After being off a week on vacation celebrating my hubby and my 12 year anniversary, this week at work has been full. A good week; but a full week. I am now ready to chill for the weekend.
This is a long time coming; but my hubby and I were finally able to redecorate our bedroom. Designs have been flowing in our heads.
We found this painting while searching for the furniture; and I fell in love with it. The name of the painting is Dancers Practicing; but I also see a finished garment being modeled. Me being dreamy again.
Picture for the Master Bedroom
We have been looking for years for bedroom furniture. We just could not find what we wanted. And the ones that we really liked were also really expensive. We recently purchased a new mattress for our bed. We decided that it was now time to buy a new bed frame. My long-time dream of mine has been to get a canopy bed with tall columns. And if it was in cherry wood, that would the icing on the cake. With an idea of what we wanted, we ventured out to the furniture stores to see what we could find. We went to one furniture store and the representative said that they do not sell canopy beds due to the economy right now. What? No canopy beds? I guess you could say that my style is more extravagant than others; but that is what I have always liked. I would have thought that they would have had at least one canopy suite available.
Not deterred by one store’s lack of style, we found exactly what we wanted at Value City Furniture. When we first saw the Barcelona Bedroom Suite, we immediately knew that it was the one that we wanted. Columns, Yes! Canopy, Yes! Cherry Wood, Yes! We had to decide if we wanted to purchase only the bed frame or do we go all out and purchase the additional matching pieces. The bed frame was an excellent value; but when you add in the chest of drawers, the night stand, the dresser and the mirror; we realized that we were getting an extraordinary value that could not be passed up. We loved the wood carving details and we knew that getting the complete set was the only option.

I just love the Corinthian style bed post columns!

The Linens
Quilt: I love toile so that screams charm and sheer comfort.
Shams: Toile
Pillow case: I sleep on a satin pillow case because it is great for my hair (reduces breakage). It is not good for me to sleep on a cotton pillowcase.
Sheets: 400 Thread count yellow sheets (contrast with the cream and red toile quilt).
Here are a couple of tips to make your bedroom your safe haven:
1. Remove clutter.
2. Take out all work materials and computer equipment.
3. Take out the Television if you can. I know that this is dependent on the space you have.
4. Turn off all the noise to get a restful night’s sleep.
5. Put on your favorite sheets and your plush comforter. Total luxury!
The bedroom should be clutter-free and without chaos. We deal with so much stuff during the day, whether we are at work or just dealing with the cares of the day. The bedroom should be a place of peace.
I consider my home a castle because God blessed me with it. I want each room in my castle to look beautiful. When I come home from work, I open my door, I walk in my house and say my goodness this is really wonderful. Just puts a smile on my face.
Wow! That is a very nice painting!!! ^-^ perfect for bedroom!
Thanks Shareena,
I had to have that painting when I saw it. It was a good deal too.
ok first of all you are Sooooo right about the removing clutter thing and computer/work items. I tend to let this stuff clutter in my bedroom, although I do clean it out at least once a week.
second, I LOVE that painting. It is so beautiful and bright. As a matter of fact it would go great in my living room LOL.
I went to Kenneth Copeland’s victory crusade yesterday and one of the things that was being taught was living in the Kingdom. I purchased a small booklet about God and finances. Well, I have to say that I’ve been already starting to meditate on the Word for finances. Ok what does this have to do with decorating? Well, I’m believing God for a house and in my mind I can already see what the rooms look like. Let’s just say I’m decorating them in my head.
The kitchen has brownish marble counters and cedar wood cabinets. The walls will be peach. The floor will be a nice tile with a combination of the peach and cedar colors. Oooh I gotta get started and write this all down. You’ve inspired me!
Hi Michelle!
Happy Sunday to you. It’s been a rainy day today, but service was awesome. Pastor taught on how to live a Godly single life and how to be happy and married. Gotta communicate!
I use to have a desk in my bedroom with the computer and that was not good at all so out it went. I bet that Kenneth Copeland Victory crusade was awesome. I have to check to see if I have that book God and Finances, have to get that on my nook. Please let me know if there’s a cd of the that teaching on the Kingdom.
If there’s a Value City Furniture store in your area check to see if they have the painting or maybe you could order it and have it shipped. Would you believe it was only $59 for this oil painting. Please let me know and I could have it shipped to you.
Would you believe my hubby and I are believing God for a bigger home. I am an agreement with you for your new home. Sounds beautiful, good to write it down and put that sheet of paper in a place where you can see it everyday.
Glad you are inspired.
Oh really?? I have to remember that for when I have some extra income come in. I really like that painting.
The actual title of the booklet is God’s Creative Power for Finances. It’s written by Charles & Annette Capps. It’s a small booklet.
I have the leather bound mini book by Charles Capps. It include God’s Creative Power Will Work for You, God’s Creative Power for Healing and God’s Creative Power for Finances. It’s in my purse everyday. The scriptures are priceless.
Oh they had the other 2 also but I didn’t see 1 with all of them in it.
I’m looking for a new study bible. one that has commentary.
oh I forgot. Yes you can get the teachings on CD or DVD by calling them at Call 1.800.600.7395
Just tell them you are interested in the Meadowlands Victory Campaign that was on Sept
16-17
Thank you Michelle.
