Hope everyone is having a wonderful Mother's Day...I know i have, Mr. Romantic made breakfast, did the dishes, and is working on the laundry, so i dont have alot of time here, ile have to check on him in a bit just to make sure a red sock doesnt end up in the whites, LOL...
Ive sure missed everyone, i know ive been hangin out in FB land and not posting enuff. So i think ile share what ive been up to today..The very shabby guest room, which u can see in my sidebar, has undergone a few changes today..Yea, ive been playin in there today, LOL...However i need ur help! Can u spot the changes?
Yep, besides a few bedding changes, this lamp was the biggest change. When i put it here i instantly loved it! To think this adorable little lamp almost made the yard sale table....LOL..
Anyway, heres where i need ur help, i have and old frame which i painted pink, it looks beautiful in this room, so i took a notion to hang it above the lamp, maybe placing a small mirror underneath. I quickly went to my art stash(everyone has one? right?) and this is what i narrowed it down to, but only one can make the cut...Please let me know which one u favor.....
Thanks for all of ur help, and ile let u know in my next post, promise it wont be months, LOL, how it turns out along with the new chandy and dresser in this room..........Happy Mother's Day!..........Bonnie
Since posting the completed Romantic eating area, ive received a few emails asking about the other side of the room.....I purposely didnt include the china cabinet, as i hadnt put the glass back in it after painting and i still am not happy with the knobs.....So i got right on it and put the glass back in , but ile keep on the hunt for the right knobs.............just thought u may wanna see "the other side" of the room. Enjoy the pics...............Bonnie
Only recently has this sweet young lady named Taylor captured our hearts since she's come to live with us.
She's been such a joy to have in our home. We've been tryin to get her room together, and make a place that she can really call home...However, since there isnt an over-abundance of this....
It's all taking just a wee bit longer, lol. Mr. Romantic bought me an old amoire for our 18th wedding anniversary, and i never quite figured out just where to put it til now. After abit of work , it looks fabulous in Taylor's room. She loves it, and ile admit i love the way it turned out. Before...........
And after, freshly painted with leftover pink from the masterbath, lightly golded over the details, and alittle chalkboard paint, leftover from the dining room project.........
Ignore the drawer pulls though, we are replacing them with crystal..
We've recently found a headboard, which ile be working on today, and painted the walls in "ultra white". We still have window treatments, artwork , and flooring to address, bedding is in the works. Thats all ile say til the big reveal.......ule have to come back soon.................Bonnie
Hi Bloggies, Im so pooped! Sis and i shopped til we dropped! More looking than buying though, LOL.....I will do a post soon of all our window shopping........Oh the things we saw.................Meanwhile heres a few pics of the tv room progress and the new furniture.......
Linking my feathered nest to Courtney's FNF. Better late than never, LOL. Also linking for the first time with "Between Naps On the Porch", "The House in the Roses" to show off my cottage...
As u all know, im busy re-doing the dining room. Ive finished the table and chairs, bought the benches , however the slipcovers for them arent quite finished. Penny came by today to do some measuring , and dropped off my new window treatment. U can see my dilema with the window here and get a glimpse of the table here. Im really happy with the way its all coming together so far. Penny really rocked this ballon shade though......
I know, thats probably overkill on the pics, but i was just tickled pink and giddy with the outcome........slipcovers coming soon!
