Finally. It arrived. In a box that was half the size of my living room.
And man! it was a 3 fingernail (meaning, that's how many I broke) job getting it out of that stinkin box!
But how CUTE is it!! It's the Claudette headboard from Ballard Designs. I went with the darker wood because I thought the white would just look too blah in here:)
This room is tiny, so I wanted to keep it super simple. And a BIG thank you to Rob at Matage Framing for fixing my fav cow pic that got broken during the move:)
Speaking of broken.... :(
In my excitement to put the headboard up and not wait for hubby to get home, I broke mr. birdie:(
Hubby came home, re-doweled him and saved the day:)
The deets:
The large pillows are Ballard also.
The duvet is IKEA
The lamp and topiary are from FOUND
The dresser I found at Eclectic Monkey- this fab thrift store on Main St. in downtown Mesa. It already had that perfect worn finish and it was $35!! Score!!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I sure did! We spent the entire week in DP with the kids and Little Bully:)
That of course means, I just came home on Sunday to a house full of Fall decor:(
The only Christmas I got goin on here is this cutest little thing that came home with me:)
I'm going to get out the Christmas goodies and dig deep into the creative side of my brain, because decorating this tiny is going to be a challenge!
Awwww, I love the headboard! It's darling! Can't wait to see your Christmas! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI have stared and stared at that headboard. That deeper color is prettier, isn't it? The room is beautiful...you've done it again. As always I look forward to Tuesdays with Dorie. :)
ReplyDeleteI had to come back and tell you that I like the way you put the art to the side instead of over that pretty headboard.
ReplyDeleteI just adore your new headboard! Thank goodness you were able to save the birdie that broke off too. I would've just died! Love the cute pillows and the amazing dresser that I can't believe you only paid $35 for!! That is the cutest little Christmas decoration too. i can't blame you for scooping that up! Looking forward to seeing your Christmas decor throughout your sweet bungalow.
ReplyDeleteThe room looks really beautiful!! I love the Ballard headboard too!

Hi Minda! The little figure is Lori Mitchell. You can search and find a store close to you that carries them. There are sooo many cute ones!!
DeleteI am OBSESSED with your blog and with your insane amounts of talent (and your hubby's too). Loving seeing all your new finds that you're getting for the new place. I've wondered though (I hope this isn't too nosey/rude) what happened to all of your other stuff (I'm sure plenty is in storage), but did you get rid of a lot too like your old gorgeous green headboard?
ReplyDelete-Autumn
Nosey? Rude? Never!! :) The green headboard (not old, I bought it at Urban Outfitters) is tucked neatly in storage along with a ridiculous amount of boxes that at this point I have no idea what's in them!!
DeleteI'm with Autumn, you have insane amounts of talent! I was also wondering what happened to the rest of your stuff.
ReplyDeleteMindi
You girls make me laugh! Ok, the woman that bought my house also bought a lot of my furniture:) The rest of the furniture is in storage:)
DeleteSounds like I need to make my way to that Monkey store. Goodwill's around the valley have been doing nothing but disappoint lately. I love the headboard. I even like it without the bird ;)
ReplyDeleteIs that the queen size Ballard Claudette headboard? I've been considering getting it. How tall is it? Looks gorgeous. Love what you've done with the room.
ReplyDeleteI love your tiny home. You've done a great job utilizing space. There is a website you might enjoy called thesmallhousecatalog.com. This husband & wife team love building small houses and they're green. Thank you for your blog and I will visit often.
