      I sure love how the light filters into this room :)  It makes the room feel warm and light!  What did you do to the floor before you’ve painted it?  What sort of damage was there?  I love how you’ve used vintage accents here, without going for that severe and old look most vintage rooms have.  This has got to be my most favorite vintage-themed room on here :)

      Thanks for your comment!  That was very nice.  The light filters in so nice because of how we layered the light blocking curtains underneath the light weight ones from Ikea.

      The floor was scratched up and there were a few spots of what appeared to be water damage.

      Floor: We sanded and cleaned the floor real well.  Then we applied a primer.  The next step was to paint… without getting painted into a corner!  After I did this I heard a tip on using porch paint… I hear that is more durable for walking.  We sealed it in the end… we used a polycrilic so that it wouldn’t yellow the floor.  Polyurithane is more durable but turns a yellow color. 

      I have also pickled a floor in my house.  Pickeling is beautiful.  It is the same process as staining but it turns a milky white color.  Depending on how long you leave it on before you wipe it off and how many times you go over the floor will depend on how white it is.

      I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Avett Bros, and that is one of my all-time favorite lyric quotes!  I have actually been trying to decide which Avett lyrics to use on my daughter’s wall!

      I LOVE LOVE LOVE them too!  If I ever have a boy his first name will be Avett. 

      I knew I wanted to do a bird theme so I chose that lyric out of all the amazing choices they have.  Just be sure to choose one that speaks to you… the problem I guess is that so many of them do!! =)

      Thank you!  I originally got the bathroom shelf at pottery barn years ago… but you can find similar ones online if you search for them.
