A couple of days ago I showed you the chair I painted white for my
studio. Well my studio has a bed too. I finally finished painting the bed
which was my intention all along.
The bed and chair used to look like this.
But everything looks so much brighter and happier now.
I still have to paint the walls and have not decided on the color yet. They
are currently beige. The color choices are a soft sage green, an off white
or perhaps a pale blue. All of these colors are in the room in some fashion
right now as well as pink and spots of yellow. The room is an eclectic mix
of vintage, garage sale and old family treasures.
This little stool belonged to my grandmother. I painted it white and
covered it in some fabric that I plan to use in Mom's bedroom when I
start working in there.
But for now, I want to get this room finished before I move on to the big
project in her room. And what is Bentley doing while all of this is
going on ~ well napping of course!

What a beautiful room! Love the color you painted the bed, so pretty! I've always wanted to try sage green on my bedroom walls...such a soothing color!
ReplyDeleteWe painted out master bedroom walls a light sage and we love it. Very restful.
DeleteThat room just makes me smile! It's all so perfect!
ReplyDeleteI love, love love it!
Cindy
Makes me smile too. It's a happy room.
Deletewow... Susiepoo you have done an amazing job on this room.. I adore it all .. I may have to kinda sorta copy you.. well at the the colors and a chair for my guest room:)
ReplyDeleteor better yet you could take a little vacation to NC and just tutor me lol.. you sit back, sip a mint julep and tell me what to do and I'll do it..
big nc hugs to you and a soft pat on the head to Bentley.
Sonny
I would love to visit you and mint juleps are a real favorite of mine!

Now I remember when you first moved and showed your studio and I loved it then and didn't think it could be improved but oh my goodness I love it this way too! So soft and pretty and feminine....it was that way before but now even more so !! It's like a dream room :)
ReplyDeleteI always intended to paint these pieces. Just did not have the time before.
DeleteSo pretty, Susan. I think Bentley definitely approves. xo
ReplyDeleteHe's pretty comfy that's for sure.
DeleteGreat job, Susan! The room looks lovely with white furniture and soft beautiful colours :)
ReplyDeleteAutumn hugs from Australia♥ ~Pernilla
This room looks lovely, Susan. I like the lighter look for the bed and chair. Absolutely love the design of that chair. Bentley looks so comfy!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved the design of this chair too. It was Mom and Daddy's chair and they had it in their family room.
DeleteWhat a beautiful room. I would love to rest here. If you want another place to party, please come share at the Bacon Time linky.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mindie!
DeleteWell, I can tell that Bentley has good taste! :-) It is lovely.
ReplyDeleteBentley is not too choosy about design, but he sure does love a comfy pillow!
Deleteso pretty painted the light color, really fresh and feminine!
ReplyDeleteIt is a girly room.
DeleteI love the pretty colors for Spring. Sometimes when I come here...like today....I have to look closely to see if it's the real furniture or the doll house! heehee! Very beautiful decorating my friend! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteIs it real or is it mini me? I have to ask myself that too sometimes.
DeleteSusan, If you don't mind me saying I think that an off white would be the best. that way you can change the color any time you want ~ with pillows or accents ~ Love what you are doing ~ love you
ReplyDelete(((Hugs)))
Off white is high on the list. Love you too!
DeleteI love it all soo pretty a fine job Susan ! Bentley is like Miggs as long as they have their spot nothing else matters lol ! Thanks for sharing . Have a good day!
ReplyDeleteYes ~ Bentley is just like your Miggs.
DeleteSuch a beautiful room! I love the furniture painted white, and there's the twin to my rug!! I think Bentley has the right idea!
ReplyDeleteYes I remember ~ we have the same rug. How cool is that!
DeleteWhat a pretty room! All the things you've put together in there look so cottagey and sweet. The white painted furniture is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen any bloggers post rooms painted with Sherwin Williams Sea Salt? I haven't seen it in person but in pictures it's such a pretty color.

