Master BR and Guest Suite
Here is where AdventureMan and I and the Qatteri Cat sleep:
It’s the smallest bedroom we have ever had, but we like the privacy of being upstairs, and we each like having our own bathroom, and we like having our offices upstairs – we actually like spending time together. π
I’ve discovered I don’t like drawers; I put things in drawers and never see them again. I am experimenting with shelves and baskets for my non-hanging clothes, too. I always need lots of shelf space for the books I intend to read – you can see there are a few of those. One of my treasures – not an expensive treasure, I found it at an Arts fest in Seattle’s University District – is a hand carved oak earring tree, that keeps all my favorite earrings where I can see them and find what I need quickly.
While the closets are large, the doors don’t open as far as the closets go, so in the dead space at one end, I put shoe storage organizers, and now I can also see where all my shoes are. π At the other end are clothes I wear less often. We might have to get rid of these closets, and open this space up using the ‘grandkids’ room to enlarge the space and create a walk-in closet where we can see what we have. . .
No, none of this looks like House Beautiful; that’s because we really life here, and life can get a little messy. π
We are expecting company. We are ready for you! The guest suite is the largest bedroom in the house, downstairs. We slept there while we were waiting for our household goods to arrive, and I can assure you, it is very comfortable, with the best closet in the house. π
We haven’t made up the bed yet, because the Qatteri Cat watches birds sometimes from this room, and we want everything to be fresh when you arrive. π Hmmm. Guess I’ll switch out that turquoise wastecan, LOL, it is really jarring now that I see it in a photo. . .

Momcat, I looked at the Southwest Airlines page; they fly into Panama City Beach, about 2 1/2 hours away. I am curious – after September? How are you going to get a free ticket? π
Thank you, Mrm. Yes, that is AdventureMan’s “I Left My Heart in Africa” quilt, which is on the bed with the top of Africa facing to the left this time. I switch it around so it won’t get too faded in any one spot.
Is it quaint and cozy enough to tempt you to visit? π
Sign me up for some future time in that lovely guestroom. I enjoyed looking at all the photos of your new rooms….good to see all the unique items that I associate with you and your OLD house have found their new places.
My friend Grammy – too many unique items! Not enough room to put them! I’m going slowly with the walls, trying to find the right thing for each, and then switching things out . . . God willing, you will be here soon! π Happy Fourth of July!
