I love that you have a swee...love both so so much!! I love that you have a sweet old house with nooks and crannies and you can totally make that happen. I'm also really digging the wallpaper on the ceiling in the second pic!<br /><br />painted piano - Love the picture here! Funny story:<br />When my mom and dad moved to their house (where my ma still lives), there was a player piano in the basement. Apparently no one could assess how it got down there, because it is a big honking monstrosity and would not fit up the stairs.<br />Anyway, the guys in the neighborhood all did work on each others' houses, had beers together, played cards, bbqed, etc. (Total American 1960s stereotype, right?)<br />Owner of the house lost a bet with one of his buddies, and had to paint the piano yellow. YELLOW. Not a sweet delicate shabby chic yellow. It's a big stinking yellow piano hulking in her basement. With yellow paint chipping off. So...make sure you follow the tips and love the color!!!!Amy Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13864770312360226508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981306116311147658.post-2207264452209998702009-06-29T10:46:24.324-07:002009-06-29T10:46:24.324-07:00I love the idea of a painted piano.

How fun would it be to sleep in there!! <br />Daydream away! It's always a fun diversion!<br /><br /><br />Love,<br />EricaEricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17128854491536190815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981306116311147658.post-36567281444648086602009-06-28T19:23:18.400-07:002009-06-28T19:23:18.400-07:00I love the alcoves.
