Decorating - Inrichting

I had started a metamorphosis of the bedroom in July which is still ongoing. Bit by bit I am decorating the room. I have some treasures still stashed away like a compact and a vanity case I bought two years ago. Still thinking about a rug and more scrumptious bedding, some flowers, a pair of shoes casually lying around, a négligé thrown on the bed...

Ik was begonnen met een metamorfose van de slaapkamer en die gaat nog steeds door. Beetje bij beetje wordt de kamer ingericht. Ik heb nog wat spulletjes ergens opgeborgen zoals een poederdoos en een make-up doos. Ik denk nog na over een vloerkleed, mooier beddengoed, bloemen, een paar rondslingerende schoenen en een négligé over het bed.

For now, it's the little red velvet chair I made. I followed Lea Frisoni's instructions in her boek Le Grand Livre de la Maison Miniature but I found it more complicated than it appeared. I also made a big boo-boo which you will probably notice. But you know what, the chair is really comfortable so boo-boo or not, it stays! ;-)

Voorlopig is het een rood fluwelen stoeltje dat ik heb gemaakt. Ik heb de instructies uit Lea Frisoni's boek Le Grand Livre de la Maison Miniature gevolgd maar het was niet zo duidelijk als ik dacht. Ik heb ook een blunder gemaakt die jullie misschien wel zien maar de stoel is echt heel comfortabel dus blunder of niet, hij blijft.




In case you think it's the stars you can see from the window.... it's not but it sure looks nice! ;-)
(the house came with specs of paint on all windows. I haven't cleaned all of them yet)

Voor het geval je denkt dat het de sterrenhemel is die je ziet door het raam... dat is het niet maar het ziet er wel mooi uit ;-)
(het huis kwam met verfspetters op de ramen en ik heb ze nog niet allemaal schoongemaakt)

  2. Although the additions you're planning for this room sound like very good ideas I must say this room looks already very good and almost complete to me. The most important thing to make a room complete, cozy and inviting is already there - the teddybear! ;o) And your chair looks very lovely... and I declare the fabric's stripes to be just the way they should be! It looks more interesting, stylish and eclectic this way! *wink*

  3. Hi Veronique! Sorry I am so late to get over here and add my two cents worth! I think the chair you made looks wonderful and very comfortable! I have not yet tried Lea's furniture tutorials... but I have the book and HOPE that when I get started that the results will be as good as yours appears to be! I do think those are the stars out the window... and I would keep to that story myself! LOL! I love the look you have made so far with the mixed patterns of paper and the clean lines of the furniture. It looks very "home-like" to me... and as Birgit has pointed out... The Teddy is already there! LOL!

    1. Thank you Betsy for your kind words. I know when you get round to making something from Lea's book it will be magnificent! You have so much more experience.

  4. I LOVE pink bedrooms and yours looks dainty and girly and Perfect for Angelique! I love the way the drapes match the wall covering and having the solid colored chair with the deeper richer shade of rose is the PERFECT compliment with the rest of the room's decor. Your plans to include those additional accessories sound intriguing and I Really like the idea of a negligee on the bed! :)
    The only thing I think you may want to consider is an area rug on the floor to keep her feet warm as Angelique gets ready for bed.

    1. Thank you Elizabeth!
      Yes, I need a rug but I want to find the right one so until then, she'll have to wear slippers. Which I will make of course ;-)
