Things are falling into place

Going thru my tear sheets I realized I keep coming back to the same things over and over

I really love the soft, quiet, comfortable glow of these rooms

  Not too loud, not too quiet, not too modern, not too traditional.

  At the end of the day I really just want a warm cocoon to unwind in, dream, read a book...

These sheer shades are so dreamy

Love the more contemporary art with the traditional, classic lines of the dresser and headboard

 

It takes a bit of work to achieve this effortless, classic softness when working within a bargain basement budget

 

 This room has that same glow, but in lovely red ticking.  No modern touches here just wholesome goodness.

  This room feels like cookies, old books, and a cup of tea to me.

same glow in a dining room

I think I'll make a rustic console as a long bedside table

I may have to add a touch of fur for afternoon naps

At any rate I am inching the ball forward ever so slightly,

 every day...

I wish I could wave a magic wand and have everything appear as easy as pinning to my pinterest

 or finding on Houzz

 where I found my tv inspiration

This weekend, magic wand in hand

I mounted and framed the tv 

and cut the fabric for two more of my drapery panels

I have a big old book of audubon prints to surround the tv

 A large grouping might be nice

 Can't wait to start the headboard!
