and lathe from the ceiling. This is the area where the pellet stove was just to give you a frame of reference.

I can't even begin to tell you the amount of mouse, chipmunk and squirrel "droppings" that are up there and fall on me while I am doing it. It is all worth it though because the ceiling is going to look amazing once I am done! This weekend we are going to put the new windows in along the wall behind me in the picture above...can't wait.
