We've been living in our house for 2 months. And tonight I finally had the ambition to hang some pictures on the walls.

I decided to take some inspiration from some of the other blogs I read and do something a little different and out of my usual comfort zone.

So here's the before shot of our foyer, taken on the day we moved in to our house:

And here's some shots of tonight, just hours after I got out my hammer and nails.

A little more of a close up. As you can tell, I had some blank frames that need some artwork to be added into them. And I may just have to dig around to see what other things I can find to hang in some of the open spaces on the wall.

 Here's a close up of one of the frames that actually has some artwork in it. These are actually cards I bought in Charleston during my first trip there with Erik a few years ago. I loved the sketched artwork of the houses and gates. And I love Charleston. So this is a great reminder of the times I have been lucky enough to visit this amazing city.

And here's some pics of that first trip we ever took there... just a couple of weeks after getting engaged.

So now, every time I walk through my front hall I have a little piece of Charleston with me. Makes me want to plan my next trip there.
