I've been so obsessed with avoiding Hoarderhood that I've forgotten to post anything on my blog in WAY too long. I have been mildly absorbed with getting rid of excess stuff and making my living space more liveable. My room has been a source of embarrassment for longer than is mentally healthy, but no longer....Want a tour! I've been making plans to do some cool decorating in my boudoir. Let me explain a bit so you understand....Like I said, I live in my Grandma and Grandpa's old house. My Grandpa (bless his heart) was a cowboy, and an amazing innovator and being such, some stuff in my house is beyond interesting. Take my bedroom for one. He wanted to have a master bathroom so he went about creating one.....kind of. He had several small closets in the room so he simply modified them to accommodate bathroom accoutrements! I have a wonderful walk in shower right behind my bedroom door. And in the back of my bedroom in a very narrow former closet, I have what I refer to as my water closet.....A toilet and a generous towel cupboard! But the thing that probably is strangest is the bathroom sink on one of the walls of my bedroom. I guess he ran out of spare closets. I loathe the sink and vanity, they are UGLY!!! But, genius struck and I know what I'm going to do. I was given an antique cabinet thing which I'm going to turn into my vanity complete with an artful bowl sink and faucet. I may have to live like I'm in a motel, but it will be a stylish motel!
Tomorrow I'm off to crop 'til I drop with my fab group of friends, that should inspire some creativity for sure. Look for some interesting things from my bag of tricks next week.
I'll leave you with a cute picture of my furry baby....Alexander......

ReplyDeleteI'll charge up the camera battery and take a few pics so you can see what I'm up against in my quest for beauty! Trust me, it's a work in progress! But, I have the fabric for the curtains coming down with my daughter's roommate.
