Little Blue Houses for You and Me

Posted on 4:11 PM by follow me

See this adorable little felt house? It was a birthday gift for Emma that I got from Wisteria. I loved it so much that I had to get one for myself. Well, actually I fell in love with it first and was determined to buy it when the Little Miss went and fell in love with it too. It was less expensive than the one I first saw at Anthropologie. It's also quite a bit larger and much sturdier. Emma has a lot of plans for hers. She uses it to play with her tiny stuffed animal collection, plans to use it as a suitcase on trips, and eventually as her sewing box. Mine is going to be used to hold my embroidering. Little girls come in all sizes.

Answers to your Questions:
I get a lot of questions from you guys, usually left in the comments. I try to answer them as best I can and thought I would occasionally start doing this at the bottom of my posts when I have lots to answer. If I've missed any of you, email me and let me know.

Allison- The mirror is strictly because, apparently I'm pretty vain and I like to check my face on the way out the door. Originally I just hung it in there for the hooks but I realized while we were working on the room and the mirror wasn't in there that I really missed it. Plus it does make the room feel slightly bigger!

The Lind Family- The glass canisters are from Target in the kitchen aisles. They are super reasonable and I love them. I use the same canisters in my kitchen, I would probably have them in every room!

Lisa (Coastal Nest)- The counter is that blasted plywood I was talking about. It is spackled and sanded and spackled and sanded some more. Don't get me started.

Esther- The cream color is just Antique White by Dulux/ICI paint. It's what the builder used for all of our trim so we carried it in this room too.

City Girl Em- The paint color is Martha Stewart Araucana Blue from Lowes and by the way those baskets are from Target.

Christine- The room is 5'9"x6'3" and the cubby area is 3'3"x3'9". The above pic is for you. Because of the size of the room it is very hard to photograph that corner.
