Last week while my husband was out of town I was in a whirlwind of decorating frenzy! I painted our kitchen a lovely golden yellow and added some new accessories, in one of our guest bedrooms I made purchased valances "custom" by adding fabric trim to match the comforter and shams and also added a new coverlet and additional shams for contrast (pictured below). But the best is our other guest bedroom (pictured above). Copying a picture from Better Homes and Gardens I painted this great focal point on the wall, purchased all new bedding and hung a rod and matching valances. WHEW! And, to add stress to my schedule, I had to make a wedding cake for 100 and deliver it today (the Kewpie doll cake topper is the bride's family heirloom and is 102 years old). When I returned from dropping off the tasty creation, we hung new rods and valances in the MBR. All in all - it was a bit of a makeover. I love everything...but now I really need a rest!
Last weekend I went to visit my daughter and grandchildren. We had such a wonderful time together – as always. We had dinner at Zuzda’s – one of our favorite tapas restaurants, went to church and just played and played!
