Kitchen/ Living Room/ Entry Way Reveal!!


So I am FINALLY ready to post pics of the upstairs after so many decicion changes and re-painting and "style-searching" from within myself. I was so lost for so long. Then I started watching HGTV and looking at all these fabulous blogs and I think I've finally found MY style. 
So, here are the 'Befores'... 

And for some reason, I commited this paint attrocity to my walls...Asian phase?? Ugh. And that awful fake tree?? Lame.

And here is the 'After': 

The style that I had in my head was sort of a "French-y, rustic style with a bit of Industial {pot rack, wood crate, sunburst mirror}
My husband made my WONDERFUL pot rack {complete with lighting}as an anniversary present last year. I was so in love with him for making this for me. ;)
If you are in the Utah area {Davis County} then go to: Tomseth.com and contact us for some wonderful CONCRETE countertops. For our kitchen, we did a faux Marble look and it turned out perfect! The flooring is also concrete, btw.
**Help NEEDED**
I'm not so sure about this {blue-ish}grey and green color combo...does it mesh well??
My hubby says he "likes" the green, but really, I think he just doesn't want to re-paint. I'm so stuck on what to do...

So...What to do up here...I feel it needs somthing just to tie it all together. Maybe some moss??? HELP!
 

I would love a Kitchen table that looks just like THIS one from RED HEN HOME. Wouldn't that be just SO perfect??!!






That empty frame up there will recieve a vintage map with pinpoints of our vacations together as a family.


Notice the tear in my newly re-covered barstools?? Yeah...that would be the work of my 4 year old...



I'm only 5 feet tall so please excuse the foot stool that I forgot to remove before taking this picture. ;) Also, that wierd, fake plant behind the chair will be removed promptly. ;)


Entry Way








Again...so in love with this backsplash!


My Lovelies


Disclaimer: These couches are NOT my first choice, but I have a hubby that loves them and prefers comfort above all else... If I had the green light, I would put these in the basement and get new couches in a heartbeat. But what to get??? I'm stuck on that too...


When buying fresh flowers every week is not an option, why not tame the crazy mint patch in the garden?!


Obviously, the frame wall needs to be filled...I'll get to that...
