guest room with DIY burlap dust ruffle to go with the rustic theme
guest bed for all of you lovely people who will be spending many, many weekends here*cough cough Eleni and Berkeley*
shoe display (the rest of my shoes are sneakily hidden in the built in cabinet underneath all the pillows)
an ever-changing extra clothing rack that serves as a sort of a seasonal inspiration piece
I know that taking this long of a hiatus in the blogger world is simply unacceptable, but moving into the new house and getting acclimated has occupied way more time than I expected. By the time I'm actually done working for the day, I usually spend my nights having a few glasses of wine with the boyfriend while enjoying our new pad, then dozing off in this sleepy little town pretty early.
Anyway, I thought I'd give you a teeny tiny sneak peak into the house. I wanted to feature the guest/closet room first, as I'm sure that's way more interesting than a kitchen to all you fashionistas. We had to be creative with our closet space, as the house was built in 1910 and walk-ins didn't exist back then. With the help of my handy grandfather and understanding boyfriend, we made it all work.
Since I only had a few small closets to work with, I decided to display some of my favorite pieces out in the open to free up more space. I used the guest bedroom as a place to showcase some of my favorite pieces; the handmade, wooden rack displays my favorite shoes of the moment (as well as classics like my Louboutins), and the clothing rack (I can't believe I just got one of these - I'm OBSESSED) is filled with current trends and general themes I'm currently feeling. I plan on changing it out frequently - either by season, or just when a new wave of inspiration hits me. I'd like to think of it as a 3D inspiration board - plus, it helps me choose my outfits so much faster, as I tend to struggle with that at times.
Hope you enjoyed the tiny sneak peak, and I'll be able to give you a proper tour of the new place as soon as it's finished and worthy to show all you fabulous people. I've missed you!
