vintage style, cottage living, home cooking
This past week has been full, fun and exciting! My DIY Chalkboard Labeled Bathroom Bottles are SO EASY. They look fabulous in your bathroom or even a guest bath for visitors. I think they would even be a great gift for a guest to take home with them.

I hope you have been enjoying Simply The BEST of 2013!! Now it is my turn to share Simply The Best of 2013-What Meegan Makes. What Meegan Makes started on Dec 27, 2011. Yep, it has been 2 full years of posts, creativity, amazing followers, and lots of fun friendships. Thanks so much for joining me on this journey of What Meegan Makes. It was a very slow start. I was doing blogging all on my own until about a year ago. I “met” some amazing bloggers that invited me to their “groups” and “troops” to help spread the word about my blog. I am SO grateful from them. (There are too many to mention) I am a blessed woman, without a doubt.
I am looking forward to a new year full of ideas, inspiration and a new look. Hopefully, my blog will continue to be a place of inspiration, recipes, thrifting, and wonderful thoughts for you to visit each day. I also hope to make the blog more accessible for all of my readers and followers. It will be a fabulous year!!

Hello Hello!! It’s MY turn to share my home for the 12 Days of Christmas Home Tour.
I am thrilled to have you here. We live in a 950 square foot condo, and I like to fill it to the brim with Christmas. So let’s get on with the tour.
*This post was updated October 2025. The photography isn’t the best, but it brings back a lot of sentimental memories. As this post was a few weeks after my husband had a quadruple heart bypass. He is still here 12 years later. We are so blessed.
Happy Monday. I had a wonderful weekend spent with our kids and grand babies. I love when I am on my way home and my arms hurt form holding the babies so long. Best feeling ever! I have been working on the Christmas decorating around our home since before Christmas. I love this time of year and I am excited to share our Guest Bathroom Christmas Decor with you today.
In this room I decided to go VERY simple. I kept my blues, whites and added a little greenery and natural elements.
First off, I filled my lantern with pine cones and “snow”. It says Christmas to me. The (thrifted) demi-john bottle has just 1 sprig of greenery and berries for a Christmas touch, as well. The framed note was written to me by one of our sons when he was 5 yrs. old. It says, “I love you” Precious.
My Christmas angels are all in one place. Reminding us of all those who are watching over us daily. Each angel was given to me by someone very special and significant in my life.
The angel on the left is from my sweet friend Dianna. We are kindred spirits. No matter how far or long it has been when we see each other-it is as though it was yesterday.
The tall and middle angel is from my daughter Leora. She and her husband lived in Egypt for several months. She found a family that made Nativities from the red clay there. She knew how much I like angels and brought me this precious angel for Christmas.
The angel on the right is also from Dianna. When I was moving to another town. She bought me this as a going away gift. (Told you, kindred spirits)
The angels hanging below are from my Aunt Betty. She is and has been an angel in my life, my whole life.
You will also see that I added simple greenery to this shelf, too.
On my cute, blue cupboard I placed a few of my favorite things: books, coral from Maui, a ceramic bird, and simple greenery. Just the right Christmas touch.
And the icing on the cake in the bathroom is my wood tray filled with dried pomegranates, magnolia leaves, artichokes, and tree sprigs. Love these Christmas colors of red and green!!
I hope you have enjoyed my Guest Bathroom Christmas Decor today. It is always fun to share my home and Christmas ideas with you.
