Before it is time to start pulling out the Christmas decorations I thought I would show you how I have changed the other guestroom. It has been like this ever since I went into nesting mode in September. There are lots of changes from bedding to lamps and even vignettes to make it feel warmer and cozier for the colder seasons. I really need to quit visiting the Pottery Barn outlet because they have such good deals on bedding and it all wants to hop in my cart. I just love red and cannot leave it out of my home. You can see how the room did look here for spring and summer.
I was looking at frenchlarkspur.com to see what vintage goodies she had listed and saw this grain sack with my son's and granddaughter's initials on and had to have it.
This is the
nightstand that I made over with Miss Mustard Seed milk paint in Ironstone.
I put together this fall arrangement in my vintage enamelware pot. In a few weeks it will be time to add some Christmas greenery. Hard to believe.
I layered the red striped bed skirt over the white one since the striped one is not long enough.
Lucked up and found this brass lamp at Restoration Hardware Outlet. Regular price on RH is $229. I got it for $109. Score! Now I keep checking back for another one.
This little vintage clock was purchased in Raleigh, NC when I went to the Southern Bloggers Conference.
Mr. Savvy replaced the very dated ceiling fan with this school light that I bought with credit on Joss & Main.
Until next time.
It looks just perfect for Fall. I like how you made the bed skirt longer. Great idea. The room is picture perfect!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful room, Kim, that any guest would be fortunate to stay in! I always love how you coordinate bedding and you have to know that I love your schoolhouse light. :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks so pretty Kim. I love the bedding and the pharmacy light looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteKim, that room is amazing. I noticed that you don't have the shams that match the duvet. I will remember that! Sometimes when you find things on sale they don't have all of the pieces. Love the way you coordinated but didn't match it all.
ReplyDeleteAnd by the way, I'd love to have the outlet instead of the real store to shop from!
I love the red too...I think it is one of those colors like black that you just have to use. I especially love the duvet fabric. I bought fabric very similar to that that I am using in both bathrooms. Hard to believe that Christmas will be soon here, but I'm really excited about doing something different this year. Thanks for stopping by

Very pretty, Kim. I like the layered bedskirt look and it's a good solution for a short one. I saw a duvet cover I liked in the new PB catalog and I'm thinking of heading to the outlet to see if they have it there.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that grain sack pillow on the bed! That is gorgeous. Love your new lamp from RH too. Does it feel wierd to buy brass again? I do like that kind of brass though. It's not cheap looking.
ReplyDeleteI am always drawn to red for comfort, and this room is wonderful...I love the little table on the other side of the bed too..so much personality! Great job!
ReplyDeleteLovely bedroom, I love all of the items you chose to complete this look!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Kim!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about doing this same thing in the master...something a tad different for winter. Will see what happens.:-)
so pretty and cozy. I really need to start working on my guest rooms so they are more welcoming....they've been last on my list to get to. LOVE the RH lamp.
ReplyDeleteAll of my favorite colors :) That is such a pretty duvet cover. I have been stocking up on red ticking for the holidays too. Great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful cozy, warm guest room! Your guests will surely feel pampered staying there. Love your grain sack pillow cover!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Kim!! Love the new PB duvet and that fabulous grain sack pillow! I love it all!
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine what a joy it would be to sink into that bed after a day of travel. The room is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour bedroom is so cozy! I want to come and stay! We recently did bold stripes in the guest bedroom- now we just need to accessorize!

Love this bedroom, and the grainsack pillow!!! Very cheerful and warm for the winter months, I too love red and have it almost everywhere!!!
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful. I love the red too, so perfect for this room. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteThat room is beautiful, Kim. I love the fabric combinations and the vintage fabric on the pillows.
ReplyDeleteLovely guest room! Can I make a reservation to come for a few days?? I love the idea of layering the bedskirt.
ReplyDeleteMary Alice
Looks great Kim! It looks warm and cozy...just in time for winter.
ReplyDeleteKim,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love that little bird! I could never lie near a Pottery Barn outlet, I would be broke! I do not know how you stay away!
Take care, Elizabeth
My mom always doubles her bed skirts, I like that layered look. I love that little bird. You always have the cutest critters. I still love the squirrel you showed off a few weeks ago! The new lamp has a really pretty patina. Luck find it's mate!
ReplyDeleteLove the side table with the lamp from RH. I would love to live by a Pottery Barn outlet...but husband may not to be happy:)
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Layering a short bed skirt over a longer one is such a great idea. I would have never thought of it.
ReplyDeleteIts a beautiful room Kim, your home is magazine gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteKim what a beautiful guest room! LOVE that color on the walls looks perfect with that beautiful bedding!Cool light on the ceiling too!

