I am hoping to find a red couch for our downstairs family room in the near future.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment (about the enchiladas). I used to make my filling with cream cheese in it too, but my son hates cream cheese & so wouldn't eat the enchiladas. So now I have to make them "plain".Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659968511488397366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419684017931883072.post-19902122180010034182010-10-08T12:46:29.811-07:002010-10-08T12:46:29.811-07:00This looks amazing.

As for pai...Love the grey with the yellow walls. <br /><br />As for painting what we have and making it work like 'new'...Just last night it came to me that the chairs I currently have will work with my breakfast table. I'd been contemplating them all along in a new color, but the scale was all wrong. Until last night at 2 am as I sat staring at them (couldn't sleep, lol) and suddenly I realized I could cut the back down a bit and they'd be just right! Grateful for the inspiration and equally grateful for my breakfast area now being reduced to the cost of a piece of glass for the table.

I love the armoire it looks outstanding and your family room I need that scarface wall hanging. We love Al Pacino movies. Wish we could meet him in real life. I also like the colors in your family room. That armoire looks good and looks brand new!

It covers pretty well, is dirt cheap and has that nice screw top lid with the pour spout.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12240265014246492961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419684017931883072.post-64811750835953897982010-10-06T11:14:11.367-07:002010-10-06T11:14:11.367-07:00Hi Manuela, it's always nice to drop by your p...Hi Manuela, it's always nice to drop by your place as you always have sweet and simple ideas for he home.
