So I have a few things to show you since I've been too lazy to take pictures...again. Today we got some new sofa legs in the mail that we ordered from Uncle Bob's Workshop. I like them much more than the clunky ones that came with the Karlstad. I think these sofa legs are a little sleeker and sexier:
Here's a closer view:
They're oak with a medium brown stain. It's a bit darker than the other oak in the room but that's probably a good thing...don't want to get too matchy matchy!
We were away this weekend and I picked up a new pillow for our bed...at Bowring, of all places:
It's black felt and I like the texture of it. I like the drastic contrast of black on our white bedding. I haven't shown you the white bedding yet, so here's a look:
I bought it at Homesense when I was shopping with my Grandma a while ago. I think it's an awfully pretty duvet cover. I can't decide whether to lose the shams or not. When I bought the new black pillow, I was thinking I would just use that alone but now I think maybe the white pillows add a little something. Who knows? We are terrible at making the bed so most days it'll likely just be a messy duvet on the bed with pillows strewn on the floor.
I also need to show you my cute kitchen owl timer that a beautiful friend sent my way forever ago:
It sits by my stove...waiting for me to cook something! As do the utensils. It's adorable...Thanks NJM!
And lastly, take a look at the plants growing in my dining room:
They're pumpkin plants!!! The tiny things in the background are flowers...which may or may not make it! We'll see how this new adventure shapes up!

1. I agree the new feet are sexy... Can't remember the old old... But your living room is looking all grown up! Love it!!
ReplyDelete2. I love the pillow... If you came across a lime green one like it, hook me up!!
3. Who are you little colourful dude... Love how the owl has a smilly friend up above... The tools are always there calling you in... So cute!
Thanks NJM. And I'll keep my eyes open for a lime green pillow!
DeleteLastly 4. A pumpkin plant... How big will that plant get?
ReplyDeleteYou always inspire me to garden too thanks for that.
Lots of love.
I think pumpkin plants get pretty huge but you can sort of trail them where you want. I have 4 plants growing but definitely can't have all of them...I'll have to give a couple of them to someone else to plant.
DeleteI'm going to put 2 plants in one of the raised beds but nothing else since they need room. I guess we'll see how it goes!
Found you searching for some reviews on Uncle Bob's! Seeing your legs affirmed I want some for our Karl :)
ReplyDeleteOh PS. Are yours the Furniture Legs, 5-1/2", Round, Full Taper? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Alli! Sorry I never replied until now! I believe that's what they are. We're super happy with them, that's for sure. A pretty cheap upgrade for the Karlstad.
