Get Ready for the New Year

Christmas is over, and recovery time is now.  Yesterday, I did the traditional after Christmas sale.  I spent more this year than I ever have, but I bought some really neat presents for next year.  That is my M O (mode of operandi).

One thing I did discover, the Santa Key I talked about is a yearly thing.  I bought some with a totally different picture of Santa on them in porcelain.  I got each of the children one.  Waterford and collectible ornaments are all at least I/2 price.   So if that is what you give, now is the time to buy.

Now is the clean up and putting away of all those precious things.  I decided this year to pack things differently than I have in the past.  I will put the collections together better.  I guess my next trip out is for more containers.  Once everything is put away neatly, it is time to really clean the house.  As the trees come down, that area can use a really good vacuuming, wood work either washed well or painted.  In my case, it probably needs painting.  I really would like to have all my rooms painted this year, so I have to make a decision.

I have decided to change bedrooms around.  I am going to change the colors in the master bedroom, and the large guest room.  I am in love with pale turquoise.  So that is a definite.  I also love lavender, and what I call lavender blue.  In the large guest room, I will just switch the dust ruffles, as I use two on the large beds with high mattresses.  I will show you soon.  The duvet fits any king size bed, so everything I have will work.  I will need to make new cornices for each room.  If you haven't seen then, go to my website:  www.decoratorsworldinc.com.  I will say that the prices are changing on the first of the year.  There is not a limit on what you spend at the moment, even though the website says there is.  If it won't let you, email me at: NSado44959@aol.com.

Tomorrow, redoing my house.  First the plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
