| hi friends! just poppin in to give you a little tour of my bedroom.... decluttered, simplified and freshened up for the summer.... |
 |
| mr. dan went on a fishing trip recently, and i developed a serious crush. his name is benjamin moore. love. this. paint! this perfect soft blue/grey is called "silver cloud"....love it! and it went on like butter....in one coat. |
 |
| i have had these two old doors hanging out in my living room like forever....and i brought them in here, plopped them on either side of the bed..... and loved the simple/zen look so much, that i scrapped the whole idea of using two old garden gates that i purchased recently as a headboard (sorry, forgot to include a photo of the gates....which weigh a couple of tons.....and probably would have fallen off the wall and killed someone.....which would not be a bad way to go....actually). my friend kim leggett from "city farmhouse", who owns one of my very favorite stores in franklin.... came up with the brilliant idea of hanging some lights from the doors (and of course i had the perfect lights in my prop room...who doesn't?) and she suggested i hang some of my handmade wirds ( words+wire=wirds ) above the bed. |
 |
| "shhh..." inspired by the little sign that i "lifted" (ahem) from a stay at the ritz carleton. |
 |
| thanks kim! for the great ideas!! |
 |
| white chenille bedspread from a tag sale was a bargain for $5. |
 |
| love me some ball fringe. |
 |
| a mix match of bedding... |
 |
| annabelle hydrangea cut from my backyard on a bedside table... |
 |
| "hi there!" |
 |
| funky accessories just for fun... |
 |
| part of an old yo yo quilt as dresser scarf... |
 |
| these lights, at night are so perfect! |
 |
| lavender is soothing.... darling daughter gave me the awesome vase. |
 |
| and simple white/breezy sheers bought at world market soften the big windows. i absotootly love my bedroom now! hope you enjoyed this little tour today and that you are having a good summer!! (officially starts tomorrow!) love, erin p.s. i have installed fancy schmancy logos on my side bar... but, i can not for the life of me figure out how to make them smaller? ? and gave up trying for now...the computer can be such a time suck! anyhoo.... you can click on them to instantly take you to my links.... won't you please "follow" me on Face book and Instagram?? p.p.s i have been the proud owner of my very first smart phone for about a month now.... and i am totally addicted to Instagram!!! sooooo fun. |
It really is Summer calm in your bedroom. I love how you did your lights. We always have to turn our lights against the wall as you have them here, because they are just too blinding directly.
ReplyDeleteI have had an iphone for a year and will not join IG...I do not want to be addicted and EVERYONE says they are! I may have to for my shop but I am holding off as long as I can. I didn't like FB and deactivated two yrs ago. Seems we are losing many bloggers to both. :(
Pretty all around wonderful! Love the way the bed is dressed!! and of course Shhhh...
ReplyDeletePretty! Has a cool/fresh look - like the color.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
Oh, I'm loving your cool blue bedroom, Erin! I have chenille bedspreads on all of our beds. You just can't beat that vintage look, especially if it's edged in pom-pom trim like yours. The doors and wirds above your bed are uniquely you. I just bought white sheers for our bedroom, and after seeing yours, I can't wait to hang them....after I paint the windows, that is. And your yo-yo dresser scarf and floral lampshade are sweet!

ReplyDeleteErin - it all looks so calm, serene, and cozy. I love painting with BM paint, too. I always compared it to painting with pudding. :) The color you chose is so soft and pretty. How did hubs like it? :)
ReplyDeleteHave a peace filled and restful weekend.

Dear Erin,
ReplyDeleteOh I love your bedroom.. The cool blue is dreamy, and I really like your bedspread!
Enjoy your weekend.
p.s. You look lovely!
Absolutely gorgeous Erin. I love every view of this beautiful room.
ReplyDeleteHugs from here...
Loving the ZEN feeling of your bedroom!

I am lovin your bedroom's summer look, Erin. I love white bedding and it is all I use, except for some blue pillow shams I occasionally use. The BM paint color you used is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, Erin ~
ReplyDeleteI stopped by the other day to read this post, but couldn't leave a comment (the internet service can be more than a bit wonky from the top of a mountain).
LOVEly bedroom, like floating on a cloud... and the lighting is inspired!
I agree. Modifying the look of a blog is a complete time suck. If you are using a Minima template like me, the Date Title and Sidebar Titles are one and the same, so when you change the date title the sidebar titles change. Best guess is that you'd have to edit the HTML by adding a chunk of code to allow you to change the sidebar title size. Ugh-ly.
Anyhoo, thanks for popping by to say 'Hi'. I hope you have a happy one today!

It's so lovely, Erin!!! I bet Dan loves it. I think there is no Zen in me. I would be too tempted to add more. What a restful place, though. It is just beautiful. I've always loved your little wirds. ;-) And that chenille bedspread!!!
ReplyDeleteThat paint color has been floating around in my head but didn't know a name for what I was envisioning for our bedroom. So thank you dear heart! I desperately need the declutter fairies to come ...

Chocolate and coffee is a great combination! try serving a square along with a cup. A bite of chocolate followed by a melt-in-your mouth sip of java is an incredible treat! The chocolate can also be enjoyed by dipping it, or even dropping a piece directly into the coffee.
