Making changes in 2017

I loved the shimmer and sparkle

of my nest during the Christmas season

But all good things must come to an end.....

So New Year's Eve we celebrated

the end of an awesome year

Goodbye 2016

AND WELCOMED 

of course the beginning of a new year

means taking down the Christmas decor

and putting your house back to normal

BUT WAIT, WHAT IS NORMAL?

AND WHERE DID I PUT 

THE NORMAL "STUFF"?

AND IF I FIND IT,

WHERE DOES IT GO?

If you are under 50, 

you may not have this problem. 

However, if you have aged 

(like a fine wine)

Grown in wisdom 

(and a few other places)

And have that crown of silver hair 

(isn't silver the new blonde?)

YOU JUST MIGHT UNDERSTAND!!

Well, what's a gal to do?

RE-DECORATE OF COURSE!!

......and that doesn't mean spending money 
on new things.  Use what you have!
I love pulling pieces from storage
that I haven't used in a while.  
  
It's a great time for CHANGE!

Move decor pieces around.
Move furniture around.
It will look fresh and new to your eye.

The New Year is the perfect time to give your
nest a new look.  After all, it's a fresh start
for you and your home.

  Here are a few of my recent changes

Gone is the shimmer and sparkle of Christmas.  I've replaced it with a clean fresh look.

Decided to pull out my tea cups and display them.
Each one has it's own story.
They bring good memories from past times.

I'm not through mixing it up around here!
I'll keep you posted on my Nest's new look.

...and while I was busy re-decorating

Lacy Mae was busy keeping an eye 

on her property

"Well someone's got to keep an eye on this place"

Next I'm on to planning our Spring trip

to the Big Bend area of Texas

If you have been there and have

advice or suggestions 

please leave comments!!

Every Little Birdie says

Happy 2017 y'all!
