vintage style, cottage living, home cooking
With one of my old sweaters, a drop cloth and some chunky trims and laces, I now have a pretty tote to carry to the farmers market, out to the pool, and trips to the beach.
Are you getting ready for Holiday guests?? Are you tired of the same way you make your bed everyday? Do you want to spruce your guest room up?? I have a few simple and no cost ideas to do just that!!
But before I share these ideas with you, I am Guest Hosting for Grace over at: Kitchen Table Art today!!!
I hope you will visit Grace and tell her I sent you!!
Okay, let’s get show on the road!!
You have extra throw pillows, tight? Extra blankets?? That’s all you need to make your guests fill warm and welcome!!
This is my bed most days. Inviting, but I like to try other ideas, too!
Same look, but with an added homemade afghan laid across the foot of the bed. Just a little added warmth.
Now I covered the pillows with the afghan, adding just a touch of color with one pillow.
These are pillows from our TV room. I added a throw to the foot of the bed for texture.
I LOVE color! I brought these pillows in from our living room. The colors flow perfectly with the bedroom. More texture-more color.
During the warmer months I pull down the comforter and fold it in thirds at the foot of the bed.
To accomplish a fun look, leave your bedding a little messy. It looks like someone actually lives here. I added the TV room pillows, making them a little messy, too.
It’s nice just nice to remove the comforter altogether adding a few pillows. Yes, I made the coral pillow.
Take your shams off, and add a couple of throw pillows. Then add the color at the end of your bed with a colorful hand made afghan. Adding another throw on top.
