      What a great way to be in the centre of things, but have your own space to come home to. Things like this take a while, to collect right items & get the ideas. I am in envy with anybody with a design-eye..

      So true. I had smallish homes and longed for a big house. I thought that would help with the clutter. No! In a large house, I've discovered, if you are not careful you will just have a big clutter.

    Such a warm inviting place. Clever choices make it seem much larger. The bedroom area really does fade into the background with the way the furniture is set up and gives the feel of it's own little room. The kitchen nook is just darling and nicely separated from the living space. Some really smart and efficient ways to maximize the space.

    I love your space!! 2 tips….1. The fake drawers do not have handles. If you put handles on the fake pull out drawers it will give the impression that they are functional. It will “look” bigger. 2. Your fantastic bathroom. The yellow and black tile. Run with the BLACK accent color. Black shower curtain, black bath mat, spray paint the wicker shelf black. The bathroom will then look designer. Currently it does not. Small spaces such as the bathroom, go big!!
    Great job!!!!
