    Thanks, everyone!

    The floors were put in by my hubby and oldest son. They are a snap and lock type and oak. (Home Depot). The hanging light is also from Home Depot and my hubby hung that, too. The rug is one that we bought in 1987 at an estate sale soon after we got married. We hadn't used it in years because we had carpet, but I loved that rug and wanted to use it if we ever had hardwood floors again. The moths did a little damage to it over the years and it's had paint spilled on it from my daughter doing her art work...
    Hubby made four of the chairs in high school, and I think he is just very talented in that department, I sure don't remember guys doing that in our high school shop class!
    Plants are from Aldis and Home Depot, and Minnie Mouse is from the Animal Humane Society ...

    I can't believe how much I love that room now!
