Ideas for the Bathroom

I have been envisioning my decor for the bathroom to be more of an earthy feel and with all the bamboo items I have been coming into, I decided to go with bamboo bathroom accessories.

Here is a set that I found at Walmart for only $64 for a 5-piece set.




I mean it is all real bamboo no veneer and is a great price compared to other high-end brands.

Shower curtain ----

I like the brown one a lot but I don't want it to make the bathroom look smaller than it is already with the dark color....I know the white one may look cheap but it has gotten some great reviews and with a little bit of accenting in brown I think I may have something going here!





Hmmmmmmmmm..........

UPDATES!!!! And...PICTURES!!!!

So here are more pictures of the dresser/nightstand and all of the decor items (PARTYLIGHT!!!) as well as some bamboo accents, rugs, and handmade okinawan glass flowers! Oh yea and the awesome hutch!!!! ;)













Also...BIG UPDATE!!! I found the matching chair to my IKEA Lillberg Living Room Suite!!!! And I also bought a used coffee/end table set from IKEA that TOTALLY goes with my lillberg birch base....it has white frosted glass edges and ALOT of underneath display/storage area!!!! Got all three for $100!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!

Any Opinions?????

Yes they are a bit large but if I end up using only the one end table I think it can work out well!!!! PLEASE EXCUSE MY MESS!!! The place I have been storing the furniture at has gotten a little overloaded! I think I am going to put the print covers on the loveseat and chair and put the black back on the sofa!! I think it will look great!! Oh and the coffee/end tables are from the Magiker Line at IKEA.






OH YEAA!! Here is the 99¢ TV Stand!!! Finally picked it up from Carthage...please exscuse the dust and dirt, I hadn't even had a chance to dust it off or clean it I just wanted to see what my puny little 26" TV would look like on it LOL IT IS MASSIVE!!! I think I'll have to upgrade a few inches!!!! :) As you can see, I already had to put some things on the sides to make it look better than it did!!!!



So yeaaa...I'll have more pictures up of my kitchenware and appliances soon! As you can see I'm happy that things are falling into place, as tomorrow is the "two week until" mark for the move-in!!!!!!!!

Hitting the Criagslist Jackpot! Move-in date is soon!

Soooo...Haven't updated the blog in a while but I have gotten TONS of things in the meantime. Lots of kitchen wares, a butcher block with knives (insignia steel from Chicago cutlery...ITS AWESOME!) A Silverstone Cookware set with Red pots and pans, some appliances and MUCH MUCH MORE (Details on those to come!)



Yesterday afternoon I found a listing for a dresser and nightstand at College Hill in Greensboro. It was listed for only $50 and the woman told me they were in great condition so I didn't want to get my hopes up but she called me with directions and I came to look at them after I got off and paid and picked them up on the spot! (I'm suprised they fit in the explorer but somehow I managed to fit them in together!

Now I know these are off-white, with gold trim but they have a nice antique-chique vibe and it may not be matchy matchy with my bed but for the price....I have to take what I can get for now with the move in date nearing! Its still very nice furniture and it always has potential to be refinished or resold if I do find another fit! ITS SO HARD TO FIND espresso colored furniture that will match my bed! Most of it is either to cheap to consider or too high end to think about...so I'm still looking but am very happy with this find! Also, once the room is set up and I have my linens on the bed and lamps on the nightstand it will look great! I'm being hopeful!





I also got this lovely China Hutch thats from Japan. The guy I bought it from is in the process of moving and has lived in okinawa for 6 years and is in the military. Now hes moving back to okinawa, where his family is already and he had a ton of stuff for sale in the process! His wife has tons of Partylite candles and holders and tons of decorative items! I'm going back in the morning to shop around some more and pick up the hutch.!



IT IS BEAUTIFUL! LET ME TELL YOU!!!!!!!! It has a cherry blossom inlay and the drawers and doors glide, open/close like a champ!!!! I'm in love with it!!! It has an IKEA-looking vibe to it.

MORE TO COMEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
