While I was at Texas Antique Weekend I found this great ticking fabric.
The color is much more aqua than it appears in this pic and it is going
to coordinate well with the the floral print you see. I plan to recover a
foot stool with it and a couple of throw pillows too.
I decided to hang these antique sconces on either side of the old door.
Daddy brought then back from Italy years ago. Time to call the
electrician!
I painted a set of three nesting tables in Annie Sloan's Provence.
By the way can you see the beautiful Azaleas just outside the window?
Too bad they don't bloom all year because they coordinate with the
decor :-)
Here is the third littlest of the nesting tables. I think it is so cute.
I am going to use it in front of the love seat. One must always have a
cute little table for a tea cup don't you agree?
You see what I mean ~ a tiny table for a teacup is an essential, both
for the decorating impact and for the soul.
Well that's it for today. Lots of work to do. I don't know about you
but when I am playing house I really get in the "zone". I go to a
zen place and the hours just fly by!
Bentley is in his own zen place ~ the comfy chair in my studio.

Hi Susan! The ticking fabric is sweet and I adore those gorgeous pillow shams. What a pretty room this is going to be. Well, it already it, you know what I mean. The little tables are so sweet too. Keep on zenning!

You are so busy...doing so much painting over the last two weeks and this and that, you make my head spin :) Love it all...as to those azaleas ours won't bloom up this way for ages yet :( I linked up a sewing machine cover that I made, inspired by yours a week or two ago. LOL I have meant to make one for 2 years and when I saw yours I finally did. Inspiration! :)
ReplyDeletePretty! The little peeks of that room are really enticing. It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteIt all looks just lovely and I do love the fabric of the shams and also the folded material!
ReplyDeleteI love that fabric! Can't wait to see it on the bench. Love the pillow fabric too!
