The farmhouse style guestroom has a new look for the fall season with a few updates You can see the way it looked before here. I loved the white bedding, but there is something about adding more texture and color that makes the room feel cozier for the cooler days ahead. This room is the one I love to change up just to create a new feeling and have fun with. I'm always experimenting.
Meet Mango. Yep, that is the name he was given on the Ballard Designs site and I think it's perfect.
When I saw Mango I knew I had to have him. I actually thought he would go in the breakfast room, but the size I chose is wrong for that wall. I could have ordered a larger size, but the price really jumped. So I had to find him a new spot and when I hung him here the angels sang.
These shams with the navy ticking and cute ruffles are turned backwards so the buttons can show. They are much more interesting this way instead of the plain front.
The colorful pillow in front was in a basket at Pottery Barn all by itself and I had never seen this one before.
I love how the colors in the pillow go perfectly with this quilt that I already had.
This is the reverse side of the quilt. I'll have to switch to this side some time. The navy blue quilt is from Pottery Barn and I purchased it when it was on sale plus they offered free shipping. I also had some discount rewards coupons to use so I spent very little on it.
Little ruffles along the bed skirt.
With just a few changes and the room is cozy and ready for the cooler season.
I hope this has given you some ideas to change up and cozy up those bedrooms.
Happy Columbus Day and have an awesome week!

ReplyDeleteI love how this room is looking now, so pretty.
ReplyDeleteLOVE it, perfect mix and match of vintage quilt with patterned pillows and textures! that little ruffle on the bedskirt is adorable.
ReplyDeleteYes...so beautiful and cozy!!...Love the colorful quilt against the navy quilt....Great name for a cow!...and great touch with the cotton garland...A gorgeous guest room dressed for Fall!
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast of the light against the dark color! I have a quilt similar to that and my dogs keep getting their toe nails hung up in the threads and it pulls them up.

You made it perfect for the cooler days ahead! I love Mango! I really love your ticking stripe pillow shams! Where did you get them? I have a little primitive chair like yours that I love! Your room always sings beautifully with your touch! Singing choirs of angels!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I need design help. My home is so bad. Don't even want to be here. How sad is that?
ReplyDeleteCarol, I'm sorry you don't feel good about your home and I wish mine didn't make you feel that way about yours.
DeleteYou are full of inspiration! That cotton makes the bed look completely different.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you have the energy to do so much. I kind of find something and then just stick with it. Although I got busy with a can of "old gold" spray paint and a thing my husband wanted to throw away, and when he came home he was extremely impressed. Not sure whether I will share that, or just keep people guessing.
I'm thinking about Carol Jane's comment and wondering what it is that is off for her. I would love to help her feel better about her place or to make tweaks that would make it a happier place for her.
Thanks and I don't know Carol Jane's email address. Maybe she will come back and read your comment and y'all can get in touch.
DeleteI don't know how you manage to change an entire room without buying everything new! Amazing, and love and want to shop everything in this new room!
ReplyDeleteVel, there was a few new things for this look. The navy quilt, bed skirt, ticking shams, lamps, cow art, and pillow. :)
DeleteOh, Mango is just adorable! And I love all those little details you always bring to your rooms... Whether is a new lamp, a chair or a gorgeous pillow, it's always so pretty and interesting.
ReplyDeleteKim, Too bad Carol Jane didn't leave an email address. Hopefully, she will come back. Where did ou get your ticking stripe pillow covers? I love them!
ReplyDeleteSandy, those are from Taylor Linens. They have an on line shop.
DeleteThanks Kim!
DeleteLooks like you are all ready for Fall. Love Mango -He's a keeper and he looks great at the head of the bed. Makes me think of telling the mister to MOOOOOOOve over.
ReplyDeleteYou always do a nice job with pairing your linens and pillows. Have a great week. I expect you will be painting something! lol xo Diana
Kim - so cozy and inviting!
ReplyDeleteKim, you are the queen of layering and rearranging! Always so inspiring - beautiful room!

ReplyDeleteVery very Farmhouse country, love it!! Apparently I have a thing for cows. Every time you show one of your cow pieces I fall in love with them. This is definitely your most original and unique look to date!!great job, KIm!

ReplyDeleteCan you please give me the details on that great looking bed skirt? Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteSonja, it's by Pine Cone Hill and sold on Wayfair.com.
Deletethanks so much!
DeleteYou h ave just confirmed everything I was thinking about for our guesthouse. In the summer the bedroom looks great, cool and inviting against a backdrop of heat and sun outside. But now it feels cold as the temperatures are dropping. I need to change the blanket, change the pillows and add some warmth. Looks like I had better get to work!
ReplyDeleteWhat an excellent combination of colors and textures. That PB pillow is the perfect mix with the other pillows! Love the new picture and it is quite perfect for this room.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Kim! I love the plank wall!! I have to go back and read that post! The ticking stripes are so sweet and I LOVE the bed!!
ReplyDeleteLooks great Kim. Love the navy comforter!
ReplyDeleteYou know I love cows, so thumbs up, Kim. The bedding and pillows are perfect!
ReplyDeleteOh - I love Mango! The painting with the quilt and pillow combination is perfection! Love it all!
