Two Mistreatments and the Fringe is On

So, I am ready to re-reveal Little Sister's bed. 

I am finally happy with the way it looks.

It took two Mistreatment's, an extra layer on the bed skirt and putting some fringe on to give it more life.

I love the the texture that layers of pillows add to a bed,

and vintage linens add such history to a room.

My parents brought Little Sister this pillowcase from a trip they took to Budapest, Hungary.  Just about every item in this room has a story.

Aren't these lovely, I found them 10 years ago at an antique shop on a vacation in North Georgia.  They are tablecloths and napkins, what a total score to find two sets one in blue and one in pink. I used both sets when my girls shared a room, the tablecloths made great throws at the ends of the beds and I made the napkins into reversible pillows.

I love these pillows and I am so glad they are still being used.

So this is the before, you can see the tablecloth was still being used as a throw.  I have retired the tablecloths from bedroom duty for now, but I am sure I will find a new job for them soon.

Here is the after, more color and texture make such a difference.

I hope to paint some furniture next week and finally be finished in this room.  Thanks for all of your kind words and encouragement throughout this process.
