Bedroom Update!

Some major changes have been happening around here lately.  We have gone from this:


To this!



Please pardon the camera.  Unfortunately, the best camera we own is an iPhone.  The rug came from Urban Outfitters and the chevron pillows came from Joss and Main from the most recent "Pillows Under $50" sale.  The "Hello Sexy" pillow was purchased at a local store called Feathernesters.  I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the Richmond area.  The patchwork quilt in the first picture was actually a wedding gift to my parents and my mom gave it to me a long time ago.  

We got rid of the chest at the end of the bed because all it did was encourage us not to put clothes away.   Also, we decided to live with the pink striped bed skirt for now since we are going to eventually upgrade to a queen-size bed.  

I'm thinking about painting my bedside table navy, possibly with chalk paint.  I like what I've seen so far in other people's projects and it might be perfect for the look I want.  I also have to paint the walls and put up some art because the walls are in need of some serious TLC.  


In the meantime, Billy is throughly enjoying the newly decorated bedroom:

So I thought I was back in September but...

This guy arrived!

Three weeks old and abandoned by his mama.  We originally thought the was a girl so he was Penelope for 24 hours before we took him to the vet.  Introducing Billy Bacon!


He's been with us for about two months now and I'm hoping that with work somewhat under control and both Billy and Sassy past the two month mark that I will have time to blog!  I've gotten a lot done but haven't had time to write about it.  Updates in the kitchen, dinning area, living room, bedroom, and guest room.  Whew!
