Vintage Dressing Rooms
I'm a lucky girl because I live alone, I can turn a spare bedroom into a dressing room. My house is small, small, small. We're talking tiny here....1,000 square feet of living space, give or take some. This tiny little room is called a crib room. I guess because it's only big enough for a crib! Makes a great dressing room for me though! A girl has just gotta have her own space and I would like to say that I really have downsized over the years on my vintage clothing. I know that some people like to hoard and keep it ALL for themselves but I'd rather put all the stuff I don't want anymore back out into circulation. It's good for my vintage karma and my wallet!

Atomic Mama....Wow I couldn't even imagine doing that! But then again that's what they did before they started building all these McMansions!

I think you might be the luckiest girl in the world! That room is amazing. How much fun you must have to play dress up in there.

Oh, how wonderful! One day I hope I can do the same thing. (I've been trying to get my mum to let my convert our spare room into a dressing room for me but she's none too pleased with the idea ;])

ReplyDeleteI'm so envious of your dressing room, I've always wanted one complete with a little vintage vanity! I love the lamps visible in the photos and that little chair is adorable as well. :)

Mandy,
ReplyDeleteThis was a custom built in unit. Nothing expensive just some painted plywood!
Would love to see what you do to your room, so please send me some pictures when you are done!
