I found this really cool piece of wood in the back yard laying up against the fence:) I know right?! Anyway, I thought it would make a fab headboard. I bought these clip on lights at Home Depot for $14.97, then I just hung one of my fav landscape pics:)
On the other side of the room sits one of my fav antique pieces ever. I had been eyeing this sweet old thing at FOUND for like ever. It begged me to take it home:) The crazy horn lamp was a hand me down from my sis in law, and the huge really cool chalkboard?
FOUND:) $260 if you want one for yourself:)
Oh! And in case you were wonderin....we kept the cats:)
Next up- the teeniest tiniest of bathrooms.
The rug and shower curtain are from Target.
I found this cute little shelf thingy at Sweet Salvage. Yeah I know, I only shop at 2 places.
Sweet and FOUND. My world is very small:) I think it was a whopping $35.
On the other side sits this old mantel/shelf thing at The Old Barn Antique Mall in San Juan Capistrano, CA a while back. Perf for hanging towels. And even more perf for hanging my necklaces when I'm too lazy to put them away:)
And that's all folks!! Yep, that's the nickel tour! Done and done.
And hey, if you think this little tiny has your name all over it- it's going to be available to rent come the first of February:) Let me know if you're interested!
I LOVED all the tours you gave of this charming house!! So pretty!!
ReplyDeleteJust perfect! The headboard you made is fabulous. We bought those same lights and put them above the bookshelves in my husband's office. They make the neatest designs on the wall above.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you gave us the rest of the tour! Your home (for now) looks beautiful! I love the touches of green everywhere! My favorite color too. :)
ReplyDeleteMy mom who lives in Oregon and myself (i live in chandler) have been long time blog stalkers of yours:) My parents are planning on moving back very soon. Can you send info on the location and monthly cost of the DARLING home! I am assuming Mesa? my email is owens19@cox.net THANKS!!!!! P.S. my mom is a total (OCD) neat/clean freak...she would be the ideal renter!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Stephanie!
DeleteI'm going to email you now:) Your mom sounds like the perfect renter!
hmmm... so the picture of the steps you posted ~ are they the steps of your new home?
ReplyDeleteThat house is adorable, I love it. I hope you find some great renter(s).
Oh ~ I'm so happy that you kept the kit-kats. How is Bully doing with them now? In time, they'll be best buds. ;)
Weeell, Little Bully still chases them all over the place. Hopefully someday they'll get along:)
DeleteI can't believe I have a bathroom that's tinier! Lol. Very cute tho!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you are moving on to. Please (pretty please) consider blogging on more than "tuesdays", you are my favorite that I check first thing. :-)
So excited to see what's coming up!

So charming! Dorie, I found you on Pinterest, and those pins of the Frenchies are beyond absolute cuteness!! My friends make fun of me for having a doggie pinboard, but oh well!! I'm super excited to see what's new :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

ReplyDeleteAvailable the 1st of February?? Oh the anticipation is KILLING me!
ReplyDeleteAH Ha Ha! So there is some big news coming! Can't wait to hear more. It's been nice to see how pretty a tiny can be, too!
ReplyDeleteDorie, I cannot get over how great it looks compared to when we saw it. Simply amazing! And now you're saying that you're going to have it up for rent next month? I guess we should be congratulating you on your new place! I can't wait to see what you do with the next one.

Amazing tours of the teeny tiny, love how you made it your own, thanks for sharing! I too am a fan of things that have had a previous use/life and really love seeing what you do with your finds like the open cabinet in your bathroom. Oh can't wait to see what you have in store for your next project!
ReplyDeleteDorie, No words....you're just awesome! And it's totally your fault that I just bought some old green books at Sweet Salvage! lol. Check out how great they look! http://www.jenkinskidfarm.com/2013/01/holy-mother-of-sweet-salvage.html And of course I had to mention you in my blog post.....cuz you just rock like that!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with whatever you're trying to work out right now! CANNOT WAIT TO SEE WHAT YOU'VE BOUGHT and will be fixing up next!
Thank you for the third part of teeny tiny tour. I've yet to check out the previous parts 1 and 2. By the way, it's messy to clean a chalkboard, how do you keep away the chalk dust from the room if you're going to scribble a different quote in it?
ReplyDeleteNice blog... thanks for sharing with us..
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty nice combo
