I have been doing a lot of decorating here at the farm house. This house (a small and simple 1890 farm house) is by no means my dream house. However, it's been a fun place to experiment with decorating on a budget and I haven't been afraid to try techniques I might be afraid to try in my final home. Also, I have been decking out the entire place equestrian-style. Why not? My husband and I hosted Thanksgiving at the farm this year, which motivated us to have the place ready in time. Recently, I decorated my dining room in silver and grey with an equestrian theme. There are still a couple of projects left to complete. I have a French-style arm chair I plan to upholster in dapple gray fabric. I may use some stirrup leathers as curtain tie backs, and we plan to build an oak farm table out of salvaged 120 year old boards from our barn. I also might consider a rug. Until then, I put together a gallery of what I have done. I also have included some "before" pictures. Keep in mind that this house was in tear down condition when we bought it. It's come a long way!
