One of the funnest (funnest?) things about moving to a new house is scouring the Internet and stores for cheap, fun things that I think would just go perfectly in this room or that room. Here are my recent scores from a antique shop.
All for UNDER 30 BUCKS!! I loved the globe. It reminded me of the one in my 3rd grade class. The birds were a steal at 3 dollars a pop. And the cameras....that is just a given. I fell in love. More on where I put them later. Remember the ugly brass colored mirror above our fireplace? The color was bad but the mirror was heavy and in perfect shape. So I painted it.
PURPLE! I love the way it turned out.
It is in between the dining room and Micah's room. The wall was really bare. We don't have a hallway light and for awhile we just had this lamp on the floor. I found the table at Amazon.com.
The birds found a home by Mr (or is it Mrs?) Owl on my vanity table in my bedroom.
I have been spying this sign on Etsy for a very long time. What stopped me was the price. It was $65.00. I tried to figure out how I could make one. I thought maybe I could paint it. Or stencil the letters. Or even buy vinyl letters and put them on a distressed board. In the end I decided that I loved the sign exactly how it was. I don't think I could make it better. The words are us.
Especially the "Really Loud" part. (:
We are slowly making this place feel like home. We are loving it so far.
