As I start to write, I remember I FORGOT to buy tulips
to put in the milk glass vase right beside the bed...
Awwww...
I will do that in the next few days and update this post!
Otherwise it will never get done!
So here it is, TA-DAAAAAA!!!!!
Isn't it pretty???
Note the Sparkly Chandelier!!!
It looks so much better on the ceiling, LOL!
This "bedside" lamp I got for $40 on Craigslist... I thought it looked so cute...
Note the milk glass vase, "sans" tulips...
The picture shows my mom, my mother-in-law and my son when he was about 5 years old...
I always think of my mom in this room.
She was the first one to stay here so I designed (Ikea mostly, at the time) for her.
Now it is updated with Craigslist finds and Condensed Love...
She now has a little mat to put her feet when she gets out of bed.
I HAD to get this Ikea comforter cover just because it had pink roses on it.
It matches with the pink mirror...
I painted this Table and Mirror not too long ago...
You can see better here.
I don't get tired of looking at it!!! I want to lie down on that bed right now...
Here is the chandelier again!!! Sorry, I started using a Mac instead of my laptop, everything is confusing... Give me a few days... For now, the photos will be out of order!!!
Ikea dressers from a long time ago...
My paper flowers moved from the fireplace to here!
These red candles were given to me in a hotel in Paris. The pictures are both from the Notre Dame.
A guy was selling them in front of the Louvre and I bought I think both for 25 Euros...
Of course, it cost more than $100 to frame each at Michael's.
The roses in the jar are from Superstore, they look like they are made of wood? But they are light. And unscented. I thought it would look better than the old green popourri (spelling???) I had there.
If you are lying down on the bed, here is what you see... the tree in front of the neighbour's house.
I have to show the lights again...
And the bed...
Hey, it looks like someone was on that pillow already!!!

ReplyDeleteJust stopped by via the linky-party. I am currently doing up 2 teenagers rooms (one at a time) and always on the lookout for ideas to show them. I LOVE the paper flowers. I think I will pin them for future reference. thanks for sharing your gorgeous room.
ReplyDeleteHi, Dee!!!
DeleteThank you so much for coming over!!!
I got this tutorial for the flowers, I posted it here,
it came for another blogger. She actually did them in brown paper. But I made mine in ivory paper and I put a little sticker in the middle. It cost me $10 for this project!
You can always take them down when they get dusty!To stick them in the wall I used a double sided sticky little square, in the tutorial she said to use glue dots.
Check this post and it will lead to the tutorial:

It's come together beautifully. The chandelier looks great with the light through it and I love you bed linen. The views charming as well.
ReplyDeleteHope your week is going well

ReplyDeleteThank you!!! I am so glad you like it!!!
DeleteI was telling Kika I have to be careful not to make the house look like it belongs in the interior of Brazil, like a little ran down house... This room is kind of borderline grandma/little house on the Prairies house, lol!
Last night David snored so much I seriously thought about going to sleep there!!!
Your room turned out so fantastic. I am LOVING the chandy and the paper flowers on the wall. They look fabric almost in the photos. I'd love, love, love to have them in my bedroom. I see above you've shared a tutorial - I will def be checking it out but I doubt if mibe will turn out as pretty as yours. Thanks for sharing. I am coming to you from "fridays unfolded"
ReplyDeleteHi, Roxanne!!!
DeleteThank you so much for the kind comment!!! I am so glad you liked it!!! At first I put the flowers in my fireplace...
I saw the lady (from the tutorial) making these on Nate Berkus Show! I bought my bags at Walmart, they cost more I think about $10 for 2 packs of bags. I made all the flowers you can see from those bags. I put a little sticker in the middle but you can even put a button or just roll a piece of paper and put in the middle. Such a great effect!
I a very happy how this room turned out with thrifty things!!! Thanks for coming over!!
It´s beautiful!! I love it all white!
