Happy Monday everyone. Thought I would share some pictures of my guest room and guest bathroom and the beginnings of our Master Bedroom and bathroom re do.
|
This was a before pic of the guest room when we looked at this town home. Woo she had two twin babies and a toddler in this room! They were busting at the seams. |
|
After picture of new guest room. The walls are painted in snow drift that is white with a touch of gray. I hope to replace this carpet upstairs when Terry finds a job. For now it is a good carpet just hard to keep clean. |
|
Everything in this room I had from the old house. The only new thing is that awesome architectural piece about my angel picture over the guest room bed. I got that recently at the three french hens market I went to with a friend. |
|
Just such an awesome piece and it frames my angel picture so beautifully. That was such a great score to find. |
|
My mom is coming in for a stay in a few weeks so I wanted to have some good reads for her by the bedside. The one book is written by my friend Diana from Nana Diana Takes a Break blog. If you have not read her first published book this is a great summer read. I left it for my mom to enjoy at night before she goes to sleep. |
|
I was able to use this old cabinet piece in the room and also my vintage window framed mirror from the old house. |
|
I love that it reflects the light and my angel. |
Now on to the Guest Bathroom.
Before:
|
Yikes the dark red this bathroom was!!!!!! |
|
Before |
|
I used Behr Marque paint. Guaranteed to cover in one coat over any color. So with the dark red I decided to use this to see if that were true. Yep one coat and it covered all the red nicely. |
|
This mirror is off my great grandmothers dresser. I have had this pretty mirror forever and never had a place to use it. It looks great in this new guest bathroom. |
|
I hung one of my old posts I had. This will be nice for my guest to hang their robe on and the old vintage frames I had work nicely to have hooks for towels. The bench was from my old dining room set in the old house. Worked perfectly in this bathroom. It is a big guest bathroom. Love the nice open space in this bathroom. I will show you the shower curtains I am having done for both this bathroom and my master when they arrive. I am excited to have some new shower curtains created for both of these bathroom. So more to follow on those. |
|
Perfect for hanging a robe or towel for my guests. |
|
Cooper loves to lay in this bathroom on hot days. This bathroom floor feels nice to him. |
Here is my Powder Room on the First Level.
|
This is the hall way right outside the powder room |
|
This hall way also leads to the kitchen which I hope to show you soon. Almost done in there. Just tweaking! |
|
This is the powder room on the first floor. Painted in the snow drift color. I brought that old cottage door mirror I had in my other bathroom to use in this powder room. |
|
Sometimes it is the little touches that just make you smile. I just added an old piece of chippy wood behind this regular ole toilet paper holder and it just gave a chippy vintage vibe. So simple. |
|
I was able to hang this old arched church window I had hanging in my old master bath in the old house. Love that the things I saved and brought with me can be used in the new house. It was hard to figure out what to save and what to let go of before we moved with not having a new home yet. So I am excited that almost all my favorite pieces I brought with are able to fit somewhere in this new home. |
|
Sneak peek at the new Master Bedroom. Still working on this room and my master bath. I will have finished pictures soon.
Thanks for your visit today. I have to say with being in the new place less than a month. Terry and I have gotten so much done in a short time. Just some tweaking on the upstairs and getting a few things done in the kitchen and we will be finished. Well at least finished for now lol! You know me and change. Just with doing so much painting and change ups to every room in this new home I am ready for a break. I want to enjoy the rest of the summer and our new little grand baby due this Thursday. So it will be nice to not have the new house to worry about and we can enjoy a summer break and the new addition to our family. |
Have a great new week. Enjoy every minute. I will have the kitchen and master bath and bedroom soon. So excited for Charlotte Grace our new grand baby to arrive in just a few days. Abby is so excited to be a big sister and we are beyond thrilled to have another grand baby to love. While life has been a real roller coaster for us this past year with lots of disappointments and hardship we have many wonderful blessing too. This new addition to the family being a beautiful blessing.
Hugs,
Kris
Love what you did with the TP holder in the bathroom! Genius! Also, that architectural piece and Angel are perfect above the bed. You both have done such a great job and I can't wait to see more!
ReplyDeleteWow again, Kris! I cannot believe what all you guys have accomplished. Like you, it's those little things that I love - that architectural salvage over the angel in the guest (!), the tp holder, even the cherub soap holder (is that a glass bowl epoxyed to a base of a candleholder or lamp base?), your bench and chippy arched windows. Really, it all looks so nice. Your mom should really feel like a pampered guest when she comes!
ReplyDeleteKris I can't believe how much work you two have done in such a short period of time. And the changes...WOW...what amazingly beautiful transformations! Love that piece over your angel pic and the gorgeous mirror and chandy in the guest bathroom. All of your paint colors...just perfect!
ReplyDelete(And your mom is going to love Diana's book...I read it last summer.)

