i'll share how & what i did later.......for now.......there is a bottle of locally made sherry to share with my husband of 16 years
you see: he was traveling during our anniversary on an out of the country trip as a temporary fisherman/free spirit, so I decided to surprise him with a complete bedroom transformation
he likes it

DeleteAnne Marie,
ReplyDeleteYou out did yourself on this beautiful new look. Your new bedroom is simply fabulous! What a wonderful surprise for your husband to come home to. Congratulation on 16 years of marriage!
Love from Texas~Donna
P.S. Wish you could come give me a few helpful pointers to transform my bedroom!
I would love to do that for you Donna! but did you see my friend Stacey (a sort of fairtytale) has now opened up an online decorating business?? she's the one you should ask to help :)
DeleteAnne Marie,
ReplyDeleteSo so pretty. Love it. What a beautiful gift to your husband.
I'm so glad you think it's pretty...I added a touch of pink there with that throw - but not too overwhelmingly "feminine" I hope!
DeleteIt's just lovely! It's pretty, serene and peaceful all in one room. Congratulations on your anniversary! We will be celebrating our 20th on Monday. Ooh la la! Enjoy your fabulous room!
ReplyDeleteOh this is so beatiful, I love the mismatch of styles and furniture! My kind of home decorating!
ReplyDeleteI haven´t seen your question at my blog norrfriddesign.blogspot.com until now, and yes, I can send my pillows to the US also. But I haven´t got any sheepskin at the moment, not until fall this year!
That desk is to die for! Just gorgeous...it all looks great...

Hi Anne Marie!
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing!! I love everything...that little bench at the end of the bed is wonderful!! Congratulations on 16 years together!! I bet Jason loved the room:).It is truly lovely with the charming desk and antique linens.I love how you can pull together so many different pieces and make it look like something out of a magazine!!
Have a great day...stay cool:).

Your bedroom is beautiful..
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Anniversary..
Awesome room! Love the florals and the blue French desk.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary, Anne-Marie! I've gotta tell you ~ I adore the boho way you style your rooms. The way you mix colors and textures is so fun, quirky, and down right beautiful! :)

Once again, it's so refreshing to see a mix of painted and stained finishes in one room. You have the Midas touch when it comes to mixing it all up and having it turn out fabulous!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! our 16year coming up, too! Lovely pieces and color choices. you have a gift!
ReplyDeleteWhat a makeover!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite thing is that wonderful blue French desk, where did you find it? I LOVE LOVE it!
And I love all the paintings and crosses on it!
Just a question: wouldn't you think of painting (or sanding it if there is a beautiful wood essence under that coffee dye) the bed and hanging some paintings on the wall over it? Just to say...
Hugs,
Fra
Love, love, love what you have done, because it was a gift of love to yourself and your husband.Can't separate the two, because when God put the two of you together He created a oneness that your love and His Love continues to nourish, not just spiritually, but in the ordinary of life. Shelia
ReplyDeleteoh anne marie....it looks beautiful. i love the settee, the desk, everything. i am sure jason loved it!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous! I love the variety of fabrics and that bench is just beautiful... it matches the desk perfectly. I do love how you mix painted pieces with wood. I think it fits so well with the rest of your beautiful home.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ideas! But I would like to share my idea with you. I would suggest you embroidery work in spite of painting, because it is not long lasting. You can try my idea.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! Love the blue desk and accents. That bench is beautiful. When i was little my furniture in my room was the blue color of your desk, and I am fairly vintaged. Love all your things on your dresser. All it needs is an antique elegant perfume bottle. You will come up with a great back drop to your bed. You always have a knack with making things just gorgeous. Just an idea. How about a collage of pictures of those beautiful kids and your farm in antique frames. Maybe some in frames painted blue?
