Kremb de la Kremb Cabin: The Family Room

Family Room

Last week I started telling a bit about the history of our cabin on Spirit Lake, Idaho. While we’re out here enjoying the beauty of this magical spot for our family, I would like to try to capture some of the special spots within the cabin that carry so many of our memories. As mentioned the cabin is a bit like a motel with three rooms below the screened in porch accessed each by their own doors. Each room has its own name, and today I’ll be showing you The Family Room. Most family rooms in a house are where the family congregates: it’s usually by the kitchen, the family can watch TV there together, or it’s the room where everyone hangs out. For us The Family Room is the room that can sleep a family. There’s a queen bed and another day bed. It’s cozy yet the most spacious of our three rooms plus it has the most windows. We’ve made it especially unique by turning it into our Indian Room as well. It’s decorated with old antique pictures of Indian families–that no, we do not know. Paisley and lanterns are also a part of the decor. Enjoy a peek of The Family Room!

We’ve placed wicker chairs outside this room. It offers a bit of a sitting room vibe for The Family Room. This spot is a great place for morning coffee.

Family Room 10

We were able to collect some really special furniture while living in India. This hutch was purchased on a trip to Jodhpur. We bought several pieces from Mr. Singh. The lantern was also purchased down in Chor Bazaar in Mumbai, India. India has amazing light fixutres!

Family Room 3

While we don’t know a single individual on this wall, the images are special all the same. Living in India was a very special time of our lives; hence, we have a kindred relationship to all things Indian.

This mirror tray is a recent addition. Every summer during after the Spirit Lake 4th of July Parade, there’s a little fair type gathering in the city’s park. For me, I beeline to the vintage seller I stock up on every summer. She wasn’t selling this tray, but when I asked her if she would, she did since I’m such a frequent customer. The crucifix was given to me for my First Communion.

Family Room 9

We have so many little Ganeshas everywhere–I honestly don’t remember where this little guy came from. The majestic elephant in the background was a part of the antique collection of Indian images.

While Gigi was snapping these pictures she zoomed in and caught this beautiful picture of the butterfly outside this room
