Master Bedroom, Buffalo Check, and Turquoise
Happy Sunday everyone, around here today we are getting ready for a big snow storm. It looks like 10-12″ is coming our way. Hubby and I ran a few errands yesterday and stopped by the grocery store for a mini cart load of items (you know those tiny carts that look like there made for kids) anyway what a big mistake that was. The checkout lines were halfway through the store, it took us an hour of standing in line before it was our turn. I think my big bag of frozen blueberries even had time to defrost. People sure do act crazy when a storm is coming. Anyway this is what I wanted to show you today. I made a few color changes in the master bedroom.
You all know my friend Kris from Junk Chic Cottage right? Well I got this wonderful email from her right after Christmas, she was taking down her red and white themed decor and thought many of the items would look great in our home and wanted to know if I would like them. Well heck ya, I was delighted Kris thought of me (she’s just sweet that way). In the box was the red and white buffalo check fabric curtain (amongst several other things, more on that in a later post).
I think they look beautiful in our loft bedroom and what a kind, caring person to offer everything to me. I just love my fellow bloggers they truly are a fantastic group of people. To add a little Valentine’s flair to the bedroom I made the paper heart garland on the quilt cabinet.
Here’s a list of where the decor items are from. I’ll be back next week with some new items I have listed in my shop too, so come back by.
Where it came from:
Ticking Flannel Sheets – Garnet Hill
Solid Flannel Pillowcases – Garnet Hill
Buffalo Check Curtains – Tablecloths made into curtains by Kris
Turquoise Embroidered Rose Throw Pillows – TjMaxx
Turquoise Broyhill Lamps – TjMaxx
Bedside Roses – TjMaxx
Framed Art – My own photography, and developing
Chair – Garage sale
Red & White Quilt – Antique shop
You have such a pretty and spacious bedroom, Dawn, and those curtains looks great!
Angie yes it’s a huge room, enough space to have a sitting and dining space too.
Such wonderful generosity and it looks so wonderful in your left bedroom.
Thanks Linda I am loving the look.
Looks beautiful, Dawn. And how generous of Kris! You know I love this particular color combination!

Claudia
Yes Claudia the color combination just scream your name.
How sweet of Kris to send you the red checked curtains. You know I love those and your room is so cute with the additions.
Kim I know she is a wonderful person:)
I love the curtains, your room is so pretty! Thank you for adding where you found different items. Checked curtains are in my future now too. :). Hugs,
Sandi thank for stopping in, nothing better than checked curtains they go with so many things.
I have some red buffalo check fabric still waiting to be made into some curtains for our dining area, every time I see yours I get to itchin’ to get them done. Time has been lacking but not the desire. one day soon! I love your bedroom, such a cheery place.
Pam you can always do like I do when Im in a pinch for time. I use double face tape instead of stitching them. LOL don’t tell my secret!
What a wonderful thing for your fellow blogger to do – and the room looks great! I have had my eye on those very same lamps but am not sure they are quite the right color for our master bedroom (which is very soft green and more of a grey/blue).
Barb the lamps are definitely a turquoise blue no green what-so-ever. I really like them but I bet they would look great against the soft green you have.
I love how wide open your room is…and one of my favorite combos is red and turquoise! So refreshing and pretty. 🙂
Thanks Ann that color combination is a favorite of mine right now as well 🙂
Always a treat to have a friend give you something you’ll use and appreciate. Keep warm and safe. Kathleen In Az
Kathleen, Im freezing here we got about 18 inches of snow and it’s still coming down.
What a generous lady she is..I like red & turquoise too Dawn..I sure wish my bedroom was that big!
Nancy I know wasn’t that sweet of her. I love our large bedroom too 🙂
You are so right, Kris is a most wonderful and caring person..not to mention generous!….the curtains look fabulous in the room and I am so loving that color combination!!!….Yes, must say that fellow bloggers are the best!….Beautiful loft bedroom Dawn!
Thank you Shirley it’s so nice to make so many friends from blogging. I’ve been friends with many for years.
