A sneak peek at the old girl

So a lot of work has been done to Midge-y poo in preparation for Huddy Buddy and I's move-in date. Ignoring the fact that I still don't have a bathroom floor (but will be getting CARPET in the bathroom soon..wtf?) and it still smells like a musty old camper, I have a clearer vision of the cute little cottage she was meant to be. Unfortunately, my limited funds will not allow me to do much to the old girl, but using your imagination is fun, right?
On that note, I thought I would give you a preview of a few things going on at the chateau as of late.

Kitchen curtain, anyone? The background turquoise is reminiscent of an accent wall color in the living room. The green of the pear is reminiscent of the "Sweet Olive" shade of half the kitchen. The tan is reminiscent of my counter top and terribly unfortunate apartment-size gas stove. The yellow, my gorgeous 1950s Formica dining table. The fabric is called Scandinavian Kitchen--and whaddaya know, I'm Scandinavian! If only she were blonde.

No, I don't overthink design choices, I don't know what you're talking about. Moving on...

Hudson's curtain.

Vintage fabric for my room.

These may have something to do with the living room and kitchen curtains...
Can't forget my obsession with these. Heavily-painted cabinet hardware may or may not have been removed in the effort to suitably display my growing neurosis collection.

I can only imagine the mental picture you must have. Truth be told, I'm a little fearful myself. As soon as I retrieve my computer from the robbers computer repair folks or buy an SD card reader, I will further illuminate you with the progress of my "dream" home.

You're on the edge of your seat, I know.
