Introducing - Mi Casa!!

Okay, so I will have to work on my photography skills but .... here we go. Please keep in mind 90% of the decor is either donated, garage sale scores, or Goodwill purchases ( I am an addict of Goodwill ).

The bathroom view from the door - complete with a washer and dryer. I left out the toilet view and tub view (I can post upon request).

View of the Zen Room from the door - Please note all doors are off the kitchen. Entry way door, bathroom door, my bedroom door, Zen Room door. The walls are a hot chocolate brown which the paint store liked to call "Beef Broth" - I prefer Hot Chocolate.

Like how the pictures all came out so dark? Yeah, me too - NOT.  My curtains in this room are a story in themselves - I will post later with all of my craftiness in detail.

The fan - seriously $5.00 at St Vincents!! The real deal too!

Chair came with the house - all else - Goodwill!

Now for the kitchen - landlord's only stipulation? I don't paint over the very ugly wooden cupboards. They aren't so bad until you notice the Royal Blue 1/2 inch counter top! I have made the best of it though and am kinda loving the color scheme.

My fridge with quotable quotes, pictures of cool people, and my ode to Oliv-i-derci on top. Have I mentioned I miss her much? Well, I miss her more than much.

Now, we have made our way from the kitchen into the living room. You can see the back door, bathroom, bedroom (kinda). I like the little bar area, not for drinking but for filling my cobalt blue bottles with fake flowers and calling it LOVELY!

Living room, see the "M" pillow? That will be part of the next blog on crafty Michelle. Auntie Helen, you know her right? She came to visit and "helped" me redecorate and arrange pictures - thank goodness!! That is a real honest to goodness fireplace. It will be replaced with a new one by Thanksgiving.

The other view of my living room. I promise to take some better pictures with a little more detail later. Maybe.

There you have it! Good night!
