I love Magnolia's. Have loved them since I was a little girl, I was thrilled when I met a Mississippi man and got to move to Mississippi where there were lots of Magnolia trees. I don't have one at my house but my dream home will have one!



Sorry it's blurry, I had to turn the flash off or it made everything look a different color. This is looking into the living room from the kitchen. My mom bought the plant in the corner when I was a teenager and when she saw what my living room was decorated in she gave it to me because it matched so well, it's red magnolia's.

This is standing behind the recliner looking towards the front door. The rug at the front door, in the living room and at the back door all match. They are from Wal-Mart. I got some of them at the Wal-Mart sample store, but the one in the living room was recently replaced because the iron got dropped on it and burnt it.

This is a recent purchase from Wal-Mart, I had a really hard time finding a clock that wasn't solid black, any other room in my house that would have been fine, just not in the living room.


This is from standing in front of the fire place. The lamps are new, I just got them at Gordman's a few weeks ago. I don't know where the tables are from because my grandmother gave them to my mom and then I got them, I know they have been around a while because I know my grandmother had them when I was in grade school.

This is from standing behind the TV, the couch is a micro-suede sleep sofa from Furniture Row. It is very comfy! The magnolia picture is my FAVORITE! I found it at Belk for half price last spring.

This is standing in the corner where the magnolia plant is looking towards the kitchen. If you notice the 2 pillows you see in this picture, I made both of the covers for them. I think all of the pillows came from Kohl's and I just made new covers so they didn't all match, the one on the couch has beads hanginf off of it.

This is from the hall looking into the living room. The recliner was a hand me down from my aunt, it leans sideways but it very comfy! The curtains are from Wal-Mart, I bought 1 panel and split it in half so it would fit my window.

This is standing in the corner where the end table is looking towards the fire place. Almost everything decorative on my mantel came from Elite Lamp Factory/Vintage Verandah in Marion, AR(back home).

This is one of our more recent purchases, we love it! We are not game junkies as it may look, the Wii is mine along with the Wii Fit and the Playstaion 3 is William's, as his Christmas gift from 2 years ago. He knew he was getting it, I sat at the sample store for 3 hourse for the day after Thanksgiving sale and bought it for half price what it would have been in the store.

Got the sign at Hobby Lobby half price, and it is so what I need when I have those down days, usually when I am studying. I do most of my studying on the couch in the living room and this is directly across.
