The house we are "letting" in Ireland has some very interesting "art work" hanging on the walls. It's not exactly my style and it's something that has bothered me ever so slightly since moving here. For any of you who know me well, you know that I am constantly tweaking things around my house and think nothing of rearranging a roomful of furniture at any given minute. Not living in our own home with our own furniture and belongings has definitely put a cramp in my style. Until now.

I was sitting here the other day getting frustrated yet again that I can't really do any projects for this house, when a light bulb finally went off and I thought, why can't I? So, I removed the interesting pieces of "art" next to the front door, attached a note to remind myself where they belong, and put them away for safe keeping until our time here is through. And then I oh, so happily replaced them with my own newly purchased picture frames and pictures of my favorite people. It sure doesn't take much to make this girl happy.

Looks great. The personal touches are the ones that help make your house your home.
