| Our spring mantle in the bedroom has all the shades of lavender that are in the quilt on the bed. (If you want the details about the quilt, there is a post below this one.) |
 |
| I hung a beautiful vintage flamingo print over the mantle. I bought this picture at a yard sale a couple of years ago for .75! Yes .75! There were some missing mirror tiles on the frame, that were easily replaced. There was a small water stain in the top left corner that I covered with a floral design |
 |
| I love it, despite it's flaws! |
 |
| This is the floral design that I put over the water stain. |
 |
| This is a set of flamingos that my mother purchased in the 50's.... |
 |
| And these are some flamingos that I have found at yard sales. |
 |
| I replaced the red chair that was here for Valentines day with a wicker chair... |
 |
| This is a sweet little bunny doll that I bought a long time ago..I think from an ABC Catalog. Are they still in business or do you remember them? |
 |
| Here is a vintage pansy doily.. |
 |
| I still don't have the heart to take down my vintage wedding dress tree... |
 |
| So, I added some lavender flowers... |
 |
| lace... |
 |
| and left her up for spring! |
 |
| This is the chesser on the opposite wall... |
 |
| I added some vintage purple doilies... |
 |
| and a clock to the vignette. |
Here is a close up of the quilt... |
| I hope you have enjoyed the tour of our spring bedroom! |

ReplyDeleteHi Penny!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sending the bunny doll I bought at the Hospice store for $5 to a relative. Where can I start/begin to tell you all that I love about room. I love the pink and lavender flowers. The mirror I would have snapped up in a heart beat.
The white wicker is gorgeous. I love your dresser(?) that has the drawers at each side. I love to decorate using vintage pearls. Cute flamingos and from your mom makes them extra special. The lights at the bottom of the fireplace.
And did i say how much I LOVE how you use PINK!!!!

Hi Penny, Your springtime bedroom is gorgeous. Love your mantel and all the romantic touches you add. Your mother's quilt is beautiful and the colors are so soft and pretty. Love the sweet lavender sign hanging from the mantel.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiration. Hugs, Celestina Marie
A close friend collects flamingos so I'm going to send her to see yours-she'll love it. Everything ties together so perfectly-you've done a beautiful look.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing at "Easter Inspirations Linky Party"!
ReplyDeleteLove the flamingo's - have a few in my backyard and I snap them up whenever I can find them. Your bedroom is simply beautiful. Love your wedding dress tree - if you love it - leave it up and change the decorations for each season or holiday.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing....

Penny,
ReplyDeleteEverything is so pretty and i love the lavender touches!! One of my favorite colors!
That picture is so delightful and for that price to boot!! Sometimes , it is the flaws that make things so interesting, don't you think? It gives them character....
Love the fire place and mantle and you know I am always wishing I had room for one here!!
So pretty!!
It is 24 degrees here in the afternoon!! I am sure you are having nicer weather than we have right now. It is still hard to think of Spring with several snow and ice storms coming out way this week!!
Hugs,
Deb
