While I Was Out--Stephen Style!

A lot of what Jason helped Stephen with was rearranging what we already had of our own. In this shot, he added the pictures above the mantle and the large glass containers.
A new chair that we have been considering purchasing--I love the cute pillow. :-)

New pillows, lamps, and pictures

New pendant lighting and recess lighting--Stephen and Phil did an awesome job with this!

Jason traded out this monstrous table that I had picked from his store for this much smaller and more unique table.

OK, while I was in NYC living it up with my college girls, I had no clue that my sweet husband was at home, slaving away at a wonderful makeover of our home. We have been working on updating our home for a while now, and our most recent projects have included the help of a designer. (If you live in the Florence area, I can hook you up. He is wonderful!) Stephen surprised me when I returned by having finished out our entryway, dining room, living room, parts of our kitchen, and parts of our bedroom. I could not believe it! A big thank you to Jason and Phil for helping Stephen surprise me! And to top it off, Stephen was so cute about "the big reveal". He took me to a late Valentine's Day dinner at our favorite local Mexican restaurant. Then, he brought me home (I had not been in the house yet since returning from NYC) and he revealed each room to me one at a time with a toboggan over my head! Big time brownie points for this man! You would probably appreciate the pictures more if you had "before and after shots", but take my word for it, it's so much better! I have come to the conclusion that I am not good at putting things together and I need help! Jason pulled it together for us and I am so grateful! Thank you, My Sweet Stephen, for doing such a wonderful thing for me. Now, I must go, because I need to start figuring out how to build a deck. Any ideas?

Boy does Stephen get brownie points! Everything looks wonderful! I especially love the chandelier in the dining room. My favorite!!
