Last year, since you lot were all too so variety to ask, I promised many of my Facebook too Eye for Design friends too followers that I would demo some pictures of my ain home. You stimulate got seen weblog posts on my living room, dining room, hall too kitchen. That leaves the identify unit of measurement room too the main sleeping room suite which includes my office. The 2 bedrooms upstairs became my husband's human being cave since our boy moved out. Although he has it truly overnice it won't live on the tour. I stimulate got non taken the fourth dimension to accept trouble solid pictures for almost a year, too so inwards guild to fulfill my hope I idea I would larn ahead too characteristic the sleeping room get-go too sometime earlier the terminate of the twelvemonth I'll larn roughly to the identify unit of measurement room.
I idea it would live easier to include the bath too my utilization since they are truly share of the sleeping room suite. The sleeping room is eclectic sometime Blue Planet inwards mode somewhere inwards betwixt classic too province manor. There are French influences equally good equally Neo-classical, too English. I stimulate got plans too projects ahead that volition controversy things to a greater extent than to the French side. Will update equally I complete projects, but for now, this is it. I hope you lot enjoy.
Looking into the sleeping room from the door leading outside. This room is painted inwards a soft blush musical note that is difficult to photograph too changes color depending on the fourth dimension of day. The truest color volition live what you lot encounter on the lower parts of the walls where the golden incandescent lighting doesn't interfere. I painted this sometime desk virtually xv years ago. The 4 poster was handmade past times a human being inwards Lexington too I stimulate got had it through my 80's primitive colonial stage, through English linguistic communication too right away into to a greater extent than Old World. My computer program is to plough it into a lit à la polonaise mode bed too am looking for a coronet. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 projection for when my dorsum gets better!!
I am too so fortunate to stimulate got this swell window topographic point inwards the bedroom. It's 1 of the things that sold me on this sometime house. That too the 12 pes ceilings. The sometime wool tapestry came from an auction inwards northern Kentucky too is mitt appliqued. It is inwards soft muted colors on a nighttime dark-green background that merely exercise non demo upward good inwards the photographic telly camera light. I am planning to modify the window handling presently to something that enhances the hanging.......so many projects, equally good footling time.
I dearest antique textiles, specially those that are mitt made. I endeavor too purchase whatever that I detect at prices that don't suspension the bank. There are too so many places you lot tin utilization them to give your dwelling an sometime Blue Planet feel.
Here is a closer moving prototype too you lot tin encounter the colors a chip better.
You tin encounter the applique function too mitt stitches ameliorate here.
Just a footling vignette inwards the infinite inwards betwixt rooms. I collect sometime identify unit of measurement crests.......any advert volition do!
Looking through the bed into my office. This room has 5 doors, a fireplace, too a window box which makes it difficult to come upward up amongst wall infinite for another pieces I want........like an armoire.
You larn through this steal door into my office.
This expanse is a combination of French too Neo-classical. I dearest reliefs, Greek fundamental patterns, too other classical elements too intend they function good amongst French furniture.
My desk is a large trestle mode amongst carved legs too feet that you lot can't truly encounter inwards these pictures. I constitute an sometime picket makers cabinet that sits on overstep of it. The French telephone was a birthday introduce from Tim. The French girandoles were constitute inwards a vintage machine parts junk yard. They were apart too inwards a box.....for $50.00. There is a even similar that behind everything I have. God leads me to some incredible finds!!!
I want you lot could encounter the picket cabinet better.....all these footling drawers too slots. The slice at correct was made past times my swell granddad too I stimulate got considered prototype it but exactly don't stimulate got the heart. Above the desk is an antique needlepoint moving prototype of a immature French falconer. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 treasured gift from a friend inwards French Republic is displayed inwards the cloche.
This room is prettier if you lot are truly standing inwards it. It's non that large too so it is difficult to photograph to larn total views. The panels were sometime Chinoiserie panels that I painted too stenciled amongst articulation chemical compound for a raised Venetian plaster look. This window is 1 I continue shuttered too so I also covered it amongst a tapestry too framed antique French needlepoint topographic point cover........pretty muted pastel colors that over again exactly don't demo upward well.
The footling antique bench is where you lot volition commonly detect a sleeping cat. Sophie, Chanel, too Buddy similar to relax hither spell I am Facebooking or working on a blog. The sometime pillows are petitpoint too are of French chateaux. I am in all likelihood going to pigment the slant overstep desk cream equally a wintertime project.
The closer the photographic telly camera the to a greater extent than color you lot tin see. There is alot to a greater extent than blueish but exactly doesn't demo upward good no affair what I do.
I stimulate got several crystal chandeliers throughout the trouble solid too wanted something dissimilar but similar to larn inwards my office. I looked for over a twelvemonth for 1 of these antique Italian vine chandeliers. The crystals tally into metallic buds too so it looks similar they are blooming. Found it finally too the cost was RIGHT. Tim did stimulate got to rewire the sockets equally they were Italian too did non tally our bulbs.
This twelvemonth I purchased this large sometime unframed crude on sail that truly impacts the room. Hard to tell hither that she is sixty inches tall. My vision was to position an antique French daybed hither underneath it. However, my dorsum dictates that it does non desire to larn upward too downwards basement stairs to launder clothes. So the washer too dryer right away sit down hither instead. Dream has been position on agree until nosotros tin convert a covered porch to a mudroom. People tell to expect on the brilliant side though an comprehend what a pretty laundry room I have.
View from utilization into sleeping room that shows the French screens on either side of the bed. It truly has 4 panels but I stimulate got them separate too folded for now.
I stimulate got tried to modify the photographic telly camera setting too so the colors are a chip truer fifty-fifty though now the dark-green is weird. The screens are truly covered inwards blues, greens, too deep reds on a cream background. Also blues inwards the needlepoint pillows.
Looking through door leading to the hall.
Another of the MANY doors. This 1 leads to the bathroom.
I stimulate got to tell the even of the mantle. There is an sometime lady inwards town that nosotros assist from fourth dimension to fourth dimension when she comes past times needing nutrient or another assistance. She has a roof over her caput but no electricity, H2O etc. too won't larn anywhere else. She is a hoarder equally well.......like on TV. One twenty-four hours this huge human being shows upward inwards a truck, knocks on the door too says "Deborah wants you lot to stimulate got this". I didn't debate amongst him. Where it came from I don't know. Anyway it went perfect inwards my bath too I am glad to stimulate got it.
I volition eventually exercise something dissimilar underneath it. Without the photographic telly camera flash you lot don't encounter the stripes too so it does expect better. Just French script showing.
The crystal chandelier too sconces launder out the green, deep reds, too blues inwards the pictures too the acanthus leafage boarder nether the leopard print. However without them on it is equally good dark.
I turned off the sconces but it yet didn't help. There is a pretty footling French demilune tabular array amongst painted flowers on it that exactly doesn't demo up.
I dearest lidded garden urns! The cherry you lot encounter inwards the stair good runs through all these rooms but for some argue it shows upward good hither but nowhere else.
Looking downwards the hall.
Usually Chanel or Sophie are the ones interested inwards getting their pictures taken but today Buddy wanted inwards on the act. He turned upward at the terminate to tell good-by.
