It's lovely. I love the beadboard wall and the white frames.. and what really got me was the photo of the two cats and the dog on the sofa back looking out the window. I would have to turn my sofa around to the sliding glass door to the back deck and be able to take an almost identical photo! I have a long haired black and white kitty..same pattern as yours but with a bit more white, a black and white short haired kitty just like yours and a schnauzer in 'winter fur' just like your pup.. same color.. Sugar baby aka Angel the long hair, Little Man, the short hair and Freeway the Schnauzer! 🙂

Wow! It turned out great Gail! Now could you head over here and do my bedroom? LOL It is the most neglected room in the house. How sad is that! I also have "projects" stacked in my bedroom. Oh, the ugliness of it all!

What a nice, crisp change! Lovely colors and added touches. Just not sure I could watch TV that close to me! Looks like there are lots of good memories in there with you.

Oh Don't you just love it! It is beautiful! What hard work, but looking at it finished that all fades!

I love it! Good job.

It is very, very pretty. Just two questions:
1) where is the bride doll? She'd fit in beautifully.
2) Do you have to lay on your side to watch television?
P.S. Love the second frame arrangement...it definitely finishes it all.

Gail, it looks great! I think the new location of the bed feels really cozy. I think a bed should always feel cozy. Oh, and that pic of Jamie and yourself, and the sculpture, love that!!

It's a very relaxing color, great place for you to go after a long day of repurposing! I love the window treatments they are simple and add some warm color.
Candace@craftysisters-nc
Great job Gail! Everything looks so soft and feminine and I love all the added sentimental touches to the room. I just might borrow your idea for the headboard for my son's room. By the way, I'm glad you found the two-pack of drop cloths, it's a sweet deal! 🙂
the cape on the corner
love the bed in that spot (it's like mine) and the color combo. it looks amazingly different...that trim makes a huge difference. i bet it is much more relaxing for you in there now, too!

Love your new and gorgeous room! It's beautiful. I love the frames as art on the wall. Simple yet stunning.

The room is beautiful and looks so relaxing. I love your new bed cover. It looks perfect with the wall color and the headboard. You're right, it does look feminine and that is the perfect look for that room.
