Ready for the Bachman's Holiday Ideas House Part Two?

Today, I'll continue the tour of the Bachman's Holiday Ideas House!  If you are just joining in, you can visit my last post to see more!  The living room had a beautiful flocked tree and creatively wrapped gifts...

Now here's a fun idea...how often have you seen old fireplace sets at thrift stores?  They took the utensil holder and added a hook to hold a decorative candle jar!   I know I have one somewhere... and look at the cute little moss nests at the base, filled with ornaments...

Here's a cute way to use an old clock...

and a fun use for vintage watches...

Ornaments were decoratively hung from fishing line in front of the window...

How about the fireplace treatment using birch logs, poinsettias, and shutters?

An old grate serves as a tabletop, and the old glass ceiling light shade is filled with pebbles, making a lovely base for the candles and antlers!

Wouldn't you love to have this cute vintage doll bed which was repurposed as a dog bed?

I like the way glass shades were used to hold more battery operated candles...

and an old leather belt was wrapped around branches...

In an upstairs bedroom, was one of my favorite ideas~ an air hockey game was mounted on the wall as a whiteboard!  What sports fan wouldn't love this?

The lamps had hockey puck bases and the bed was made from hockey sticks...

as were the fun chair and coat rack...

Another bedroom had a fun artist area...

I love the vintage paint-by-numbers, and look at the paint brushes used as holders for paint cans full of supplies...

This is a fun way to display artwork...

and this hatbox looks great holding more supplies!

Old saddlebags are useful for storage, too...

as is an old iron crib side.

In my next post, I'll finish the upstairs (the FUN craft room) and show you some of the outdoors, too!  Hope you've found some inspiration!

Until next time...
