Bedroom

Over the last three months I have painted my bedroom, ordered a new bedspread ( a real bedspread that reaches the floor and doesn’t need a bed skirt) found a quilt to fold at the bottom and matching pillow shams.  I love the paint color – when Bradley was scraping the window trim he ran across the color of blue I was looking for.  So I took the chip to my favorite paint store – Cowan Ace Hardware  (their grandfather built our house in 1937 – Conyers old-timers call our house the Cowan house).  Eli Cowan is a master at paint – he was able to color match it perfectly, so now my room has a truly vintage look just because of the paint!  I really like it!  It’s soothing and helps me calm down at night.  Here are a couple of pictures.  I still need to put stuff on the walls.  That will come later.  Oh – and it really needs some throw pillows.  The photos made that very obvious to me!  And, it would be really nice to have a bedroom set.  That’s working its way up on my priorities!

  1. Love the room--reminds me of a quaint B&B--very nice! What's the web site for the bedspread--we'd like to get one like yours and ditch the bed skirts.
