a little more Me

HAHAHA- well my blog heading description does say " a little bit about me and a lot of what I love"- ???- LOL- so you've had a bit more of me the last few days- LOL. Thanks so much for the compliments on my "Junk Room"- I'm really thrilled with it and at this stage am looking at the bathroom now too- (hee hee, much to Wayne's despair!)- he's moaning he just got used to it!!! But it's in Blues and browns which match Nathans room and seeing that we are changing that one too- well I thought it would be fine to match the spare room as the door is directly opposite the bathroom-KWIM!! LOL_ YOU DO???- YAY, see I have back-up Waynie!

Amber- You asked how I landed up in South Africa- Girl, I was BORN and BRED here- still in the same City I was born in- have lived in Argentina for just short of two years, but that's it- I'm a SOUTH AFRICAN through and through-and proudly so too. LOL. Tropical Storm Jenessa - ROTFLMAO- now girl there is nothing so strange about that dream, it's probably what would have happened- WAHAHAHAHAHA! I've made MANY a friend out of just such a *deal* ( maybe not my car- but other goodies LOL). -TNChick- that LO is just BEAUTIFUL!! I LOVED it- couldn't leave you love there so doing it now! babepink35 I couldn't get hold of you as you didn't leave me a link or mail addy- don't you want to e-mail me- it's in my profile;-).

Just a huge thank you for your story's too on 4shared- I miss them here on the blog but understand that not everyone has accounts with blogger- but just to let you know I READ THEM ALL!! hee hee, and I giggle through a TON of them! (((HUGS))))

I've just finished my new kit- NANCY you listening girl!!! IT's DONE!! WOOOHOOOOOOO- I'm doing the previews and just a few extras ( oh I just never think it's done!!!- WAHAHAHA) But you all always benefit with the extras so it's a GOOD thing!- Want a little * sneaky peaky*???- just a glimpse-LOL

glimpse

Too be honest this was one I have had ON GOING since last year-LOL. And I eventually had to make myself say WOOOAH- it's finished! But I'll be sharing more of it over the next few days- YIPPPEEEE>

And I had a request from Elaine for some cluster frames (4 to 7) , so I decided to show you how I've done up MY BEDROOM- You guys are really getting a peak into my house now- remember this was an OLD house that I have bashed up and redone- so it's been a slow process and it's just soooo excting when the rooms get finished enough to start decorating- I added pics of the MES-bathroom that we have JUST finished ( it still needs a few things but it's acceptable to me-hahaha)

room

Now you know why I have a thing for orange and burgundy- LOL. It's so HOME here, The walls are painted in a textured paint that feels rough- like clay, and the bathroom has sand stone tiles on the walls and in the shower- the curtain tie backs have a red gem bling thing with beads hanging from the bottom too- I used a piece of the duvet on the background ( it's felt with handstitched accents). I used my Weathered Frames that I have available in my store and made up this cluster frame for you to use-

Now you can also do a multi pic LO with ease- http://www.4shared.com/file/40668533/fdf2724f/kb-multiframes.html. OOH Renee- I got the green duvet from Home Zone, cushions from Boardmans, throw from Boardmans too- LOL. I buy all over the place as long as it takes my fancy- hahahahaha. Until tomorrow- hugs and Loves Kim

Stunning bedroom. I'm popping in at Sheet Street on Sunday. There's some goodies I have my eye on.

Unknown said...

Wow Kim, I SO enjoyed the peak into your home. :) You have excellent designing taste and the rooms you showed here look so inviting. That's the whole key to decorating anyway, IMO. :)

And it's so interesting to see how things look in other places. The 'sink' is definitely different from what I'm used to seeing here in the states. Yours looks like a bowl with an unusual water spigot that pours into it. Does the bowl have a drain in it? Or do you pick it up and dump it out? Not to be dumb, lol but I've just never seen that before.

And DUH... I forgot to thank you for the lovely frame cluster. They will be fun to use. Thank you! :)

Beth said...
