There are many reasons why we love our new neighborhood. This morning was a great example. We got to watch this from our front steps.....
It was so cute!On to the bathroom. This is the main hall bathroom. We love the tile work and decided to keep it. (Although, if you know where I can search for vintage tiles, let me know. There are a few cracked ones, that I would love to replace.) Here are the before pics.....
Even though I love a pedestal sink, we wanted to add a little more storage in here. We got the simple black vanity at Home Depot. I originally thought I would go with color in here, playing off of the aqua tiles....but I decided that contrasting the aqua and pulling the black and white from the floor would be a more classic look. I already had the fabric that I used on this window. I just used it to cover a cheap neutral roman shade that I already had.
The front bedroom is Meg's new Big Girl Room. It was a pretty cool room to begin with. Big, with great windows. Basically the refinished floors, new light fixture, and new texture and paint on the walls, were all it needed.
I love the mirror on her closet door. Wish there were one in my room.
These pictures loaded in backwards order, but I took this pic because you had to see a close up of this sweet girl. Since we have been staging homes and living the gypsy life the past year and a half, I had most of our family portraits packed up. It has been like Christmas getting them all out and on display again. It reminds me of how much she has changed and grown up.
Another piece that I bought at a thrift store. I am to lazy tonight to find the original picture of this dresser, but I posted it a while back. It was dark wood with brass hardware.
She loves her Big Girl Bed.
We have ordered new blinds for the whole house, but they are not it yet. I haven't decided whether or not to leave the windows and let the pretty trim show or to do window treatments.
