Guest room suite with a garden view

So it all began with chalk paint.
Thanks Miss Mustard Seed, you have created a chalkmonster out of me.

 I know you have all been waiting patiently for my room reveal...so here it goes.
I am sure some of the snippets were not even making sense color wise.

Like where does orange come into play here?

So today the sun was shining! I could take some pictures finally. Sorry I am weird like that..I refuse to take pictures on a crappy day.

Blue has always been my favorite color, and I have no problem mixing different variations of blue together..

it works for me.

I do believe every room in your house should reflect

your personality.

This Mexican pottery light was in our first Florida home hanging over our kitchen table. I still adore it.

I hope when our guests come they feel the fun and energy we have to share.

I think they do, they keep coming back!

Color scheme, blues, lime green, yellow, orange, dash a white, wall  color by Restoration hardware, cappuccino. Lamp bought at World Market several years ago.

Wishing I had no glare on the pictures..I may remove the glass...

View out the window

I will be showing you the chair makeover soon, third one since I have had it.

Better shot of treatment on my chalk painted furniture.

Here is where the orange ties in, I bought this piece for the TV at World Market last year marked down on clearance.

I used two different stencil paint pens for this flower.

I had some left over fabric from the chair and thought it would look cute tied to the blue pillow...

And there you have it.

This room redo was all done on a small budget.

So the room makeover over was approximately $250.00

Resources I used:
Hobby Lobby
(stencil, fabric)
Chalk paint
TJ Maxx 
(Cynthia Rowley collection)
Walmart 
(Better Homes and gardens collections, sheets and picture frames)
You don't even have to waste your gas to go shopping, shop on line it's cheaper these days
some places even offer free shipping.
Wait just one minute...here is the very BEFORE bedroom

It was fun, and I still love the coverlet...I will use this one in the Fall and Winter months.
I will be linking to some fun parties later on.
Have to run out this evening for a school band meeting.
My son is leaving for a four day band event in Orlando.
I am so jealous!

Once again participating in my favorite partay of the week, Miss Jenny's Alphabet Rainbow party. YELLOW!!~ Is the color this week. So it Seems it is a little quiet these days for thrifting.  I managed to hit Goodwill the other day with my son Jack.  He grosses out at the thought that these things where actually other peoples, I reassured him we clean them good of other peoples cooties.  I found this little tray, it is not silver just something cheap made in China...but none the less cute with some pretty detail. Took me little time to clean it and transform it to life again.

BEFORE....I paid $2.99 for this little tray...I just thought it was cute though....and what color did I choose you ask????

Little paint, little craft glaze later...I have an elegant little platter...

I just love this photo is all.....I will be re-posting this tomorrow sometime for my Garage SALEN partay...see you then for linking up.

Here are some parties I will be joining as well:
