Eclectic House Tour – Rustic Design

September 14, 2013  Exceptionally Eclectic | Uncategorized

 

Rustic Front Porch - part of this gorgeous vintage, rustic home tour blog kellyelko.com

I wish I could back up a U-Haul up to Liz Marie Blog‘s house and run away with all of her finds.

She’s the little sister I never had – one with style and who knows her way around a power tool or two.

 

$40 for this 11 foot church pew that rests happily on the vintage front porch – amen to that!

The mix of color and patterns in this beautiful bedroom is eclectic done right!

Rustic and Eclectic Bedroom (love that DIY headboard)

I’d have sweet dreams if this to the ceiling rustic headboard were mine – Liz Marie gives great instructions on how to make your own.

Open shelving on this DIY tv console is perfect for showing off favorite things.

Since she didn’t need her original media cabinet anymore, it was moved to the foyer but not until Liz Marie worked her magic and transformed it into a DIY card catalog cabinet with a few tweaks.

You know I’m a sucker for a good plate wall …

or gallery wall.

All that’s missing in this cozy fall dining room is me sipping a glass of wine.

It must be fate because I just found four of the same six-pane vintage windows – maybe I’ll have to make my own window headboard!

When not applying lipstick and bronzer at her DIY glass top vanity table, Liz Marie can often be found playing with her power tools.

    Love the photos, all with some great ideas. I so admire folks that have vision like Liz Marie. I have to say I do a lot of copying for my own own with ideas like this. I especially love the rustic headboard, just need to get hubby to find the time to do that, apart from our own rustic designs.

    Thanks so much,
    Elizabeth

    I like how this home is very well designed but still looks like someone could live there. It’s not too done up but looks amazing!
