Going Through Your Parents' Things

Yesterday I drove back home with another car load full of items that once belonged to my parents.  It's been a long  and tiring day today.  I am slowly getting rid of things at the cabin that are not my style, or that I'm not using, and replacing them with gorgeous items  that belonged to my mom.  She had impeccable taste.

I redid the tiny upstairs bathroom today, and am so pleased with how it looks.  I replaced the 1950's curtains that were dusty, heavy, and dark green.  In their place, I hung some cream colored lace curtains.  They look so light and feminine.

I put a lovely rose quartz stone lamp on top of the vintage toilet.  I gives a warm glow to the room.  I also hung a pretty print with roses that my mom had in her home. 

I draped a pink shawl I have over the light fixture.  It gives the room some texture and is a lovely shade of pink. 

I also hung up my favorite towels from my parents' master bathroom.  They are a soft, pale green, with pink flowers.  My mom had them just for decoration.  They are still in perfect condition.  She took such good care of her things. 

The little bathroom upstairs is now totally transformed.  I adore it.  I even keep the door open, to show it off to people when they climb up to the bedrooms.
