See How Fashion Relates to Interiors

Hi Everyone,

Cynthia Rowley just recently advertised one of  her beautiful new dress  designs for Spring.  In My opinion, Its feminine yet simple and elegant and really the subtle touches in the details makes the design.  Ruffles around the neck and bodice, plus the interesting graphic design printed on the bottom portion of the dress.  Now lets take a  look at similar images as these dresses and translate them to the pretty rooms with interesting details.

Similar pastel colors in the painting and pillows.   Nailhead details on the furniture and pinch pleat sewing technique on the pillows.  The graphic design is mimicked on the rug.

We have all seen this beautiful image from Joanna Gaines, Fixer Upper.  Lots of pretty details similar color palette.

If you love this look in bedding, Bella Notte has beautiful cotton and linen bedding with all the gorgeous details.

Fashion  design very much correlates to interiors.  I wish I was a few years younger! I might just have to purchase that dress:)

Warmly,

Pretty in White Bedroom Reveal

Hi Everyone,

Difficult to believe this week is almost done...time flies when you are having fun.... I would have to say this bedroom is just my style.  Its has a vintage feel, with collected objects and whimsical details.  I think perfect for a little girls retreat.  This bedroom of course had a few DIY projects, my favorite being the lamp shade covers.  Such an easy DIY project with a big impact.  I will show you how I created these lamp shade covers in my next post.  I also painted the branches above the bed and added fabric covered rosettes to the wall.  Tutorial here for the rosettes.  My inspiration for the painted branches came from this lovely blog.  So here we have the finished project.

View from the door, I know bad lighting.

The headboard I repainted in a shutter gray several years ago and her bedding we had already.  Unfortunately, I don't remember where I got them.  That sweet pillow I purchased last year from Pottery Barn Kids on clearance and I took the same branch theme and painted it on the wall.  I  thought it would be easier  to paint the wall, since I am not sure this is our forever home and didn't want to rip down wallpaper.

It was so magical to see my little girls face when she saw the completed projects and her finished room.  She was smiling ear to ear, a win-win...I am  in my element creating for my little sweeties.

Happened upon these beautiful images on Pinterest this week that I thought I would share.  I wish there were more hours in a day to blog, peruse pinterest and read others blogs...maybe someday when my sweeties are older...

Little Sister's Big Girl Bedroom Reveal

Hi everyone,

 I hope your week has been great! Once again I spent the week putting the finishing touches on Jordan's room. I can now say it is finally done.... thankfully.  This makeover was relatively budget friendly, exception being the purchase of the frame and mattress.
Jordan loves her new room, especially one of her favorite dresses, now to small for her, but is used as an accessory on the wall.  I toyed with the idea of framing it, but knew it would compete with the windows above.

 

I just finished completing these panels, with a blue/gray linen fabric purchased from Joanns' with a 40% off coupon.  The wing upholstered chair, my toughest DIY  to date,  is nestled in a corner, with a linen pillow I pulled together a few weeks ago.  The quilt, her grandmother sewed several years ago and I can't quite depart with.  The art work I completed a few days ago, too.

 



The dresser was previously in her other room, I just painted a mirror I had on hand and added a little fluff.

 

I purchased all the bedding at target in the shabby chic section.  I love the trendy fabric with the traditional shabby chic!

 

A view of the other side of the bed. 

A wooden artwork I stenciled with gray and yellow oil paint.  Her birth date is stenciled in the corner and difficult to read.   I couldn't find the right angle to photograph.

 The artwork I painted using left over paint and I used chalkboard paint underneath.  I know to some it may look undone, but I kind of like the less formal straight line look. 

 

So there it is...the finished bedroom.  Now to tackle the MESS behind that door!

 Thanks so much for viewing this blog.  Please let me know what you all think...I do love to read all your sweet comments.  

Enjoy your weekend!!

XOXO

SK
