Getter done! Before and After Partay started!
Project mode big time over here at Debbiedoos!!~ It takes me a solid week or longer just to do a few room Fall changes. I bought this comforter set Better Homes and Gardens with the intentions of using it for Fall. Now some may say or think it is more Spring and Summer, however I really liked the colors and knew I could warm it up by adding chocolate browns. My room was in disaster mode when I started this project yesterday. I think I am finally finished. I needed one more final touch, and I thought of it today, came home did my mini project and added to it. I realize my taste may not suit everyone's liking...it is not intended too really. It is to inspire you to think outside the box, with accessories, colors and style.
Decisions Decisions....I have a thing for pillows, was not sure which one I wanted to use.
So I went onto another project in the meantime......same shade like I just bought from the Walmart for 7.00, I also bought this pretty blue base for 10.00. This was the final touch I needed.
Of course I had to embellish just a tad on this one. I used orange silk yarn, like you use to make a scarf and wrapped that around the top base. Added some pretty silk greenery.
And that is the end result.
Looks real pretty lit too!
I finally found a home for my mirror. It is on my side wall next to the bed. I am not sure how I really like it there...I tried over the bed, and it is too small.
Love my new little votive candles from Hobby lobby...set of three for $3.50.
Close up of my new bedding. As I mentioned from Better home and Gardens collection. King size set for 79.99...included shams and bedskirt. Awesome quality too. You see, I am not one to keep the same bedding all year round, I change out per season, I have 4-5 sets now, and to be honest that is all I have room for barely in my closets. I have to buy those space savers TOMORROW MOM!!~
So let me know what you think....as I mentioned I had every pillow combo and color, and this was my final decision.
My Link will be up come tomorrow for my Before and After party, this is the post I am using......
See ya then!!~ Thank you as always for stopping by.

I love the way you enhance your lamp shades. They look so much more interesting. La
I pray you never have to move! I live in a tiny house and have the threat to move all the time. i do like that most of your decor is versatile though. But thank goodness for all that storage you must have!
Oh I love it! Those pillows are great with the basket weave. I agree with you 100% those look like fall colors to me in this set. Love your mirror where it is and your new lamp is so trendy! Love the silk yarn. I bet your room probably appeals to alot more people then you think! It's fantastic!
Looks great! I have a fall/winter comforter and a spring/summer comforter. Although- I want new ones of both! lol
Oh Debbie, I think it looks beautiful! You've done a great job!
I completely understand the whole running out of storage for bedding. I have so many in my cedar closet because I, too, like to change with the seasons. Drives my husband nuts! They're just too bulky to store so I had to buy those Space Bags.
The lamp is ever so better after your touch. I actually painted two items yesterday. hugs♥olive
I love it! I totally think that it looks "fall"ish! And, I can't believe I have never commented on the fact that we have the same background on our blogs! I always noticed it but forgot to say something...great taste! :-) Thanks for sharing some fall inspiration!

Nicely done, once again, Debbie!
Liesl :)
Love the colors and the blue lamp with a shade of your tweaking is perfect. Love the bird votives, how cute!
I just adore the lamp revamp Debbie! And those colors work perfectly to roll into Autumn!
I like the Better Homes and Gardens from Wally World and your comforter set looks great!
Cindy
I think it came out beautiful! We all may have different tastes but there is always something that we can take away from each other no matter how different we are. I love the lamp you got and those two natural looking pillows on your bed are very cool!
Oh, you come up with the most wonderful ideas. Your room looks gorgeous and ready for fall. Just an FYI, I have a couple of Hanging Decor/Banners for Halloween in my shop, if you are interested. I will be adding more fall items in the near future.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful home. Mary O
So beautiful Debbie! I love the blue lamp and the embellishment on the shade.
Nice fall changes, Deb. Love the new bedding. Great color combos.
I think the comforter definitely looks like fall the way you have it and of course, the pretty orange colors. The lamp compliments it {you are going to have all of Blogland making those lamps!!}. Your room looks so elegant, love your drapes and the settee.
I'm so much like you, changing comforters and duvet covers out several times a year. When I wanted a new area rug to match my latest purchase, I knew I was sick!
Wish I knew about the party earlier, I just can't come up with anything now except inspiration!!

How fun, I love the fuzzy yarn, what a great use. Good job, Debbie.
Very beautiful Debbie...I think the spread fallish and the pillows add just the right touch. The lamp is so pretty and love the way your did the shade!
Hopefully I can join your party tomorrow or the next day if I get done:)

Wow your bedroom looks like it is from a magazine! Love you lamp embellishments- they turned out great.
Love it, your room looks fabulous and the lamp amazing.
Oh I love the colors. I don't like dark and gloomy for fall and winter, bright and happy is always my favorite. Everything looks just wonderful. The new bedding is sensational and so is the new lamp and shade. Beautifully done. Thanks so much for linking to TTT. Hugs, Marty
It all looks wonderful! I love what you do with all of your lamps!
Enjoy!

I love it, Debby! I love the embroidered pillows too. Love all the warm earth tone oclors, very inviting!...Christine
Your room looks so warm and inviting! The bedspread is beautiful, too.
Love it! And you are right, brown pulls the fall part together, smart! Look at you with another lamp! Love this, great little finishing details:)
I was dreading the end of summer and now you went and put me into a warm autumn mood! I'm feeling the fall decorating urge coming on....thanks for the inspiration!

Really great color choices, so calming and welcoming ...your shades are incredible...but what I really want is your energy...can you bottle it and start selling please!
Wow, now I think I have seen your whole house, it is beautiful! The bedroom is perfect, it looks really rich. Now don't you worry about everyone liking your taste....Just remember your blog, your way! And you do inspire! What fun would that be if everyone liked the same thing? Man, I can't wait till our Hobby Lobby opens, I love those candles!

Hey, Debbie! You have another winner on your hands. I love all the colors in your room. You've inspired me to try my hand at the lamps...I have a few shades that could use this technique. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Debbie,
I love your room! I like that they are not all dark. Great touch to the lampshade. I like your pillow collection. Especially the one that is blue trimmed, striped and with flowers. I love pillows too (ok, slight addiction). I typically change my linens twice - Spring/Summer & Fall/Winter. I do not have much room left for linen storage either. I need another antique chest. Linen and dishes/baking paraphernalia are my downfall... I told my son I need his closet but for some reason, he was not very cooperative!
~ Tracy
I love the room! Very inviting and warm. And the lampshade is fabulous!
Debbie you are talented! The lamp is gorgeous and unique. :)
Everything looks gorgeous. The new lamp is such a pretty addition to the room!
Deb... surprised you change the linens for the season...well, not one little bit. What a fun undertaking. And you have yarn...even better.
Hi Debbie,
Your mirror makeover is awesome! Love it! And your bedding and lampshade embellishment are perfect! I am linking up for the first time to your before & after party :) Thanks for hosting!

What a beautiful bedroom! I really like how you added a special touch to the lamp!
Thanks for hosting. The lamp shade turned out so cute and I love that bedding.
Beautiful room made-over! It's romantic and warm. You can decorate my room any time!
Debbie, Thanks for stopping by and reminding me to post!!
Every room needs something that is fun, unexpected, and a little whimsical. I love that you added just that to your lampshade! What fun, happy bedding, too. I like to change things out too- and you are so right- we need those space saver bags! Love how you call it "the Walmart." I always call it that and Wallymart. But then, I am silly like that...
hugs, Sue
Gorgeous. I love the bit of whimsy and style you added to the lamp - great colors! And so happy to see a photo of that gorgeous mirror too!
I like the way your decor looks so put together and in your own style.
