ROOM ON A BUDGET

Ponder this masterpiece:
 
 
This room by Jamie Meares of Furbish inspired me to start a new series, ROOM ON A BUDGET.  I take rooms me spectacles are particulary attracted to and try to recreate them in a more $$$ friendly way.  Or at least try my bestest.  My first attempt:
 
ROOM BUDGET
 
Paint ze walls red.  Any dark shade by Sherwin Williams will do.
Curtains: from IKEA for $50 paired with roman shades from Overstock for $30.
Custom pillows by MISS BLUEBONNET: inquire for pricing.
Nightstand: again from IKEA for...TEN DOLLARS. Yes your eyes read that right.
Furbish lamp: this is a splurge for the room & can definitely be replaced. But I just love this lamp.
Ginger jar: MISS BLUEBONNET
Moroccan pouf: on eBay ranging from $30 to $100
Rug: Home Decorators for $399-- STEAL for a rug. That is an amazing price and apparently is really soft/sturdy.
Cow rug: These are usually around $200 and up but try Craigslist and eBay. Í've found tons on there for great prices.
Vintage Eagle mirror: Again try eBay and CL!
 
And there you go! For a total master bedroom redo these are phenom prices.  Plus the original room used $$$$$ fabric and furniture pieces.  Thanks for helping me kill an hour of my day.
 
xoxo,

SCONCES & SUCH

Image
Let's take a quick look at the bathroom shall we? Subway tile = good, real gooooood. And we made a startling discovery when we ripped up the bathroom floor..... Awesome white vintage tile....seriously- why would you ever cover that up?! Unfortunately we couldn't salvage it since the previous owner had damaged a lot of them or we def would have! That's all the pics I have for you today since everything else is taped off in preparation for wallpaper install. SO let's begin with some random thoughts. I want  this sweater: I shall be adding this to the new shop : minty fresh In exactly two short months, we'll be here: Sconces were decided on for said bath thanks to Amber's blog : Hmmm, I think that's about it. Oh yeah and diets still suck. Have a lovely Monday. xoxo ryann

WORRIED MAMA

I have a confession:  I had my first pregancy freak out. Ok that was a lie. This is my second or third. But this time was a little different.  EVERYTHING is perfectly fine thank goodness. But over the past few days I think I had my first ''am I ready'' breakdown.  It all started yesterday afternoon with Finn.  She came into the house from outside with blood all over her paw. I started cleaning it but then it would gush all over again-- cue freak out.  Instinct kicked in and I immediately put the other two dogs away and started getting Finn ready to go to the vet.  Picture a pregnant woman trying to control a 92 pound dog on a leash by herself.  This might seem easy to some people but Brett ALWAYS takes care of this part.  We go to the vet together but he holds her, gets her in the car, gets her out, keeps her from other dogs at the vet, etc etc.  This part scares me.  But I had to manage so off we went.  I finally got her int...