WOW!
ReplyDeleteYou and Terry have been Busy Bees!
I love everything you have done - genius to just add some chippy wood behind a toilet paper roll. And that architectural piece is fabulous.
I have no words for your beautiful transformations. I am awed by your work, as usual. Simply fabulous!! Can't wait to hear about the arrival of your granddaughter! May it be a quick and painless delivery!! :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteLovely is an understatement! I'm starting to think townhouse as a retirement home (Home after the military) for my husband and I :)
ReplyDeleteEverything is looking so pretty and so like you. You amaze me at how fast you two have pulled this house together. Congrats on the new grand too. Now stop and enjoy it all.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so beautiful!!!! I can't get over what a difference painting made. PLUS I can't believe you covered that red paint with only one coat...incredible!!! Congratulations on the new grand baby too :o)
ReplyDelete~Des
It is all so beautiful and looks like you saved the perfect pieces. Can't wait to see the rest. my friend. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteYou are doing such a lovely job, Kris...beautiful rooms! So nice to have so much done so you can enjoy the summer and your new little grandchild! xo
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say but, WOW love everything that you and Terry have accomplished. I can't believe the changes you have made and they look terrific. I bet it won't be long until the magazines will be wanting to do a photo shot at your new home.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for taking us on this beautiful tour of your new home. Cooper looks so much at home - he is a sweet boy.
Lots of hugs,
Mary
Kris you and Terry must have exhausted and sore muscles but ecstatic joyful hearts. Your home looks beautiful and you both so deserve a beautiful nest. Kris I was looking at your exquisite cemetery angel art and I knew that I knew that lovely angel. So I searched my mind and remembered where John and I stood in the peaceful energy of her presence. It was in Savannah Georgia ... I googled and found a side profile of her I am going to email you. Even with just looking at her on the computer screen hanging in your guest room I felt protected and quiet. A truly beautiful new home Kris and of course I love all your new additions but mostly I find inspiration from your repurposing, recycling and giving a continued legacy to each amazing gathered piece. Am I awful to say this? You can tell me if you think I am... but I love your new nest more than the original Junk Chic Cottage No. 1. Enjoy your Moms visit and BTW Cooper laying on the cool bathroom floor looks precious.
ReplyDeletexoxo,
Vera
Oh Kris, this is so beautiful. You've truly made this place your own in what seems like such a short period of time. I just love all of your soft, serene white and the architectural touches. I want your gatherings chalkboard...ok? Just kidding...I wish you mounds of happiness there. :)
ReplyDeleteOMG pure magic! How lovely lovely lovely is that bedroom!! so beautiful, I adore it, especially.....well everything, the white, the angle picture, the light, all of it. You are gifted!
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! You have just worked magic in your new home. I love that you have made it so "you". Beautiful job. Your MBR is looking spectacular already. Can't wait to see more. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteJudy
Helloooo Kris!*!*!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! Your transformations are beyond AmaZiNg!!! Soooo glad you're back at it!!! LoVe your new Architectural Find... Hugs, Jeanine
You never cease to amaze me with what you get done in such a short time! And you are incredibly gifted at putting things together in the most amazing way. Wow - everything is looking amazing at your home!! Can't wait to hear news of the new grandbaby Charlotte Grace - how exciting for you all!!
ReplyDeleteYou have made your house into a beautiful home, Kris. So glad you've been able to use your wonderful architecturals throughout. I really like the changes I noticed in your bedroom...so lovely. Anxious to see your kitchen. Congratulations on your new baby girl coming this week...very exciting!
ReplyDeleteMary Alice
You have done such a wonderful job on making your new house a home. I love all the little touches that are you! Wonderful ideas you have given, love the door mirror and chippy toilet paper holder, very creative. Alaina
ReplyDeleteHi Kris! Where to even start? So much gorgeousness going on! Love all the vintage touches and I really adore your hallway. You know me and color...but wow! I love all of your white! Life has it's twists and turns, and you & Terry surely have had more than your share of twists this past year. So happy that things are changing for you! Can't wait to see baby pics! Jane
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so pretty! I love all the white and grey you used everywhere. I also adore your bed framed in a canopy in your master bedroom! I can tell that y'all have been busy, busy, busy! I didn't realize that your grandchild is due this week. How exciting! I hope all goes well.
ReplyDeleteI am astounded at how much you have accomplished in such a short time! Yes, time for a break and enjoy that new baby.
ReplyDeleteSo very lovely
ReplyDeleteCielo
Beautiful... You have worked magic in every room! Enjoy your summer and new addition. xoxo Su
ReplyDeleteI bet you are having the time of your life, I know I sure would be! It's so much fun to style a new home, giving it a new look with many of your older pieces, yet it's all taking on a whole different feel in this home.
