Hello friends, and thank you for all of your sweet comments on my first post in the little tour of my house. It's fun to have you all "over" thanks for stopping back :)
So this is where we left off after our little "Entry/Sitting Room" post...if you missed it and you'd like to peek back you can see that post HERE.
So if you're all ready...we'll head into the "Great Room"...and since there are tons of pictures, I'll keep the "chatter" to a minimum and let the pictures do the "talking".
"The term great room denotes a room space within an abode which combines the specific functions of several of the more traditional room spaces (e.g. the family room, the living room, the study, etc.) into a singular unified space. Great rooms are typically at or near the center of the house, feature raised ceilings, and have been common in American homes since the early 1990s."
So a "Great Room" it is :)
It was actually harder than I thought to photograph...so here's the big picture and than I'll take you around for a closer look at all of my many vignettes around this rather large open space.
Ahhh...this is still the best seat in the house :)

I made this light out of an old empty radio box...you can see that post HERE on JunkMarket Style.
Ahhh...this is still the best seat in the house :)
A sign made by my friend Joan...we'll be sharing a booth (along with Larry of the Country Junk Sale) at the fall Flea Market Under Glass Event.
We "gussied up" these chippy architecure pieces for bookends.
Perfect...
These XL glass jars have been all over the place...sorry, I didn't iron my runner for you. Does it make you feel better to know I would probably forget to do it for "real company" too???
Love them sitting on these rusty old saw blades..."one man's trash...", literally :)
And this door will lead you to my porch which I showed you HERE.
You might also remember this special hutch and little house from my Sentimental Junk Post way back when...as you can see, I've simplified quite a bit since then. It's my goal to "simplify" my decorating...but as a life long collector, it's really hard for me!!! Maybe some of you can relate? Baby steps :)
We took down my great-grandfather's ski's and added this old screen door.
Chippy-licious...just how I like it :)
So that about covers it for the Great Room...hope I haven't lost you :)
We'll move on to the kitchen next...and it's so teeny-tiny it's almost not worth showing...but I will :)
