New Bedding

Last night I was able to get the new bedding put on the bed so the B&B is now open for business once again!

When I saw this plaid blanket at Target a few weeks back on clearance I knew I had to have it. I wanted to add a few masculine touches to the room and I figured this was the perfect piece. And no I did NOT pay the cat to sit on the bed. Max just thinks that he should be in all the pics lately!:) He was no where to be found till I got the camera out.

The quilt is from Target part of the Shabby Chic collection. I love the design on it.

Just a few accent pillows you have already seen. I can NOT wait till the head board is done and back in the room.

Since the head board is giving me all kinds of fits with stripping it I have pretty much decided to make it look a lot like this one.

I am dreaming about Sonya's Double Ruffle Box Pillows!! I think I really NEED me some for the bed!;) If you have not been over to Beyond The Screen Door I suggest ya pay Sonya a visit. You will not be disappointed! I wish I could sew as well as her or at least could have her as a neighbor!:) I could pay her to show me some of her tricks of the trade.

A few of you have been eye balling another new addition to the guest bedroom that I have failed to mention.

I purchased a lot of odds and ends a few months back and in that lot were not one but THREE sets of antique wood shutters! I was just waiting to find something to do with them and then  over the weekend it dawned on me to hang a set on either side of the window in here. They were already stained and work in the room just fine so one less thing to have to do. I am hoping to get them hung this weekend as well as the new curtains. 

Thanx for stopping by! I hope that your week is going well thus far. Hard to believe it is almost half over already.

  2. A great look for your room, Pamela. The shutters are going to look great. I love your plaid blanket. I have a flannel quilt in plaid that I made that I would love to fold on the end of our guest bed. I just need to find an affordable white or cream spread first (no Target here.)

  11. In the restoration of this old house of ours, I have stripped miles of molding. I don't know what you have tried to use to strip your headboard, but a heat gun is my favorite stripping tool. Get a heat gun, a flexible putty knife, a carbide pull scraper, and a melon baller, and you should be able to strip all the contours of the moldings on your headboard. If you need advice, I'll be glad to do what I can to help.

    Of COURSE cats have to check out all the new stuff and give it their seal of approval. It's a cat thing.