ReplyDeleteYour bathroom is perfect, what a job painting it all and changing up a few things but well worth placing your stamp on it.
I can wait for a complete home tour when you finally say to yourself it's all finished.
See you and your white beauty soon.
Ps it looks like cooper approves of all the changes as well, he is relaxed in the bathroom taking in all the beauty.
Xx
Dore
I really don't know what to say....I really AM speechless....
ReplyDeleteWhat you've done here Kris, honestly, you have worked so fast and have achieved SO MUCH BEAUTY. Your touch is professional and well done. That bathroom....I have to get some of that paint for my kitchen which is an orche color and I want to change it to white. Sounds like a good solution!
This simplicity and elegance that is the result of carefully placed vintage items is the trick to feeling the true Shabby Chic look. I want to achieve this in one room of the older part of the house, but I still can't figure out what is missing. Maybe it's a new paint job that I need, but you have captured it. WELL DONE! And it's still only June, so enjoy the new arrival of your grand!!!! LOVE TO YOU!
Good Morning Kris
ReplyDeleteSo so beautiful*** you have been working your magic in every room. Love it all. You and Terry must be working day and night to have done so much. You have brighten up the rooms and made them so soft and pretty. Love that toilet paper holder now with that piece of wood. That gorgeous piece over your angel hanging is the best, what an awesome find. That sneak peak of your bedroom!!! well that little bit is absolutely gorgeous. Cant wait to see the rest. I am so happy for you and your family on your new grand baby coming, you must be bursting with excitement, I sure would be. How is Cooper feeling? Enjoy this glorious day Kris. Thanks for sharing your beautiful rooms.
deezie
It is all lovely! You two have done so much in such a short period of time.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy some time off with your new grand-daughter and family.
Love & hugs ~ FlowerLady
You and Terry have done an amazing transformation and it all looks so beautiful. All of your mirrors and architectural pieces look so nice down to the chippy piece of wood behind the toilet paper roll. I will have to keep the Behr Marquis paint in mind since we just painted one child's room red (not my choice of course) and I know someday I will be painting over it.
ReplyDeleteWowww! Your transforamtion is fabulous! I'm speechless!You and Terry have done myracles! Everything is gorgeous
ReplyDeleteHugs Alessandra
Love the transformations! I love the piece above the angel picture, and that bathroom! What a huge difference. I love Behr paint for that very reason. All your spaces are just gorgeous. Can't wait to see the rest. Enjoy that sweet new grandbaby!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Cecilia
Love seeing the changes...adding all your beautiful pieces has made it took like "home".
ReplyDeleteAll the beautiful changes you have accomplished in such a short period of time is amazing! Your new grandbaby will be loved by all of us too.
ReplyDeleteLove your new home. You are doing such a beautiful job! Congratulations on your new grandbaby. What a blessing! xxx Maria
ReplyDeleteKris, you are truly amazing! I'd love to hire you to work with me on some redo's in my house. (And you aren't that far away.)
ReplyDeleteLOL Glenda. I would love to help you but I need a break after this house. Summer is calling me and a new grandbaby too.
DeleteWhere do you leave?
Kris
Kris this awesome, you had drooling over every touch. Like the new piece over your angle. Smashing job. The master is beautiful already. Can't wait to see more prettiness.
ReplyDeleteCindy
Looks beautiful Kris! I'm sure you are over the moon excited for your new grand baby. Hope Terry finds a job soon.
ReplyDeleteI truly love it all! I'd gladly come stay for a visit :-) The guest room is gorgeous and the dark bathroom turned light is perfect!
ReplyDeletewoohoo....a beautiful new baby is coming. :) Everything is looking so nice Kris. It definitely has the Kris touch...And I had no idea Diana had written a book....how did I not know that? :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteEverything looks fresh and beautiful, Kris. Your guests will be happy guests for sure. You've gotten so much done in just a few weeks. You two are a great team. Enjoy your wonderful new home!
ReplyDeletexo Julia
Wow, Kris! Just wow. You have transformed this space so quickly and it is gorgeous. I love that new piece in the bathroom. It caught my eye immediately. You must be so excited about the new baby.
ReplyDeleteDear Kris, everything is just divine! Living in your home has to be like heaven. I love the architectural piece above the angle picture. It looks like a halo. I'm crazy about your bedroom, so beautiful. It reminds me of my childhood bedroom. My sis and I always slept under a canopy. My mom was a great interior designer so our home was always decorated so beautifully. Keep them coming your home is such an inspiration. xx Jo
ReplyDeleteI'm simply amazed at how much you have accomplished in such a short time. You both must be so excited (but exhausted)! Everything looks beautiful and should be in a magazine.
ReplyDeleteYou are so smart to do everything done fast though because you're right...once your new grand baby gets here life will be even busier :). .
