Show Us Where You Live - Bathrooms

This Friday Kellys Korner is having another Show Us Where You Live party and the theme is bathrooms. This was just the push I needed to get mine cleaned. We have three in our home. The first three pictures are of our guest bathroom.









Below is a picture of my girls bathroom




Here is the entrance to our master bathroom.







This is my sink/side. I still haven't figured out what to do with the niche, don't really know why it is there. I need ideas!

Wendy is AMAZING and is a constant inspiration to we the Enchantresses 3!:) Remember all the thrifty treasures I picked up last weekend for under 10 bucks? Well, here is what I have done with them so far.

My Gardens Gate

I am linking this post to Kimbas linky party over at A Soft Place To Land When we bought our Casa here in The Land Of Enchantment a few years ago, it did not have this courtyard. Luckily I have a hubby who can fix or build anything, so he added it on last summer! I love my little courtyard/ garden and have been trying to make it my little desert oasis. We have been searching for a gate for some time, and finally found a little shop that made this custom gate for us!
Here is how she looked when they dropped her off.

Hubby beat her up a bit to give her some charm.


and used a grinder to give her some character.



The girls helped him stain her.


and then hubby added the hardware.


Isn't she a beauty? Excuse our landscape (or lack there of) We live out in the middle of nowhere ya know!

Here she is lit up at night. I still haven't found the perfect pottery to put in my niches. But I think I love her!

Lets give a cheer for my beautiful new courtyard/garden gate !!!!!! Yea gate!

Isn't She Pretty?

While at my parents house this past weekend, the Queen Enchantress and I did some spray painting! Mom and Dad are in the process of remodeling their whole house, and when I saw this beauty again I thought it needed a little remodel of its own. Isn't she pretty? I just loooove chandeliers and wish I had one in every room of my home! We took inspiration from Enchantress#1(big sis) and this previous post. Here is the beforeAnd here is the after. I think it looks amazing. Mom says she likes it (don't know if she is telling the truth,) and Dad is just happy I saved him hundreds of dollars in buying a new chandelier. What do you think?

Late To The Party

Sarah over at Thrifty Decor Chick (One of my very favorite blogs ever) had a Goodwill/thrift store linky party on Monday. I was out of town visiting the Queen Enchantress, so I missed it. But, I am going to link up late! While on my little get-a-way I dragged the Queen Enchantress aka Mom to all the little thrift stores they have in her little town and we had a blast. One of the stores was having a half off of everything sale, so I got all of these treasures for about 10 bucks. Stay tuned to see what I do with them! Thanks Sarah for having an awesome party!

Frugal Friday!

I am linking up to the ShabbyNest for the Frugal Friday Linky Party. I LOVE that blog, and totally copied Wendy on this idea! I found these little canisters at Goodwill yesterday for 1 buck a piece. Added some spray paint and numbers and...........


This is the finished product. I put them in my laundry room, and love how they look!



I also found these today on clearance at Hobby Lobby.




LOOOOOVE it. I think I spent a total of 2 something on all of them!

Show Us Where You Live- Kids Room

I have been so excited about this weeks Show Us Where You Live Party at KellysKorner because my girls room is my favorite room in my whole house! I still haven't figured out how to move the pictures around after I upload them, so they are not in order.


The first picture is looking out of their room. I eventually want to get a pink chandelier to hang in their entry.




Some fun artwork. My cute mom-in-law has been my Pottery Barn hookup over the years and it has been amazing! She also helped me paint this room. I really lucked out in the in- law area!





OK, so here is the room as you first walk in.


Below is looking to the right. My favorite company ever Vinylsilhouettes created the wall vinyl of my princesses -- Sisters, sisters, never were there ever such devoted sisters...








These are the pictures Vinylsilhouettes used.





This is their dresser top. Thank you Lisa/Pottery Barn! The only thing my mom-in-law didn't hook us up with is the cute owl I saw peaking at me at Goodwill the other day. I fell in love with him and had to bring him home. He was only 1 buck!








This is my favorite part of the room! I just smile with glee every time I walk in and see this! Welcome to my fairy wonderland! Those fairies are my actual babies! Is that not the most



A-W-E-S-O-M-E thing you have ever seen? Squeal!!!!!!!!!




This is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to any wall of mine!



Vinylsilhouettes made this fairy dream out of pictures I took and e-mailed them!




My two fairy princesses!






Theses are the pictures that were used!




Thanks for touring my girls room! I feel so happy when I walk in there, couldn't wait to share it with all of you!
