| | Comments (4)
Today's show and tell theme is the view from your pillow by Blackbird.

This is the view sort of straight up. I am propped on 2 pillows. With the tooth thing I am not supposed to sleep flat, which I never do any way! We plan to replace this light fixture with a Hunter ceiling fan. I have my eye on an cherry finish and am waiting to see if it will go on sale before the heat of summer grips us.

This is the view to the right. My husband's pillow. Complete with his box of snack's sitting on his nightstand.

This is the view to my right. My nightstand. The panel in the wall is the entrance to all of the plumbing in the house. The big box is my oldest daughter's birthday present. Her birthday is the 18th. I have to keep her out of my bedroom! I have made it off limits to all children until then!

This is looking straight ahead from my perch on the bed. The large mule chest is my 'dresser'. I love that the center door has a full length mirror. In the corner is the roll of toile fabric I will be making our bedroom drapes out of.

This is sort of a lower left view. This is my husbands chest of drawers. The top pieces are a butler's box, which has his 3 class rings (high school, RIT and GWU) tie tacks, and little things he has collected from his childhood to now. The large chest is the box I bought for him to use as his "landing pad". He has a bad habit of emptying his pockets anywhere he pleases, leaving little piles here and there. When we clean I put his things away and he cannot find them because they are not left in piles everywhere. This is the answer. He is supposed to unload his pockets in the evening into that chest. Most of the time he does. The paint colors for the room do not show well. We have not painted this room since we moved in. The walls are a french vanilla color named Williamsburg Parlor Cream. The trim is Williamsburg China Closet Red. I do plan to keep the paint colors. I really like them. It is not a bright red. It is deep muted red the exact color of toile crimson fabric.

I love your furniture, the red, and the fact that that husband of yours has to have snacks!

I love the wooden bedroom set with the light color of the room. Looks luxurious.

You actually let him eat snacks in the bed?? Don't tell my husband, or he'll want to also.
