When my boyfriend and I started looking for a house this past Summer,we both agreed we needed a house that could accommodate all of my collections. The house we chose was built in 1927 and has every little quirk that makes older homes so damn charming!
The upstairs (where my closet is) transports you to the 70's with these black spindles separating the little loft area with an equally kitschy rock garden basket handing over the railings. If you walk down the long, wood paneled upstairs hallway you'll find a little (and I mean little) pantry like door where my closet is located.
It used to be a little girls room that looks over the front yard, so naturally I'd take it over for myself 😊
The first picture is the little area where I store all of my lingerie collection new & old. In part two, I'll go into more detail about the IKEA dresser I use to store them! I like to this of this little area as an altar of sorts where I keep my little knick knacks and things that inspire me.
This bottom picture is what you see when walking into the closet. We just moved in, in August so we are still shifting and moving things around. The previous owner ripped out all of the flooring so I'm left with the floor base until we can afford to find new flooring. Hidden behind my Coral Chiffon robe in the corner is a built-in wall dresser that I use for random things of no importance.
I have to say that at night, when I enter the room, I see the outline of my mannequin & headdress and have a mini panic attack every time.
Below is a 1940's dresser I purchased when I first moved out of my parent's home at age 18. It was one of my first bigger purchases living on my own, so it will always have a special place in my heart 💗
This is by far one of my most unorganized places in my closet, but sometimes there's beauty in the madness or in my case mess.
This little corner is a work in progress. The framed picture of Bettie Page I bought when I was in Junior High. There's an Antique Mall in Moorhead, MN that I would always get these glossy photos from and this was one I RELISHED! It was my first introduction to her & fetish.
The two pink, plastic figures are bits from my "Campus Cuties by Marx Toys" collection. I prefer the pink ones, but the majority of my collection are the off white kind.
The risque dice tray is part of another collection I've been accumulating of Naughty Games. I seriously think I have a collection for everything 😜
The little cards & notes are from sellers I've purchased things from. I LOVE how there are Etsy & Ebay sellers that send little personalized notes and gifts. It means SO MUCH to buyers.
My Part Two of the room tour will hopefully be posted sometime next week, but I've been getting VERY distracted lately by the warmer Winter weather we've been getting here in Fargo! I am trying to get better and more consistent 😉
