But recent progress has been made.
When I was down in SC a week earlier than juC, he finally painted our stairwell. Which means we finally put these pictures up, instead of having them just rest atop the entertainment center in our living room. Now when you stroll upstairs, you can feast your eyes upon our family. Just know The Wall o' Eternal Love is still a work in progress.
I will also let you in on a little secret. Post cards. Vintage post cards. They are my FAVORITE thing to buy at antique stores. When we were down in SC I got these that now adorn my living room entertainment center. The dates stamped on the back from when the people sent them are 1910 and 1911! The one on the right is inviting the girl it is written to on a picnic July 20th.
A while back, I found these in Virginia, but they are drawings of Charleston.
They adorn my most beloved newest addition.
My antique mantel. It is the most perfectest addition to our dining room. We bought it a few weeks ago, just finally mounted it Saturday, and I've rearranged the things on there about 5 million times. But I'll get it figured out eventually.
I'm definitely thinking no more than 2 years and we'll finally be done decorating, painting, and fixing our house.

There was an article in this month's or last month's Our State magazine (a North Carolina thing) about this man who collects antique postcards and I loved it.

We have lived in our house for 3 1/2 years and I am still not done. I have had plans for our stairwell and still haven't done it. Someday! I love the mantel and those postcards are really cool.
