Vintage Hunt

There's something about getting a few great deals that just puts the smiles on our faces! This is Brie'ann, me, and Ian in the back of a truck with some vintage chairs for me & and a cabinet with a radio & turn table that will be Brie's new tv stand! We got theses goodies and more on Saturday while venturing around Metro Detroit. :)

 

the loft gets some elbow grease

This summer, with the help of my wonderful hard-working hubby Ian & my dad, aunt, & cousin, who came 800 miles to help me, the loft area finally got the attention it deserved. It took several trips to Home Depot, Ace, and the like, along with a lot of brainstorming, but in a matter of days, I ended up with dark wood floors and a new wash cabinet. In time, I got new paint as well!

When I first began to use the space, I set up the room as above, but it evolved as the weeks went on

Eventually the carpet went up

And bamboo flooring went down

Great ideas for vintage luggage!
