More Little Changes

We've been doing a lot of little things here and there to make our house feel more our style. The sconces in the hallway weren't awful, but they weren't awesome either. Replacing them was inexpensive and quick.
Before:
After:

I was a little bit stumped about what to put above our bed, but then Carol and I saw a whole bunch of really cool crosses at Hobby Lobby. Most of them were on sale (yay), so we decided to buy a bunch and spray paint one red, and one white.
Before:

After:

Some are ceramic, some are poly-resin (I think that's what it's called), one is metal, and there's one wood one. Aren't they pretty?

Our house is almost done being painted, and I CAN'T WAIT to post photos of our new colors! Having the ceilings painted white (instead of tan) makes SUCH a huge difference. I'm so excited to start putting things back up on the walls.

Cute! Good idea on changing the colors. I also like the bench on the end of your bed!

Sarah, I'd love to!! I'm not sure if you could afford me, though. ;) Just kidding... I'm not official, so I can't charge a thing. Hope you're well!

I love the crosses. Your room is beautiful, and very comfy (especially that bench!)