I have a Sherwin Williams shop nearby. I will check it out.
DeleteThe room is looking bright and happy.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteOh I love it!! What a pretty room!
ReplyDeleteI love it! You did a wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Such a sweet and pretty bed! Very pretty colors and I love the little pillow on your chair - you know, the one Bentley is snuggling with - what a cutie pie!
ReplyDeleteI love that pillow too. I have a passion for needlepoint.
DeleteYour bed and the whole room for that matter looks so comfy and cheerful. Personally, I think it would be hard to get anything done in you beautiful studio since that bed would be calling out to me all the time to come take a relaxing nap. LOL.
ReplyDeleteEven though the bed looks and is comfy, I have never napped there. The sofa in the family room ~ well that's a different story.
DeleteThat chair is wonderful. Bentley is too sweet curled up in it. thanks so much for the visit, Olive
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome Olive. It feels really good to be out visiting old friends once again.
DeleteThe room looks beautiful and so does the chair!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Deb
Thank you Debbie!
DeleteWhat a precious, welcoming room! I love it, Susan. I can see why Bentley is right at home in the pretty chair. I love the quilt and the footstool, too!
ReplyDeleteI am happy with the way that foot stool turned out too.
DeleteWhat an amazing transformation of your bed and chair. Really looks nice after a lot of work and time.
ReplyDeleteThank you LV. I really enjoyed it.
DeleteThe bed and chair look fantastic, so comfy. My daughter has a beautiful sage green bedroom which I love, so relaxing. And I painted my bedroom and bath the lightest softest blue. I had it done just before having back surgery and when I came home to recuperate it was so comforting. I have never regretted painting it blue.
ReplyDeleteI love soft blues. So restful. Hope you are feeling well after your back surgery.
DeleteIt is all so beautiful, any color you choose with look wonderful. Bentley is adorable when he naps. :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't he though!
DeleteYour flare for interior design is inspiring!
ReplyDeleteAwww ~ you are sweet for saying so.
DeleteWhat a beautiful and cozy room! I recently painted my dark bed white and love it. Really lightens up the room. I love the stool and the fabric is so sweet. Bentley sure knows a good thing when he sees it! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Bentley has the unique ability to find and claim every comfy spot in the house!
Deletebeautiful! I love the white bed, it looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI don't always like to paint furniture, but in this case I think it improved the lines of the bed.
DeleteHi Susan What a transformation. Isn't it amazing what paint will do? I love all your other cozy touches in the room too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rhondi!
DeleteHi Susan! Lovely to catch up with you and Bentley! Love your studio bedroom - the white-wash is so cheerful. Thirty years ago, we were stripping everything and restoring the original wood color. Today - we paint and shabby our furniture. Except me - my husband likes the wood look. Manly, I suppose. Now - as to your walls, in the photo, they look like a happy yellow color and splendid with your decor. Like sunshine! Hope you give yellow a shot.
ReplyDeleteJoy!
Kathy
Well, have you ever seen pics of my family room. Tons of stained wood it there. I have been tempted to paint it but there is no way that is happening as far as hubby is concerned. It is really cozy though.
DeleteGreat job on painting the bed. The transformation is incredible. Happy Pink Saturday! Xoxo Marti
ReplyDeleteThanks Marti

Your bed is so beautiful....I just LOVE it. I also love the way you have it angled in the room. Such a pretty bedroom....
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful, Susan! Love the sweet stool too! I will be featuring your post in this week's Home and Garden Thursday,
ReplyDeleteKathy
I love the chair!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so lovely. Bentley is extra cozy in this sweet room too. Hugs P.S> you can still link up to my Thursday hop and share your lovely blog, come on over. I just hopped over from Pink Saturday ♥
ReplyDeleteSusan, what a wonderfully relaxing room you've created! I've been traveling in S. America for almost 3 weeks, and I can't begin to tell you how inviting your newly-painted bed looks. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'm only now learning of your Mom's passing. Know I'm praying for you as you do the hard work of grieving. The room you're creating with special memories of her will be wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI like it when people come together and share ideas.
