When a sweet friend recommended that I enter the Fort Drum Interior Decorating contest, I decided I would go for it. It was good motivation to get a few things done that I was wanting to do anyway. Then, another friend with super photography skills so generously agreed to help me get some snaps of the house.
I was in Syracuse running errands and got a call from our Community Center telling me I could pick up my gift card. Hmmmm....I asked, 'Is this for the Interior Decorating Contest? Did I place?' She said, 'Oh, I am so sorry...I thought you already knew - you got first place ($500 to Pier 1)!'
The news totally made my day.
We were only allowed to submit five pictures. Sarah took some amazing shots, lots of incredible detailed ones. I am such a detail junkie, it was hard for me to not use all those shots, but given the few pics we could send in, I felt that they had to be of the whole room.
Here are the pictures that I submitted...
The Family Room...
Boys' Bedroom...
Dining Room...
Eat In Kitchen...
Living Room...
Small victories, friends.
