My Favorite Room

Let's look at the room I live in. That would be my sun room. This room was added on to our house after we turned what use to be a small drinking hole for cows into our pond. We could not look at the pond from the house. We had to go outside to look at it. So I was glad we added this room where we can enjoy it all year.

I guess I should add that my husband and I did this whole room except for the framing. He did the wiring, connected the vents for heat and air, hung the windows and doors, put in  the bead board, did all the trim and I helped lay the tile floor and I did all the painting and of course decorating.

 This is looking in from the breakfast room. I love my sun room.

 I truly love my Pottery Barn slipcovered sofa. This was a bit of a splurge, but so worth it. It is very comfortable to sit or lie down on. If it gets to looking dirty I can just take off the slipcovers and throw them in the washer and dryer.

 This is the room where I watch t.v. at night while Mr. Savvy watches the t.v. in the living room. We don't like the same shows so it is better to watch separately. He likes the SciFi channel and of course some car shows and I like sitcoms and reality shows.

 This is a shabby birdhouse I purchased at a little antique shop.

I love this little green bird.

 

This lovely little table was given to me by my sister. My mom gave her a coffee table she no longer wanted and my sister had always loved it  and wanted it so she got Mom's and I got hers. It works perfectly in here.

 Love the shape of this table. Accessorized with a lamp from HomeGoods, stack of design books, a glass cloche, and a bunny looking on with his carrot.

These two chairs use to grace my grandmother's living room, but were covered in a beautiful chintz. They were quite worn when I got them and I had them upholstered in this fabric many years ago. Now I would love to have white slipcovers made for them, but they work fine for now in my cottage style room. These chairs are very old and very well made. They are so heavy because they are made of solid wood construction. Chairs aren't  made like that much anymore.

 Bamboo table bought really cheap at a home decor store. Accessorized with a reading lamp, apothecary jar from Southern Living at Home, design books, shabby bunny, topiary from HomeGoods, and a little Staffordshire  dog. The louvered shutters were found at a local salvage yard and I painted and distressed them.

Old looking lemonade clock bought from HudsonGoods.com

  Old sign bought at a local flea market.

 Love birds.

Rooster lamp.

 

Plates line the wall.

Lots of decorating magazines to look at.

Shabby sign of cabins at Lake Rabun found at a flea market. Mr. Savvy's family is from Lake Rabun so I had to purchase this to hang in here. 

This is looking out at the pond.

Paula Deen's brand new book just released yesterday.

Thanks for letting me show you my favorite room. The room where I hang out and lie on the sofa, look at my magazines and books and look at the television.

This is how it looks at night.
