Designed with Love

One of my BFF's recently

remodeled her guest room

this gal is a very talented seamstress

soooooo.........

She selected a pretty material

(to compliment her

newly painted walls) and made

these beautiful drapes!!

and she found the Romeo and Juliette

print at her local charity shop

(She is the queen of bargain shopping)

The room is still a work in progress

but I think it's looking great!

This dear friend has a May birthday

so I decided to re-design

something special for her new room

as my birthday gift

My creative juices are flowing

a little slow these days

but I finally stumbled upon

a piece at an estate sale

that inspired me!!

It was a cute little chair

that needed a lot of TLC

I love transforming the ugly duckling

into the beautiful swan......so I paid my

$8.00 and hauled it to my car

Once home I gave it a good cleaning

a little glue here and there

and started mixing paint

to get a nice soft blue that would

compliment the drapes

THE FINISHED PROJECT!!

I added some little tiles

as a focal point

and used an old burlap

coffee sack to cover the seat

added a cute little

burlap heart pillow

and it's ready for Carol's newly

redone Guest Bedroom

Every Little Birdie says

I can't wait to spend the night

in this beautiful room!
