It seems like this room has certainly taken me a while to complete;
however, no room is ever complete, right?
You have seen so many sneak peeks, so no more sneak peeks today!
More Peeks of the Guest Room Makeover
March 18, 2015 By
I have been searching for one more pillow to add to the bed.
I ordered one from Pottery Barn; however, the shade of green was not the right one.
In the meantime, I found a pillow that I had on hand and it seems to work well
with the new bedding.
I am still on the hunt for the perfect one though.
Ikea Hack Ritva Drapes

Ikea Ritva drapes hang in the guest room flanking the french doors.
I love the texture of the Ikea Ritva drape. Mine are white and they needed a little punch of color.
Well, if you call black and white a punch of color! 🙂
I purchased some fabric from the On-Line Fabric Store and had my friend Linda add the fabric
as trim.
Guest Room Makeover Sneakie Peekie
February 23, 2015 By
I cannot tell you how long is has been taking me to re-decorate this guest room.
I have been working on this a little at a time, in-between other projects and activities.
A few more tweaks, a little more painting, a few more things to purchase
and it will be done . . . however, you know that nothing is ever done.
I had the Pottery Barn Sienna Paisley on this bed previously.
The paisley design had soft hues of blue, green and white.
That particular bedding has been in the room for a few years now and it was time for a change.
As soon as I saw this Darcy Toile Bedding in the Pottery Barn Catalog, I knew this was the
the pattern and look I was going for in this room.
I so love the patterns of Toile and Chinoiserie.
In an earlier post I spoke of an item that my hubby spotted when we were at Pottery Barn last week.
Here it is . . . a black glass cabinet with a mirrored back that actually is made for hanging,
however, I thought that it would look great on this table (for now at least) and goes so well
with the black accents on the room and the iron bed.
I mentioned earlier that I was still working on a piece of furniture.
Here is a bit of a peek . . . still needs a bit more painting and new hardware.
I found the lamp I had in mind for the writing desk at HomeGoods. A Drexel Heritage at a great price.
Still tweaking the wall and table top decor, but I think it won’t be too long before this room
will be finished; however, as I said before, a room is never finished, it is always evolving,
like all things in life. It just keeps things interesting and fun.
I wish you a most glorious day!
