THE BIG REVEAL

After a very long Sunday, countless command strips and an extremely patient husband...  I can finally reveal the finished room I posted about here ! (My Inspiration)   I have been collecting these various treasures piece by piece over the past few years...     so it was a lot of fun to have so many things to work with in freshening up my college son's bedroom / new guest room. We have a fairly small home, just under 1800 sq. ft.,  so it made sense to have this room do double duty while giving it a more mature feel. It's interesting to think back over each find and how they all came together to create this "new space." I felt like a stylist working with so many great props! I guess subconsciously I had been creating this look in my head without really realizing it.   It's a pretty small room as room sizes go...   and even though I packed quite a bit into it I think it works. I found this antique Chinese tole tea bin from Englan...

Bed Love

Recently a close friend of mine was telling me how she had spent the weekend shopping for bedding for her oldest son who is away at college.  She wanted to tweak his bedroom at home so as to entice him to come and visit once in a while.  He happens to be on Winter Break from Cal at the moment. He obliged his mother while she enthusiastically pulled together several options to show him. He patiently waited until she was through with her presentation and then simply said two words, "think opulent". Do you think he meant this?     image of John Robshaw's bedroom in House Beautifu l
