| I wanted to freshen up one of the spare bedrooms for spring, so I got out a very colorful chenille bedspread! It has two gorgeous blue peacocks on it ...lots of bright yellow...and some pink flowers. |
 |
| I paid $10 for this spread at a yard sale about 2 years ago... |
 |
| It is in very good condition...look at the pretty scallops on the side, |
 |
| I used our new dust ruffle that I bought at the auction for $15 (it was in a big box of linens) The .details are on the post "Estate sale Treasures" |
 |
| I used some vintage peacock pillow cases and some with a pretty blue trim crocheted on the side..... |
 |
| I hung this sweet Easter quilt on the foot board that I bought at the auction.... |
 |
| it was $5... |
 |
| all the squares have a cute bunny scene on them... |
 |
| H replaced the side tables with a pair of vintage sewing machines and added a small sewing rocker...... |
 |
| I decorated the top of the sewing machine with some bunny soaps that I got at the auction... |
 |
| aren't they cute? |
 |
| Here's Wumpy Wabbit... |
 |
| The two soap boxes were $10 |
 |
| This is the vintage sewing machine on the other side of the bed.... |
 |
| I hung a bright yellow painting over it... |
 |
| I did a clock vignette on the dresser.... |
 |
| with some vintage camera's and two peacocks to match the bedspread... |
 |
| H painted the closet doors in here a couple of weeks ago...I forgot to take a before picture, but they were really dark! We are still painting and are on the 7th gallon. We are going to do a mass painting of wicker furniture out in the backyard in a couple of weeks. I will take pictures! http://www.jenniferrizzo.com/2013/03/fabulously-creative-friday-linky-party.html http://www.craftyscrappyhappy.net/2013/03/the-inspiration-gallery-link-party-week-28.html http://www.simplydesigning.net/2013/03/simply-create-link-party-02.htm http://www.serenitynowblog.com/2013/03/weekend-bloggy-reading-link-up_22.html http://www.fivedaysfiveways.com/2013/03/feature-friday-free-for-all-59-helzburg.html http://frenchcountrycottage.blogspot.com/2013/03/feathered-nest-friday_21.html http://seevanessacraft.com/2013/03/do-something-crafty-81/ http://www.ladybirdln.com/2013/03/weekend-show-off-party.html http://whipperberry.com/2013/03/friday-flair-link-party-cement-easter-egg-edition.html |

Hi Penny,
ReplyDeleteI saw your bedspread on the Lakeshore Hop. Wow, it brings back so many memories of my mother. She would have been absolutely wild over it. It truly brought tears to my eyes. It is lovely and so is your decorating. I'm a new fan and new follower. If you have time hope you will visit my blog also and maybe you might want to follow back.
Best

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! What a steal on the chenille spread. It is beautiful. I love all the colors and it looks in like it is in terrific condition. Visiting from Lakeshore Drive and about to be your newest follower. I don't chenille bedspreads, but the azaleas are blooming. Hope you get a chance to visit!
