My Favorite Room
In case you missed my favorite room of the house over at Kim’s Favorite Room Series a few weeks ago, I wanted to share my Keeping Room, aka “Mom’s Zone”.
Keeping Rooms are generally located right off the kitchen and back in the day it was used to gather the family and keep them warm, as it was close to the main heating sources of the home. But for me it’s a place to look out the window and enjoy nature from the indoors. The room is actually the reflection you see in our backyard pond.
A place to read the Sunday paper and drink my tea.
A place to meditate, look out the window and be thankful for what I have and for a room that is mine!
A place when girlfriends visit we can sit and chat.
Curtain details are here.
Occasionally when the mood is right I will invite my hubby in so we can sit back and appreciate all of the hard work that went in in constructing this room and the details that make it special to us me.
Simple, clean and quite, unfortunately that’s generally less then 1% of the time when the kids aren’t around.
See my table transformation here.
What’s your favorite room in your house?
