This painted vintage window hangs in one of the beach house bedrooms
Brightly colored Caribbean cottages are painted on the window and flanked by similar metal cottages
Yellow walls, bright colors and a sunny switch plate…
This room is also where my daughter, “Miss Gray & White,” and her husband sleep when they’re here
I just found out she hates the bedspread 😳
After noticing she had a white cover on this bed one day I asked “Why did you bring your own bedspread?”
“I don’t like that quilt, the material feels funny” she said 😝
😱 I was shocked
When I got the quilt and shams a few years ago I picked them out because it’s sort of a purple-gray & white, reversing to yellow and white…I thought she’d love it!
“Oh!” I said, “I had no idea!”
As much as I’d like to wiggle my nose and have this room instantly repainted and transformed, I did the next best thing…
I went cyber shopping with a cocktail and a view 🍹
Ahhh, the magic of UPS…
Reversible sand dollar cotton quilt set with 2 shams and new drapes
Don’t you just love instant decorating?
Eventually I want to change out the artwork, and paint the walls and the dressers, but in the meantime, I just made a tiny adjustment to the decor with a little paint
I changed the purple houses on the window to navy blue
I painted over some of the colors on the metal houses so they would match the new navy and white
The photo makes it look black but it’s really navy
The room is also not quite as yellow as it looks in these photographs
I shopped the house for other blue & white accessories
Just for fun I painted the room and dressers with the PicMonkey draw effect and added a PicMonkey mirror and my Glass Filled Lantern
I am working on a large acrylic lobster trap buoy painting inspired by this one from Trip Park, maybe it would look good
Or maybe I could just hang this “Beach Chairs” painting
hmmmm….I think I’m going to tell DD and NG to pack their paint brushes next time they come 😉
