This is another corner of my bedroom where I have a little dressing table. I found the table at a yard sale; it has two pull out arms in the front in order to access a little front drawer hidden under the fabric. I made the skirt out of that Ralph Lauren fabric (also seen in the foyer), which was a lucky find some years ago at Walmart, of all places. I also made a duvet cover for the bed of the same fabric.
The mirror was an estate sale find and has a bow detail at the top. I use a little china dish and a white pitcher to hold jewlery and makeup brushes. The tiny wicker basket keeps makeup out of sight. To the side are more of my wicker hamper collection, which I love to use for storage. I covered the seat of the yard sale chair with a piece of needlepoint I found on e-bay ~ it seemed a good match for the roses fabric.
I could not believe today was already Corners of my Home Thursday. That's the trouble with summer here ~ it just isn't long enough and we all try to pack in so much during this time that it flys by. I have a 'much too long' to-do list of things that really need to be done outdoors and am beginning to feel guilty about my computer time. Blueberries, zucchini, & cucumbers need picking and freezing/or baking. The chickens fence really needs painting, as well as the horses pasture fence, and weeding...there seems to be no end! So I'm off...have a great day everyone. Please know that I am enjoying and appreciate all your comments!
So pretty, and so well coordinated!!! I love the ideas for your make up and make up brushes!! My make up and my pretty new brushes (a recent treat for myself!!) are all in a drawer in my master bathroom. I'll be gleaning my cabinets for something similar to use on my bathroom counter! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI think it is wonderful you have put so much time and love into decorating your home. Good luck with your to-do list, remember to take the time to enjoy your efforts.
ReplyDeleteLooks so pretty. I love your storage ideas. I noticed those wicker hampers right away. :)
ReplyDeleteMy first thought when I saw that you had Corners of my Home was that it couldn't already be Thursday again. I am having a very lazy summer and it's still going by quickly!
Hope you get all that work done without getting too overheated.
The corners of your home are always very beautiful! I`m impressed :-)
