Throw Back Thursday: Bohemian Treehouse

<div style="text-align: center;">Alright guys, a long time ago I shared a treehouse styling makeover. When I shared the post, I didn't have very many followers. When I look back at<span style="color: #ea9999;"> <a href="http://tiffanyleighinteriordesign.blogspot.ca/2012/07/reveal-bohemian-treehouse.html">the comments</a></span> though, it warms my heart to see some of the people who have supported me from the very beginning! Big hugs to those wonderful women.<br />Recently this treehouse has been getting some Pinterest action, so I thought maybe it was time to share it again with the followers who have since joined the Tiffany Leigh community.<br /><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJpke6XZNjNIBL20w4Ec8UkE7fvOH9Q6v6uBSqmkQy0kxGvd6Y7711xUaZoSsQR9-MTIgILnR4KqxpJuTjXHXkqNjAP2hKHAMWxa9lagAPhvlUfoUkCqJAJZaDTo6-y7ZfsBale6Lxvt9w/s640/044.JPG" width="480" /><br /><b>Back story:</b><br />When I was a <strike>bratty</strike> angelic youth, I used to run away sometimes. This treehouse in my backyard is where I would go and threaten to live for the rest of my life. Total bad ass, I know. Back in those days, it was fairly uninhabitable and my moving out usually lasted about twenty minutes (felt like an eternity though!).<br /><br />Two summers ago, I felt that I needed this space as an escape again and decided to style it as a bohemian style reading retreat. It was in a sad state (hadn't been used in years) but I managed to breath some new life into it:<br /><br /><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPTbBYQfCLq3JeaM_7o9KXzHIfXvkL5UehrtRweGlrUAhGnw5Trl5EmVKAaOLpKrOB1LqARyFJcpbA-vpwlCJPVJO5-lT3GKS049M3cUpkz8-FSpftgDzCnPesfdvbnPIIeqkaVGCXE3n2/s640/treehouse.jpg" width="640" /><br /><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0krcGEPPwanhpqYYWSQtX7dImTKMmhBAGCGyikG9kXnH7uXU6WyeCea8fBoDvd6sEGMO6iv7hHWjQ6W6CzqdPZEqeTtzExRu5VZ_btzvssF0sMDa_OhZiVsE1QH4bez5YsCEWtFCbfEM_/s640/022.JPG" width="640" /><br /><br />And here is the Treehouse After:<br /><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLxswVXZI78YSorECYTwigM3MorI8K51CiP-idL4P_CKsQobzpIM8QT2AQ8oQ-qtZcmd1_ZKeotpWN7qOeg7tsXQ8qV3m51yEAKVRPARziJCyt5gTp9M2_6tutjGQv1vGymrMF9g3dtSdC/s640/053.JPG" width="408" /><br /><br /><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvqE0DaycOH0qVbF8oMTUjiARSlwXK1e-1oZaC9JH-4v4qODJOSIED3YHzgZqYU2MVC-bebxr68YT0i4tvVswlKQFkKihfnNMHgcjDAYKMvdBKlEJe2LwvUrIPDk8eYXKreSRCciawPahf/s640/031.JPG" width="640" /><br /><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix0pEGI-OKFK83Ta0w8zN_0m5dMteKRaVd9DRM9mZEgOKpqkvqJtoEnTQsr7SJf1bB3ly8gWaxn9W2x7qMLSvDdxnncly73rZlva5r9l-F6ebVvS0EgoRIDtU7f8mv4aZep5O1kx7-eV59/s640/030.JPG" width="480" /><br /><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNeUdj1UejMHJopuFL6UUTM0xkSsjQAnv8LAlZMUhJyf_m3i0dKpsNoxvJSKEe3fpr6RkP3XM1cKwMQzA1eth8_iKA-WM7DboZRRV5U6Eqm8_x_b2qnqBo2hqBGjYG79hu-mxYFwNZuca0/s640/034.JPG" width="480" /><br /><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEXNwami47o5WGQi5zU-bHlAgQsjnmwoKE67FQT0XGRdJ0Orim28M2WzC9VaqHc8FR4pn9zkyEtXz0l8mXoyMoyziM-vYA0oKcTwmdHMMOCKb41wQrc5q4cT3DvvdTpsA2DV4DcV0Y0kJ_/s640/028.JPG" width="640" /><br /> Check out the original post <a href="http://tiffanyleighinteriordesign.blogspot.ca/2012/07/reveal-bohemian-treehouse.html"><span style="color: #ea9999;">here</span></a>. <br />Makes me miss home a little bit!

I graduated from the University of Guelph with a degree in Honours English before deciding to pursue and education in Interior Design and can honestly say that reading is one of my most beloved past times. While I enjoy a good fluffy book now and again, my heart truly lies in the classics. Wuthering Heights, The Great Gatsby, The Picture of Dorian Gray, my list of favourites goes on and on (as does my list of Bucket List Books). I dream of owning a home one day that can house my collection. I amassed quite a few books while studying at Guelph, and want to add so many more!<br /><br />I dream of a moody, library-dining room combo. It's on my dream house wishlist.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE8a_sQOFMboN46TnkSuZwER94D8jTNqs_eOsz2CQipOB9VzXvRd5fT8ThyFRpRMvwA3LXrT9r1dInlPGqkXh-T7xbIFglhdh2XnRrCd3r6c9MeGhat1pRiJVk7yjpHkkM3Zp-Awd6GkI/s1600/library+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE8a_sQOFMboN46TnkSuZwER94D8jTNqs_eOsz2CQipOB9VzXvRd5fT8ThyFRpRMvwA3LXrT9r1dInlPGqkXh-T7xbIFglhdh2XnRrCd3r6c9MeGhat1pRiJVk7yjpHkkM3Zp-Awd6GkI/s640/library+1.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.nateberkus.com/interiors/" target="_blank">via Nate Berkus</a></td></tr></tbody></table><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi91k7Ie9q74CZPlEGUeBWUw8jYJMALzzYKbS35ka2NWrWw5KYjbmHCgYcbu0fw8nxOTexONpIUsrEhkk-MQ2IVxdA21jkr2EQ-dc9CmOjUNNLkKiDbW801t05j8O86zl63eU-Q6GPUKy8/s1600/library+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="604" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi91k7Ie9q74CZPlEGUeBWUw8jYJMALzzYKbS35ka2NWrWw5KYjbmHCgYcbu0fw8nxOTexONpIUsrEhkk-MQ2IVxdA21jkr2EQ-dc9CmOjUNNLkKiDbW801t05j8O86zl63eU-Q6GPUKy8/s640/library+2.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/398216792021503848/" target="_blank">via</a></td></tr></tbody></table><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyGL1U699S1jMFDkavh3NuwRYWfrBlVjiM5EDvEyN9-gXqcJZ_Uaw45Fqf-nXadDPl_MNq7ElGG7kd0CFdcycqGLzneeYmn7ScLlu3PUKDQzvrRrpQz_O5GdLjB1qtiM7dsLWBOXuDgic/s1600/library+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyGL1U699S1jMFDkavh3NuwRYWfrBlVjiM5EDvEyN9-gXqcJZ_Uaw45Fqf-nXadDPl_MNq7ElGG7kd0CFdcycqGLzneeYmn7ScLlu3PUKDQzvrRrpQz_O5GdLjB1qtiM7dsLWBOXuDgic/s640/library+3.jpg" width="508" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/10696117835009477/" target="_blank">via</a></td></tr></tbody></table>So lovely, no?
