Christmas In The Bedroom

This is the first year with the new
Craig's List bed at Christmas.
I added lighted garland across the top.
Notice what else has been added?
Yes, that's Lucy. 
 I used the same red and white checked quilt.
 I hung a red and white checked stocking.
 The other side has a quilted stocking.
The quilt set is from JCP.
I skirted the table with a matching sheet.
I added a plaid Longaberger topper and 
changed the pictures for the 4 black framed 
cardinal Christmas cards.
A Lenox cardinal plate on a stand.
A Santa and tree sit on nearby 
Longaberger baskets.
Across the room is the sitting area.
 It has the antique wicker furniture and maple trunk.
Silver tea set, candles and Spode china on an
 embroidered table square that's been in
the family for years.
Free Craig's List louvered doors serve as a 
room divider. I tucked vintage handkerchiefs 
in the slats.
A trash find basket sprayed white is
used as an end table.
Lucy gets a red sweater cover on her pillow.
She loves her little basket by my bed.
Here's the bedroom last year with the
wrought iron canopy bed.
That's the only change.

and to all a goodnight.....

  15. Your bedroom is lovely, I love every part of it, you did such a great job decorating it for the holidays that actually I feel like laying there right now! Just got back home yesterday from a week of helping my daughter move to her new home and I'm still very tired and all I needed to see is this beautiful, cozy and inviting bedroom! Merry Christmas and many blessing to you and yours.

  18. Merry Greetings, Rita!

    I am in love with both versions of your bedroom and, of course, little Lucy!!! How precious she is. I enjoy having my bedrooms decorated for the season, too. I especially love snuggling down under the pretty flannel sheets on Christmas Eve and drifting off to sleep with the softness of the lights glowing from the tree on our bedside table...visions of sugarplums! Lol You did a marvellous job of creating Christmas in your bedroom!

    Happy Christmas and a Glad New Year!

  23. Rita, OMGosh! Your room is fabulous, and look at that cute little "elf" on your bed. I'm loving all the red and white, and your new head board is gorgeous. I'm another one who's checking out JCP to see if they still carry that quilt.
    Wishing you and your family a wonderful Christmas.

  24. Your bedroom is gorgeous! The prettiest I've seen at Christmas! It makes me want to move out the treadmill from the corner of my room, and use it as a seating area! Love the cardinal nightstand, too! The Lenox plate is gorgeous! Really like the bedding, too! Merry Christmas!

  27. This room looks like it belongs in a design magazine and home. Too beautiful to mess up! Oh, my goodness it is wonderful. You have done an outstanding job, are you taking reservations for 2012 to help me decorate?
    Your Yorkies are precious, mine is 4 lb. and goes everywhere I do. Don't they have the most delightful personalities?

    Merry Christmas!
