I painted it a very light pink, and did lots of sage and shabby accents.
This is the living room, (I took the picture from the loft)....
I love the fireplace...it is so cozy!!
This is an antique side board that I bought 20 years ago at a garage sale.
The chair is slip covered in Laura Ashley shabby floral fabric. I made all of the slipcovers myself. It was a lot of work, but I am happy with the end result.We put in a small kitchenette. It has a fridge, microwave and ice maker.
The little bay window is so sweet. I love the tea set...it has bunnies on it.
I thought the bunny chandelier with toile lampshades was too cute to pass up.
Upstairs we put a bedroom and full bath. Of coarse I had to use toile for the bedspread, and matching pink checked dust ruffle....I am proud to say I made the curtains and bedspread also.The sink cabinet and mirror were a dark brown, so I painted and stained them to look shabby.
This is the bathroom on the main floor. I love that it says "We don't skinny dip, we chunky dunk".......
I hope that everyone will stop by and say hi to Beverly and check out all of the other wonderful blogs that participate in Pink Saturday.
Have a lovely day.

That is so cute and very cottage chic. I would love to stay there, but I am afraid I would never want to leave, Happy Pink Saturday, Char
Sorry I'm a little late. Seems like when the sun is out I feel a desperate need to go outside and run errands or just life my face to the heavens and soak in the last rays before winter hits my neck of the woods.
It's always so much fun to share in the pink goodness of the blogs gathered together for Pink Saturday. A collection of some of the nicest women and prettiest blogs in cyberspace!
Bet your son just loves all the foo-foo!
Wishing you a weekend filled with l♥ve and sunshine!
