Beach House Tour

Welcome to the beach house!  I had a lot of fun putting this together.  This house was previously totally pink and I gave it a few coats of the Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch spray paint.

I fell in love with the results and it put me in the beach house groove.  So, I began picking out furniture pieces, sewing and more painting.

And now here's the tour...

Loft Renovation (Part 1 of 2)

When I purchased this loft I knew I was going to end up making some changes, since I was sure I wouldn't get much use from the boutiques.

AFTER...

Although, I really liked the lower level boutiques and cafe, it was just a matter of time before they ended up as part of the loft.  They were turned into a (left to right) closet, bathroom and office.

The living room also got a small reno to cover up the printed kitchen in the background and the kitchen was moved over to where the bathroom used to be.

BEFORE...

The photos below show somewhat of statement walls in each room..

Thought this paper was fun and cute for the kitchen.  Feels like you're outdoors dining in Paris.♥

A motivational patchwork wall for the office.

Soft florals for the closet and gold elephants for the bathroom, which I love!

The bedroom stayed the same for now..

Since I really like the colors.  I'm hoping I can find something similar to renovate this room.  If not, I like it just the same.

Scrapbook paper from Michaels and Hobby Lobby were used.

Thanks for looking!  Part 2 will most likely include decor, touch-ups and all that jazz.

Brooklyn's Loft Kidkraft Dollhouse Photos

This is one of the newer dollhouses from Kidkraft.  I thought it was really cute (and I've been looking for one for a while), so needless to say- I bought it.  This is my first Kidkraft dollhouse and I'm now a big fan.

The balcony and fire escape is one of my favorite things about this house.

It came with a decent amount of furniture and accessories.

Ikea Dollhouse Furniture Set + Decorating Inspiration

I've seen this awesome Ikea dollhouse set floating around online and had to get my hands on one!  So a few days ago I went into Ikea for the 1st time (what a great store), picked up this set and absolutely love it.  It's a 7 piece set, including the sofa cover and pillow at $15.

Dollhouses at Toys R Us

This post was inspired by Vanessa of Fashion Dolls at Van's Doll Treasures.  She's been posting some really cute pictures of dollhouses by Kidkraft and my interest was peaked!  Not knowing much about these houses, I surfed their website and fell in love.  More specifically, I'm so in love with the Soho Townhouse, but unfortunately have yet to find it at a price that meets my budget.

Not discouraged, I saw that they were sold at Toys R Us and made a trip.  I was aware that it was a huge possibility that Soho wouldn't be there, but I did find a few Kidkraft dollhouses and other brands.  This is what I found...
