Little Details…..

 

bath b

 

I’m constantly in awe of the bloggers 

out there who whip

rooms together in no time at all!!!!

Me on the other hand…..I seem to move at a

snail’s pace these days.

It seems like it takes forever to find all the right accessories

to finish a room?!?!

I did find this snazzy bottle of hand

soap the other day though while

browsing at TJ Maxx.

The bottle is glass and a very generous size…..

and it looks so

pretty sitting on

one of my old ironstone platters.

Now if I could only find the perfect rug……..

Have a great week!

Tap, tap,tap…….

That’s me…oh so patiently waiting to

move my

antique pharmacy cabinet

from the garage

where it has been for

the last 8 months into the bathroom.

However little details

such as painting

and installing the toity

are getting in the way!

*sigh*

Mine isn’t as fancy

shmancy

as these……. mine is from

Belgium,

from

the 1930’s?!?!?

French Kande

 

Restoration Hardware

Things are moving

along

on the hall bathroom

renovation.

All the bead board is up

on two walls.

We got the sink installed

late last night too!

These two cuties make

things

difficult.

They tend to get into

lots of

trouble when

mommy

and

daddy

are busy working!!!!

face like this?

Have a great week

More pillows…..

 

I decided I wanted a more

“fluffier”

look for the sofa the other day.

So, I made two pillows

with

ruffles for each side.

Then I decided I needed a smaller

pillow for the center

So I bought this cutie

from

Restoration Hardware.

I’m loving the fuller

“fluffier”

look for now!

Hope you are having

a

fabulous week!?!?!?

A little more paint…..

 

Untitled 2

I sort of feel like a madwoman painting

everything in

sight these days!!!

Or…….. maybe I’m just tired of seeing things

 I love sitting around collecting dust because I never found the

perfect spot for them?!?!?!

With a little tweaking and a little re-arranging

 I was able to fit several

things into my décor that

have

been stashed away.

This statue is one of those things……I bought it

a year ago thinking it would look

perfect in my dining room.

 However it was a really

dark grey

color and just seemed odd and

out of place where ever I placed it.

 It  then spent the spring, then the summer ……

which led into the fall and then eventually

winter on the covered porch.

Today I brought it in

and decided

to paint it. It took five different colors

of paint and a lot of

determination

to achieve the look I was after

but

eventually I did get there.

I placed a little crown on her head….

What shall I paint next?!?!
