Bedroom #1 Redo

My big, huge, 24-hr.

weekend project --

converting Office/Craft Room

into a Bedroom

was a great success.

The cute twin bed was given to me

by my "friend of many years"

(NOT old friend!)

:)

and it is just perfect in this room.

It was one of two twin bed in Susan's room

when she was a girl.

I spent many fun times at Susan's house.

Two things stand out:

1. While playing in their attic (something I knew

nothing about),

I stepped wrong, off the beams,

and stuck my leg clear through the ceiling.

I was just hanging there, laughing and

totally embarassed.

I mean, really???

what do you say to people when you just

made a sizable hole in their living room ceiling?

and 2.

I remember once we made mud pies

and got just a tad bit carried away.....

we covered every bit of skin that stuck out of

our clothes with a thick coat of mud.

Then --- hosed off out in the yard.

OH and 3.

Susan's mom made THE best cream puffs

you ever laid lips on !!!

Oh. my. gracious.

yum

Anyway, thank you Susan --

I love it!

Meet "Dudley"

I got him at Christmas at Old Fort Concho

a couple of years ago.

It was love at first sight !

I had to have him!

I was so very glad he was almost within the budget.

He is sooooo sweet.

And he has been everywhere....

on the back porch surrounded by

old branding irons.

over the fireplace.

in the dining room holding Stetsons.

The stunning quilt was given to me by my

Mamaw,

about 25 years ago.

It was THE best Christmas present

I ever got from her.

She made it years before that

and just kept it until I was old enough

to appreciate it.

These two silhouettes are of Mamaw and Papaw.

Stamped on the bottom of each card:

Rock City, Tenn

That's all I know about them.

Aren't they cute?

And it looks just like them.

Hmmmmmmmmmm

this sign was

uhhhhhh

borrowed...

from the road

which was named after

my grandparents,

which is, I am sure

what motivated

someone???

to "borrow"

said sign.

It's black and white

and ever so cute,

yes?
