That old saying 'a change is as good as a holiday' has a bit of truth in it. While I would have preferred lying by the beach on a tropical island or exploring the lane ways of Paris, I have still really enjoyed rearranging all the furniture in my guest room around! I started off by moving the bed under the window which makes it more of a focal point. I used my new chair for inspiration for the colour scheme and was delighted to find some of the same fabric with which I made a matching cushion. The $15 yellow shade from Target ties in perfectly and has brightened the whole room up.

If you are feeling in need of a holiday, but it isn't going to happen, why not change a room around instead.

Hello you gorgeous girls - this looks fab, don't forget 3 of the sons are in Melbourne, I may need to make a booking for that lovely room!

Gorgeous room, the yellow lamp shade is a lovely touch.x
Your room is lovely. You are inspiring me to do something in the house to change it up a bit. Every now and then a change just does a body good. I love the pillow cushion you made from the table cloth. It is simply beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Connie :)
I totally agree and you've done a beautiful job. My favourite part is the chair. Isn't it refreshing? I rearranged the lounge room and it was much cheaper than buying something new to give the room some spice!!!
lovely fresh style.
I love the way you've given an old tablecloth a new way to be appreciated - gorgeous cushion and it all ties in so well together x
