Guest room

 

Accessories complete a room and  I chose things carefully to create a welcoming space in the new guest room.  Some of these accessories were items I already had.

A bird theme emerged starting with my son’s chalk drawing of a finch that I’ve always liked.   A large basket placed beside the bed holds extra blankets for cool nights.

The vignette on the armoire includes an antique blue duck covered dish, a gift from my sister, paired with a bird cage acquired at an auction and then repainted.  I added a blue bird (it really tweets), a small candle and a little greenery in off-white pottery.  All of these items came from other rooms or retrived from storage boxes.

The recently refinished antique rocker found a home in this guest room.  A  new white table lamp placed on the end table with a few books creates a cozy place to read and relax.  Another bird found its way to this corner in a small pillow placed in the rocker.  A mirror and breezy white curtains complete this area.

The last accessories are for the desk with my recently completed backsplash desk protector.  A bird quote in an inexpensive frame, a small arrangement created by my daughter, another lamp, bird wall art and the desk area is finished.

Desk

I’m still looking for an interesting waste basket and a small stool for the desk.  I’d love your suggestions for unique options – any ideas?
