Vanity

Oh how I would love to find a little nook in my house for a vanity -- is that vain? In magazines they always look so dainty and feminine...a little place to powder your nose :)

Oh my! I would adore having my own little spot somewhere like that. :) So much more fun than having all my "girly stuff" spread about the bathroom vanity. ;)

I've always wanted a vanity too, ever since I was a little girl. :)

I actually have my grandmother's vanity; one summer, I spent a few weeks sanding it and painting it a bright white (it used to be avocado!). But, to make room, I had to sacrifice a dresser, and get creative with closet storage. I don't sit at it (I need to re-cane or re-upholster the stool), but it's a nice focal point, and holds up my stuff (like a pink glass cake stand where I put all my perfume bottles). :)

I think they are so cute and not vain...a girl needs her space!

Love the one with the mirrored vanity and purple/blue (?) chair!

I like the second one. And I just realized that on the wall there's a frame subway map from somewhere. I've always wanted to frame this kind of art. This post actually reminded me of that. Thanks!
