Great place! Makes me feel like I've stepped back in time looking at these photos. That shelving unit in the living room is amazing can you tell me more about it?

Hi!
Jessi here...Thank you so much for your nice comments!
To answer your questions the awesome blue shelf in the living room was a craigslist find. I wish I could claim to have made it but it was actually made by the grandfather of the girl who sold it to me. We really lucked out in finding it!
I spotted the owl painting at a local Goodwill. I nearly fell over some other shoppers trying to get to it! We share the same taste in paintings and cats, I guess! haha
Thank you again I really appreciate your comments!

I love how so many of us include our pets in the photos :) Nothing warms up a home like a curled up cat or curious pup!

I like the portraits on the wall and the bedroom with the large owl painting. Not sure how the baby blue and pink bathroom ties in with the color scheme of bright kitchen and bedroom.
