Settling in Small space

After many painstaking hours, we finally have settled into our little place. It's amazing of what you can live with and live without. I love interior designing, if I can say that. It's great therapy for me. Some people love gardening like Mr. Home. Me, I love puttering around inside. It's a great love of mine. I have found when you do have a small space it frees you up to doing other things, I hope to do.


From this view you are standing at our front door looking in to our little space.
My Glass canisters are here at our entrance because it was the best place to put them. I like the color of the oats and flour and sugar they go well with the pattern of our throw cushions, don't you think.


This is our small foyer. This shelf was originally from our girls room when we lived in Pleasant Valley. When you don't have lots of space you have to multi-task your space, like this one, you can see I am keeping some of my grains here along with cookbooks and our calendar. Underneath the bench are stored shoes.


Every nook has to serve some type of purpose. I wanted Mr. Home to have a place that he could let his creativity flow and maybe even mine, so here this is.


This is our "Media center", behind the desk is Mr. Home's comfortable chair where he can relax and watch his games. I can watch too while I'm sitting at the computer and even from our bed.


Our dinette, this was actually one of our patio tables and the chairs were leftovers from an Old Togo's from our town that is no longer there. I have been storing these for quite a while, I knew they would come in handy, I have two more of them.


Looking into "the suite".


Our comfortable place for sweet dreams.


Our Micro kitchen. This Cabinet is part of the original cabinetry of the main house probably from the 40's. It's been moved so many times I have lost count. When we painted our little bungalow we decided to paint everything one color and we finally painted this cupboard and cabinet.
