a room with a view...

I am a girl that you might end up hating at the end of this post.

I hope not though.

It's not my fault that this is the room that sold me my home...and if you've been reading this blog for a while...then you know that i posted on it once before.

I'm happy to tell you that this room is finally complete........well.......nothing of mine is ever complete...

so for now....it's complete....but in another year...it might change.

You are about to enter my favorite room of the house.....

my boudoir....{i hope that doesn't mean something like 'bottom' in french....because that for sure would not be very funny....nope...not at all.....}

While i was sick on my deathbed on Saturday....i sent my ...oh..so....willing husband to Ikea....{and don't "oh poor bryan" to me......he couldn't wait to get out of the house by himself...} to pick up this dresser. It's part of the Hemnes collection, and normally...i love a good solid vintage piece...but girls.....the door to my closet is teeny tiny.....so i had to have something that bryan could put together once inside the closet. It's a perfect fit.

....and yes.....what you see are more hatboxes......please don't scold me.

....and i found those fabulous vintage kitten heels at a flea market....unfortunatley...they are 22 sizes to small....

they actually fit Lola pretty well....

seriously....were all women like a shoe size 5 back then???

The walls are wood...and i painted them cottage white.....but some of the walls are lined with linen now...even the ceiling. The room is an A frame and we think it probably used to be a nursery or a tandem third bedroom.

I just want you to stop right here and let me explain the shoes.

They are not all mine.

I actually borrowed most of them from my friends just so i could fill up the shelves and the picture

would look o.k.

really.

kinda.

well......maybe most of them are mine and 4 pairs belong to bryan. .......but the reason it looks like i have so many is because i've never thrown a pair away.....

really.

kinda.

o.k....so i have a shoe problem.

I know for a fact that i am not the only girl here going to therapy right now....

okay.

i'm dealing with the problem.

seriously.....

remember the doctor took away my credit card.

I even love the scratched up painted wood floors.......though....painting them white.....is on my to do list.

so........

I just wanted to let you know...i did survive that horrific cold.....and it feels like fall here...already....eeek.

I don't know about you...but ..... I.love.layers!

and boots.....especially knee high boots......knee high riding boots.....knee high riding boots in plum....

Dang that Doctor....
