First up, tour of her bedroom. The furniture in here is from when they got married and is 43 years old and still looks brand new. I love this set.
We had to do a drop ceiling in most of her apt due to pipes. It makes it much easier if we had to get to them. Her kitchen is the only room with a 9ft sheet rock ceiling.
Well that's it for the bedroom tour. I'll show you her other rooms soon. She is in the process of getting a new couch and chairs, so I will wait until they come in to do the tour of her living rm and dining rm. I always look forward to our visits. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Martina
I know I just had the Ramsign giveaway but I'm still going to do another one for hitting my 100th post so stay tuned!

Its lovely Martina. I hope each of you enjoy every moment together.
It is very pretty. The furniture is wonderful...and I see she collects Hummels!
So nice that you have your Mom there with you Martina! Looks like she has a fabulous set up too. I love her bedroom. I can't get over the shape of her furniture, just gorgeous!
Martina, that furniture is timeless. Ethan Allen only sales quality. I love her bed. Your children are so lucky to have their grandmother live with them. Beautiful room.
Martina, what a special gift to have your Mom right there with you.
My parents' bedroom set looks very similar! I believe it's about the same age. It's amazing to see the quality of the pieces that were made so many years ago.
Your Mom's bedroom is beautiful!

Martina your mothers apartment is gorgeous! I love the little teapot lamp to!
Oh my how beautiful. I could move right in. I like how you chose to put the mirror off center of the dresser, great touch. I'm sure your Mom is loving the new place.
Hi Martina, what a darling teapot lamp! I don't blame for you wanting it. Your mother's bedroom is beautiful and I love that picture above her bed.
Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful evening celebrating both your birthday and anniversary.

Oh my, looks so comfortable and restful. I could just crawl up on that bed and sleep! You're lucky to have her there with you and she's blessed that you have a place for her. Just the best situation!
Will look forward to seeing the rest of her space.
Blessings,
Kathy
Very pretty bedroom...I love the bed linens and the Hummel collection is pretty! I would love to have that teapot lamp, too!! ;-D
XO,

Such a pretty serene room! I LOVE the picture from your parents wedding day!
Your Mom's room is so pretty! I love her style. My parents have a very similar set that also looks great still--they really did make quality pieces back then!
You are all so lucky to be able to live together. What a gift!
Have a great day.
Pam
Sounds like a great set-up for each of you. Love you dollar plant and expecially the hedgeapples in your other post. I am your newest follower.
Sorry, I misspoke before. It was on The old post Road where I saw the dollar plant and hedgeapples!
Your mom's room is lovely. So restful. I will look forward to seeing the rest of her space.
I love her furniture and she has the room decorated so pretty!
I wish my Mom was closer but she is stubbornly staying in FL.
Enjoy all the time you can with your Mom!
First off, you are so lucky to have your Mom there with you, and your children will look back with such fond memories of all the time with Grandma.
Her bedroom is beautiful. Is that your Mom & Dad's wedding picture?
My Mom gave me the same silver teapot lamp about 6 years ago - you can't have mine either. (wink)
That is so nice that you can have your Mom so close! Her bedroom looks so cozy, yet bright!
That's so nice that you have your mom living with you like that. I bet that makes you feel better knowing that she's not alone and you can help each other now. Her bedroom looks so pretty. It looks like you've been able to give her a nice space to live. Can't wait to see her other rooms in the future.
Hi Martina,
What a lovely room for your mother...
It must be so nice for the both of you!
Her bedroom is so bright and fresh,
love her winter bedding!
All the Best,
Christine
What a blessing to have your mom live with you. Her bedroom is so peaceful and pretty. Maybe she will start blogging now too!
What a blessing to have your mom living with you. Her bedroom set is to die for. I am totally in love with the bird cage with the fern in it hanging from the ceiling.
Paula
Martina. I think it is so wonderful that your sweet mother is right there with you...and I am sure she feels the same way....Love her bedroom...the quilt and shams are beautiful :)
Enjoy!

I love the highboy!! I have quite a few old Ethan Allen pieces. Love them.
That must be fun to have your Mom there with you, Martina! I agree that it is an experience your kids will treasure. One of my grandmothers lived with us and we were very close. I'm looking forward to seeing more of the apartment!
What a wonderful space! The little teapot lamp is so sweet and adorable!
It is just lovely Martina and so light and bright! How wonderful to have her there with you and your kiddos and I'm sure she feels equally blessed! :-)

Martina,
It's so wonderful that you have built a living space for your Mom. She will always be near and you won't have to worry about her. Also, as you said, she will be there with her grandchildren.
I love her bedding and all of her beautiful pieces.
hugs

Your mom is one lucky lady to have such a lovely place to live. Sounds like you are quite lucky too, to have have your mom living with you.
Martina, It's beautiful and so are you for taking such good care of your Mom! I know it makes both of you feel great to be so close to each other! Can't wait to see the rest.

Me encanta la habitación de su madre, se ve muy refrescante, sobre todo me encanta como se ve la maceta en esa jaula, simplemente preciosa. Espero también ver el resto de la habitación. Saludos
What a lovely bedroom your mom has. I can see where you get your talent. I also want that teapot lamp! Too cute. x Sharon
Such a bright and cheerful space :) Who wouldn't want to spend time in there.
Your moms room is very pretty, I love the beautiful quilt on her bed.
Thanks for the chance to see it and I look forward to seeing more.
Have a lovely evening.
Hugs, Cindy
What a warm, pretty and cheerful space. Hope to see you at My Dream Canvas.

Beautiful room, Martina! I can see where you get your wonderful taste! Your mom's bedding is so pretty ... love the lamp ... and the furniture, itself, is gorgeous! You're so fortunate (as is she) that this worked out the way it did! What lucky grandkids she has, too! xo
What a gorgeous room, Martina.
I love the maple furniture. When we were in TN last year, I found several pieces of maple, in pristine condition, in an antique mall. A pair of twin beds, dresser and other pieces. I wish we had come home got the truck and gone back and bought it!!
I love the idea of an apartment for your mother, within your home. Just absolutely wonderful!
Such a blessings for you and your family to have mom so close! Beautiful room Martina, I just love her furniture!
Martina, how wonderful to have her close by! Her bedroom is so sweet and just so pretty, I know she must just love it! Anxious to see her new sofa when it comes in. Thanks for sharing!
