Morning Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you really enjoying Spring.
We are here, we were amazed at how much
Spring had exploded at our house while we
were away, so nice to see all that lush green
out there.......our grass isn't all green yet
but we have been having rain the last few
days and hubby put fertilizer down this
past weekend, so it is greening up fast
now too. Who can't love Spring!!
Just such a beautiful time of year, and we
are so enjoying the weather still, and hope
it continues to stay in the 70's to low 80's
for quite awhile yet!
Thought I would share my Daughters
guest bedroom, where we sleep while
we are there, cause I just think it is
just so cute. They did a great job of
transforming it without spending a
ton of money and using what she
already had........
Remember for better viewing pleasure
just click on one pic and it will enlarge
them all.
Love the colors in her new Ikat patterned
coverlet, so beachy and bright. The map
over the bed was a clever gift from her
hubbies late Aunt so they can mark any
places that they have visited. They have
places marked but you can't see it, didn't
think to take a close up....lol
Lovely shells from one of her husbands
cousins, the blue fish bottle was from us.....
and the rest was using what she already had.
Isn't the fish pillow the cutest!
That and the blue patterned one are new.
She already had the green ones.
and much to my surprise the other side
of her quilt has more lil fishies......So
that will be a fun change down the road.
Loved the lil crabs pictures.....and they added
white boho style curtains to soften
the room a bit.
They affixed the wooden crabs to painting
canvas to make them stand out more and
have a 3 dimensional look.....which turned
out great.
They really make a statement in the room.
The next wall has their closet with the
Beach House sign over the door. Really
like that their closet doors completely
open out, a very nice feature. As ours
slide, so you can only see one side at
a time.
on the other side of the closet doors
she just hung some hats that matched
her colors, which I thought was a
clever idea, and went perfectly with
their beachy theme.
This is the wall that the entry door is on,
the door is just to the left, and they added
this neat clock (which was hubbies before
they married, and the Dolphin fish or
some call them Mahi Mahi fish was made
by her hubbies Mom from a dried palm
frond. Isn't it cute....she did a great job
on it.....as it really looks like a dolphin
fish, and I know cause I caught a 14 pd.
one when I was a kid, an it scared me
too death as it was almost as big as me.
Then they added this plaque that has
hooks and a basket on it, and you can't
see it very well, but there is a liscense
plate in the basket and a lil bag with
something beachy on it, can't remember
what now....lol Also I think we must
have knocked that plaque a lil off bal-
ance, but didn't notice it until looking
at the pic now....also think the vase
was further out from the chest as well.
(Took this one pic right before we left
and was kinda hurrying, so didn't check
it out very well lol).
Thought it was a cute addition to add
the floppy hat on top of the vase and
the fishing pole and bamboo in the
corner. All of these items she already
had too, along with the very chippy
chest of drawers.
So we thought it was a very fun room,
bright and cheery and definitely beachy
