All you need is love......


One project that I have been working on here at Oasis has been to redecorate our guest houses. We have 2 guest houses that just needed a little love and care. A few splashes of paint, some lamps, rugs and a few pieces of furniture would do. One of the guest houses is a fabulous space. It has an upstairs and downstairs (rare here) and a living room on both floors.   Sorry this is just an AFTER. I wish I had the BEFORE.  It's pretty different.

Lots of windows for natural light and a great space for gardens outside. What guest wouldn't want to stay there?  We already had furniture in the house so we just needed to take what we had and make it look good.  Our aim was to make it feel like a home, not a frugal guest house.

This is the upstairs living room. The furniture was originally downstairs but we decided it would be best up.  I love this burnt orange/reddish color.
One of the many bathroom redo's.  I think this house has 5 bathrooms. They love colored bathrooms here. Baby blue, puke pink and tan with flowers.  When one piece of the bathroom breaks, such as the toilet, it's hard to find the right color to replace it so then we end up with 6 different shades of blue in a bathroom. We decided to replace all of the bathrooms with all white --tiles, toilet, sink and tub.  I love a white bathroom.



Trey's photography work is displayed all around the house.


I don't know why, but I love this cabinet for the linen closet.  In these houses, there are no built in closets, so you have to buy them.  This closet up close has a nice texture to it (but a funny smell from the stain).  It filled in a nice empty space well.

Love it all! Looks like you're getting some good practice at making your Inn! Maybe your first in can be funded by Oasis. "The Oasis Inn" kinda has a nice ring to it. We'll be there in November!! :)