Kim, I love your style! Such great thought and lots of detail... especially in the bedding! The layered bedskirts look perfect! I hope you keep that room open... February up here is very dismal... I might need a southern vacation!
ReplyDeletelove love love that pillow, nightstand and clock! so cute!!
ReplyDeleteI really like the school light fixture and the brass lamp. Red is one of my favorite colors too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors! I noticed a comment asking about buying brass again - I've been noticing it show up everywhere and have been wondering about it being "in" again. Your lamp is such a warm version of brass, I love it! I personally am getting a bit tired of seeing white, gray, nickel, etc. Thinking of warming up things around here with warmer metals. Maybe the new brass things will fill the bill. (I still have ugly old shiny brass 80's stuff to get rid of, however!)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, looks magazine perfect!
ReplyDeleteThis is a pretty room, Kim. I like how you doubled up on the bed skirts--they look flirty and cute together, and a perfect complement to your lovely bedspread as well.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, Kim. Your beds always looks cushy and cozy. I bet guests love crawling into them at night.
ReplyDeleteHi Kimmie! Oh, your guest bedroom is gorgeous! I love the red too.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Kim, your guest room looks great! I love touches of red in a room. The bedding is beautiful; and the grain sack worked wonderfully. What a lovely retreat for your guests!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful room!!...I have so many "favorites" in that room...from the awesome pillow to the great deal of a lamp..and then there is the dust ruffle....I so love how you layered it!!...Genious!...I love red too...I think we need to buy stock in Pottery Barn!!!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful room Kim!
ReplyDeleteKim, this room looks beautiful, comfortable and cozy. Your guests won't want to leave :D
ReplyDeleteKim- It looks great! I love the little gold bird- a nice accent for some of the more "aged" things in the room- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful! Love the new red PB duvet and the grain sack pillow :o) What lucky guests you have!

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty room Kim. I love your layered bed skirt and all your pops of red...so pretty and my all time favorite color! Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteCindy
LOVE the brass lamp. Our Restoration Hardware outlet is a couple hours away -- darn it. The school house lamp is so pretty. I don't like those ceiling fans with the dated country bulbs...like in my daughter's apartment...that needs to go. I appreciate people wanting the fan...but ugh!
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty room. I love the bed skirt and that beautiful grain sack is a real show stopper.
hugs
Sissie
Absolutely gorgeous for fall. I love the color combination.
ReplyDeleteLove the layered bedskirt. I just replaced a striped skirt that was too short with a solid white one. May have to try the layered look. BTW I love your blog and read it almost daily.
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely room you've created!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a room you KNOW your children will LOVE to come home to!! beautiful, Kim. Do you like the Mustard Seed paint more or less than the Annie Sloan??? Looks great. blessings ~ tanna
ReplyDeleteIt looks soooo cozy. I just booked my flight and will be there today to snuggle down :)
ReplyDeleteHugs,

It's just lovely, Kim. Very cozy, just like you wanted. Love the layered bedskirts.
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
ReplyDeleteThis is a most magnificent room. I LOVE it! I can't take my eyes off of it! Everything is perfect, the layers, the colours, the textures, the accessories. Magazine-worthy magnificent!
Have a great weekend!

Another gorgeous layered room from Kim!!! You got the gift girl!
ReplyDeleteEvidently I need to but PB stock! Bloggers all over are keeping them in business!!!! Love the new bedding and how you layered the bedskirt! I will keep that in mind. The new lampis beautiful, hope you get the mate. XO, Pinky
ReplyDeleteVery pretty room - love the layered bedskirt - I'm still working on rooms since our move - a little inspiration in this room. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHugs -

Your new pillow is so gorgeous!! Love all the vintage touches and the warm red! Such a cozy, beautiful room!
ReplyDeleteI am so in love with your vintage grain sack body pillow {had to pin it!} and the little alarm clock. The room is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I would love to visit!
ReplyDeleteHave a Beautiful weekend,
Sherry
What a wonderful bedroom you created Kim. Love the grain stack with the initials in red, well, love the entire room. Glad you shared.
ReplyDeleteJoy
This is a beautiful room. I love the way you've blended vintage with the new. The red-striped bedskirt with the floral duvet cover, the grain sacks with the red initials, and the fall floral arrangement with the gold bird (who has attitude) look as though they are in a Pottery Barn showroom. The yellow lamp with the touches of red also fits with the room so well. Are you sure you want another brass lamp in its place? Oh, yes, the little vintage creamy yellow clock is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm becoming a new follower. Can't wait to see what you do for Christmas!
Judith
You have created such an beautiful inviting room. That grain sack pillow is superb!
ReplyDeleterita
