Perhaps there are better ways to pay homage to your Scottish ancestry than papering the entire bathroom in your clan’s tartan. A nice plaque or something? A small throw over the back of the couch? Remember, plaid is like bagpipes: Too much makes people want to stab themselves. Uh, I mean, a little goes a long way. (Actually, I love me some bagpipes. But I’m serious about the plaid).
This simplified and pared down look comes from Angela at Fixing it Fancy. I am diggin the driftwood mirror and dresser turned vanity. And that light fixture! She originally wanted a similar version for, but it cost $1,500. (what?!) So she decided to make one herself and spent less than $20! DIGGIN it.

Thanks for sharing! 🙂