Everything looks absolutely lovely in your new home! How exciting for you to have a beautiful new home and a beautiful new granddaughter too. Your all white décor has inspired me and I just had my dining room painted white. I love it! All of my décor just pops against it. Congratulations this week for the new baby!
ReplyDeleteHello Kris, wow you and your husband have done a beautiful job with the new house! I love the all white and the guest room paint is so pretty! You should of been an interior decorator! Lol! Cooper is such a cutie. Good luck and congrats on becoming a new grandma! Have a nice week and have a happy 4th of July! :)
ReplyDeleteJulie
I'm also amazed what you two have gotten done....makes me feel like I'm being lazy! Everything looks beautiful and if any of you salvaged pieces go missing...I might have stopped by.
ReplyDeleteEverything is so lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove what you have done to your new home Kris. Congratulations on being a grandma again! Milena
ReplyDeleteKris, you are getting so much done. It all looks wonderful. Especially love that architectural piece and your great grandma's mirror!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Very lovely--all of it, Kris. A question though: I couldn't find the link to Lisa's Etsy site to check out her slipcovers. Where is it?
ReplyDeleteHere is her website. She does beautiful work .http://lharmondesign.com
Deleteyou've come along way girl in such a short time! Everything looks so lovely and fresh. I think the carpeting is a nice compliment to the rest of your décor...but certainly can empathize with the hared to keep clean factor. Enjoy your mother's visit. I have been having my mother a couple days a week over the last couple of weeks. She only lives about 40 minutes away, but it is so difficult to get quality time together with the limitation in time due to my husbands issues. It does a girls heart and soul good to have her mother or daughter near.
ReplyDeleteYou sure have The Touch to transform anything into beauty
ReplyDeleteLove the powder room as much as Cooper does
Also love how you have your grandmothers mirror and using it
Your house is amazing and you are also
BEAUTIFUL!!! I ADORE the arched windows! Your home continues to be amazing!
ReplyDeletewarmly,
deb
You have done miracles here! All so fresh and lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe transformation is amazing. I love the faucets that you chose. They make such a big difference. so many cute things. I think my favorite is the window above the toilet in the powder room. Your bed looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! You are so good! I love it.
ReplyDeleteYour bed is a favorite of mine.
I think the old church window is another favorite and the .... oh golly, all of it is my favorite.
Love, Carla
I can't get over how much you two have got done in just a month - wow! I LOVE how you used the post to hang guest robes and framed the towel hooks in the guest bathroom. Every room is just beautifully and tastefully decorated, like only you know how. Now relax and enjoy that beautiful new granddaughter! Oh, and Happy July 4th coming up too :)
ReplyDeleteOh my! You've transformed the house so much already, applying your magic touch to every room.
ReplyDeleteOMGOSH, Kris! You would never know it was the same house. You really do have the 'magic' gene in your blood. You would never know that was not a stand alone house to look at it. Fantastic job. AND thank you for the blurb about my book. You is da best!!!!! Thank you so very much---oh---I already said that--but I truly mean it.
ReplyDeleteLove all your choices in the new place. That bathroom was almost gaudy before with those dark colors. Sure looks great now.
Have a wonderful weekend with that new baby girl. xo Diana
Fantastic redo in such a abort time...I am so excited to start fixing up our vintage cottage! You always have great ideas Thanks and congratulations grandma
ReplyDeleteThe transformations are magnificent Kris!....You and Terry make a great team!....I so love everything you have done from that wonderful post to hang robes to the sweet mirror from your grandmother. Cooper seems to be happy with his new home!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your master bedroom reveal...it looks gorgeous so far!!
The transformation is amazing - everything looks fresh and inviting. I pinned the hallway board with the hooks - so summery!
ReplyDeleteHi Kris! I'm making the rounds catching up and wow! Your new house is looking amazing! I love all the special touches of your junk finds and it all blends perfectly in the new spaces. xoxo, T.
ReplyDeleteLove watching your new house come alive with your fantastic & beautiful decorating skills!!! My opinion on the grandma's baking cabinet....looks fabulous where you put it in the kitchen, but I think the open shelving would be more practical and give you the much needed counter space. But the kitchen is gorgeous and so is that new grand baby. Congratulations to you and Terry!!
ReplyDeleteHi Kris! I am catching up on your blog with all of your beautiful posts featuring your new home! I love how you and Terry can get so much done in so little time! I wish I had this house as settled as your new one! I haven't been able to email because it appears that somebody tried hacking into my account and now it is locked and since the only thing Verizon we have here is our email accounts, I can't get customer service! I think I will try going into the section for wireless and beg for help! It's been weeks and I have no idea what mail I've missed! I missed reading your blog so much! I figured this was a good place to reach you! You can reach me at pinkcherubmoon@gmail.com. Take care! Hugs, Leena
