My Place :)

  • Jan. 15th, 2006 at 11:52 AM

Ok.. there are a bunch of pictures behind the cut. I'm warning you so I don't get any emails saying "Sheesh.. too many pictures". Just like the fact that there can never be too much cake, there can never be too many pictures :P




First off.. the bedroom. Please excuse the dark quality of the pictures. My room is DARK. The camera didn't handle it well.

Beddy bye

This is my bed! Typically it includes a husband and three cats all snuggled up. It's one of my favorite places.



Beddy bye again
Here's another one :)

This is my dressing table.. or as it's been dubbed, my shrine to girlyness.

upon closer inspection of the girly shrine, you'll see a picture of my kitten Lucy letting my husband worship her, pictures of my little girl (who's 16 now!) and some of my girly type stuff!

This is the dresser I repainted a few years ago. It's my little tribute to buddah...and it holds my stuff too.

My dresser again.

My favorite lamp.

My favorite kitty, Luncinda Jane.

My momma got me these. They're gorgeous! The frame is wood, then a purple mat, with a gold and red finish. They're from Thailand, but we found them at the Salvation Army store for $5 each. Woooo! (excuse the mess.. they're above my husbands dresser.. which is all guy like and messy.

This is the super expensive hairclip my mother bought me to wear at my wedding (had a fairy wedding, needed sparkles!) I hate leaving it in my jewelry box, so I came up with this as a good way to keep it safe, but display it.

OK.. this is part of my kitchen. I really wanted a red glass tile backspash, but I'm a renter and I don't believe the landlord would appreciate me doing a tile job. So, I bought two pieces of plexiglass for $6 each, then 3 peices of scrap book paper for .99 cents each. I sandwiched the paper (after taping it together) between the plexi and used a dremel tool to etch lines to look like grout (taped out a pattern first). Then I screwed it to the wall. It's not 'perfect', and I don't believe people will think it's tile.. but it adds alot to the room. Makes it much prettier :) And for $15 bucks and 45 minutes of work you can't go wrong.

Stove again




Sooo.. that's it. I'll take pictures of the breakfast nook and living room later. And when I'm done our new craft/sewing room I'll take some pictures of that, too.

Okay you have the exact taste I have ... have you posted all these pics on saucy dwellings ... I got here to your journal via saucy dwellings because of the "red tile" but now that I'm here I'm wishing you had these pics on the saucy dwelling site as well ... I HAVE to post pics soon myself ... now your place is SAUCY!

If you know how to LJcut then you should be able to do it ... I personally haven't mastered the LJcut ...

Hmm, your etching has got me thinking... what if one didn't etch grout lines, but etched a design instead?

I love that craft paper, btw.

I have a giant expanse in my kitchen between the countertops and upper cabinets and I'm dying to try this...
