Our Historic Hideaway- The Full Tour of Our Garage Apartment!

Good Morning!!! Whew, happy to be back to normal and back to work! Last week I chatted with you guys some about my uterine ablation surgery which was last Thursday. All went well and I will most definitely be telling you all of the lovely details very soon. I am waiting just a bit to really be able and see my initial results before I give you guys my honest opinion. I had soooo many of you message me on IG contemplating the procedure. Mine was for battling my anemia so I am definitely praying for great results as well as increased and STABLE iron levels in the near future! I have to admit that although surgery is never fun, I sure enjoyed sleeping in several days last week and over the weekend. Four days in a row to be exact. Almost worth the surgery all by itself! Hehe. Kidding kidding.

Today I am FINALLLLLY sharing the full tour of our completed garage apartment. We’ve had it about 99.9% complete since May but with our hands in one hundred and twenty five other projects, those last few things kind of got put on the back burner for a while. Or like five months. Oops! Nonetheless it is now completely complete and also ready to rent! Yes, this cute little loft style space on the second level of our garage is available to rent on airbnb!

Before I get going on all of the juicy details, let me first share the HUGE ShopBop End of the Season SALE…

Before I share the grand reveal, I want to share details on two of the best features in this space as well as two of the most fabulous companies I had the opportunity to work with! First, let’s chat FLOORING… As with almost every square inch of flooring inside our home, our garage apartment was also done in yet another gorgeous hardwood option from Shaw Floors. I wanted something a little different than the whitewashed options I chose for our main home so I went with their Castlewood Oak in Armory for a darker, richer feel inside this light and bright space. Next up, WALLPAPER… You guys know that a true Addison’s Wonderland space is never complete without a beautiful bold pattern so for this space I chose this stunning Arabian Nights Wallpaper By The Pattern Collective. It was the perfect pattern, color and scale for the feature wall in our loft style space and I LOVE how it turned out!

As far as everything else inside this fun little loft style space, I wanted to create a light and airy yet whimsical and colorful feel for those staying a night or two. With the exception of the downstairs bathroom, it is all one big open space so it needed a cohesive feel. I chose to paint the entire space my favorite warm white… Alabaster by Sherwin Williams with some fun pops of Wythe Blue by Benjamin Moore on window trim and the bedroom walls. I love that the color pops against both wallpapers in this space. I then filled our little mini-house with fun touches of rattan and fun, fringy textures to complete the space and make it feel like home. Here’s a little peek at our newest rental space!

P.S. This rental space can be accessed from my blog home page anytime under the “Our Rentals” link!

    Space planning at its finest – I would stay in a heartbeat! That light fixture… PERFECTION! And I like how you had the forethought to make the walls of the “bedrooms” long enough so that you can fit a luggage rack or bench at the end of the beds to avoid having suitcases on the floor. Were you able to finagle space for a coat rack of some type?
    Can’t wait to see the bath!!

Gotta leave the house with a good cup of coffee AN Gotta leave the house with a good cup of coffee AND a beautifully made bed? ME TOO!!! 🙋🏻‍♀️ A few days ago on stories I was chatting about how huge, fluffy pillow inserts can MAKE a pillow sham! I feel the same about a comforter or duvet insert too. Layers and fluff make all the difference 🥰 P.S. My personal fave… @brooklinen is having a HUGE SALE so I linked it in my bio. Not sponsored… just love it and sharing. Happy Weekend!!!!!!

Is your house still recovering from all of the gli Is your house still recovering from all of the glitter, snow and pine needles? Don’t worry… you have one whole month until the next Holiday! 🤣 We’ve been through one too many stik vacuums over the last few years but between the lack of suction and the inability to stand up on their own, they’ve all driven me CRAZY!!! Last Fall we got the Brand New @hoover Emerge Stik Vacuum and immediately ordered one for my boutique and our cabin! It is LIGHT YEARS better than any we’ve tried so happy to say… our hunt is over! P.S. It also converts into a hand vacuum with attachments for everything from vacuuming out your car to cleaning your baseboards! #HooverPartner
The perfect addition… to cozy up your kitchen ♥️ One thing about these rails is that although they are often thought of as something you hang over a stove, you can actually hang them most anywhere in your kitchen. Almost any backsplash spot, a side wall or even over a console. I actually love when people double them up and hang tons of pots and pans! P.S. If you are worried about things getting dirty over your stove, simply hang items you use often and they’ll make their way through the cleaning cycle quite a bit. Even this little basket can be thrown into the wash 🥰 Everything is linked on today’s blog post and right here…
I know… I know… Christmas 2022 is well in the I know… I know… Christmas 2022 is well in the books BUT I did have four unexpected surgeries in December so technically I feel like I should have four extra weeks of Holiday shares… right?!? 😉 But I’ll leave it at one… AND technically it isn’t mine so I’m just bragging on my girl Ab 🥰 Hehe I’ll stop blabbing and leave y’all with a peek at Ab’s beautiful Holiday home she shared on the blog a few weeks back (linked in bio). If you want to see more of Ab AND more AW design, pop over and follow our new “behind the AW design scenes” page she’s running… @keepingupwith_aw ♥️ We also have some big news about Ab and her role with AW but I’ll save that for later too. WHEW! I think I’m done now. Goodnight friends!!!
