Phase 2 of The House Behind The Trees ~ The downstairs #TeelsBuildaHouse

on
So we are starting the downstairs ... I HATE to say basement because we had a basement in our old home, where you opened a door and went down stairs separated from anything else. It was a finished basement complete with a bedroom, craft room, family/game room and we spent a lot of time there ~ our oldest son moved down there in jr high and stayed through high school ... until we finished the master suite in the attic then he moved back up to the bedroom floor with his brother and sister.  So here our downstairs is open to the rest of the house, you can see through to the outside from the top of the stairs going down because we have a wall of windows down there as well.  We really didn't plan to have a kiddo down there but since we are having to do a switch-a-roo with rooms (I'll explain later) he is moving home soon and will be downstairs. Anyhoo, our downstairs will house our main family room, our middle sons room, a full bath and kitchenette.  I thought it would be fun ...

Eme's Room Re-Do ~ Mod Podge Table and Painted Dressers

on
As I mentioned and showed in another post (click here), I had a blast Mod Podging this old metal milk jug! After painting the top pink we couldn't be any more tickled at how this turned out! It is a perfect compliment to finishing off her reading nook.

Another transformation was her dressers ~ her very old dressers that happen to belong to me when I was little girl! It was dark, ugly "wood" that we had already painted white BUT to fit in with our new transformation. I painted the drawers pink, used Pottery Barn bin pulls in bronze and the doors on the tallboy dresser, have grosgrain ribbon ties in bows.
