I have been so inspired and motivated by getting finished with the living room, that I am moving on.....
Moving on to do a little more "refreshing" in other rooms of the cottage, that is!
Today, I went out to Kohl's, in order to use a 30% off coupon I received in the mail before it expired. I think that place was the most packed I've ever seen it.....guess it is all the end of summer/back to school sales! But, I strolled right past the clothing department......and scored big for the bathroom!
I'm so proud of my bargains - I've gotta toot my horn a little!
Four bath towels....
Four hand towels....
Cotton bath mat....
Shower curtain....
AND
Set of full-size, super soft microfiber sheets for the guest bedroom.
*****************
Total cost after sales and discount - $108.75, including tax.
Not to mention, I got a $10 off coupon on my next purchase. (Kinda like Kohl's cash, but a little different.) At any rate, I have through the end of the month to redeem it, so their gimmick to get me back in the door will definitely work!
I've been laundering up towels this evening; got the new shower curtain pressed and hung. Can't wait til daylight (and I get the placed cleaned up) when I can get some photos to share.....
I also found time to cover the seats of the chairs at the dining table. I've been meaning to do this for a long time.....and I found the fabric a couple of weeks ago, when I was actually out shopping for some living room items. As I prowled through the clearance bins at the fabric store, I found the "gingham" style fabric - soft, buttery gold and a green that was nearly a perfect match for the color on the walls in the kitchen and dining area. At $9/yard and 60 inches wide, it only took about a yard to cover the seats of all four chairs.
Here's a little sneak peek at how they turned out. I love how my favorite table runner still works with this new fabric......
And, in between it all, I found time to show a house this afternoon!

I definitely feel a sense of accomplishment as I get ready to crawl into bed tonight! Can I accomplish as much tomorrow? I guess we shall see.....
Feeling blessed......
