Bonjour! About flower decoration, I believe that flowers arrangements with long stems in a clear glass vase look their best below eye-level. If they are too high, our eyes mostly see the stems, rather than the beautiful flowers and petals which can hardly be seen if they are above eye level. Even more so with artificial bouquets, because fake stems rarely look natural. On a low table, the stems won't be so apparent and all the focus will be on the flowers. On a higher surface/dresser/shelf, I think bouquets with shorter stems and larger flowers will look perfect and more balanced. The higher they are, the less we see the beauty of the flowers. It is just my observation of course 🙂

I agree with you. I don't like looking at stems so I often cut my stems down and place flowers in a low vase.
@TheLadyoftheHouse2 жыл бұрын
I agree, some stems just look fake. I keep this in mind now. Finding vases that don't show stems are a great investment too.

Hello from cold 🥶 Illinois. This morning it was 3 degrees. Guess what though, I’m dressed in a soft house dress, tights and a cozy cashmere turtleneck. Grabbing a couple more sips of coffee before I get to work. Today I’ll do some decluttering in my basement. I have my crafts and small office down there. I’m going to pop over to church this afternoon and do a pretty floral arrangement for the entrance. Just for fun.

Such a delight to see your video today! We are in the snow and ice and my bathrobe is fuzzy and warm, but oh, yours is so lovely. Once the weather warms up, I plan to purchase something as pretty and feminine. I still have the bedroom set I bought 40 years ago which is dark cherry. I love your bed since it looks so feminine and what a great price! I will keep mine because I'm happy enough with it. I tend to buy more classic pieces and keep them for a very long time. Also, I just love you took Ivan out for some alone time and that you do the same with your girls.

I have a wrought iron bed that is a full size. Is yours a full size too? The vintage iron beds do not come in Queen size because that was a later invention. My mother in law shared our bed that she gave to us with her 3 sisters. Yes, they all slept together in the bed. The only problem is that it can scrape the wall. Watch out for rough pieces on the base of the headboard which can scrape the wall. Your bed is very, very pretty! These white iron beds look great in any size room but especially a smaller room because they are so light and airy. Sweet dreams !

Hi Nikki, I'm so delighted for you with your haven of a room! It is romantic, charming, soft and ethereal! My husbands' and my bedroom is a work in progress. All of our bedroom furniture is the same yellow as your former chest. I want to paint it very badly but I'm not well and haven't been for many years. I grow impatient sometimes with how slow everything comes but the Lord fills me with his peace and I am good! What a blessing though to see your room furniture painted cream just like I want to do! It gives me hope for the time I'm better and stronger. We too just got new bed stuff. I found an incredible french style headboard of Facebook Marketplace, we were so blessed to find!

Hi Nikki, Love your new bed frame and painted furniture all together! So glad you painted it white; are they all the same paint color? I saw those beautiful towels the other night and almost bought a set to see how they wash up; with so many girls, we tend to get pulls of thread on the towels so I usually buy Turkish towels with a tight weave. It’s so fun to take just one child on a special errand; our youngest son heard this and he wants to know how old he is. Kids love these things. 😊 Thanks for sharing this beauty; I refreshed our great room this week and my family appreciates it. All the best, Julie 🌷

Oh the new bed is so pretty! And I really love how that tall thin chest of drawers turned out. I find that when you have several pieces of furniture in not a very big room, to tone down the pieces, kind of makes them go away and feel like less is in the room. It really is more calming and serene that way. As always, you did such a beautiful job!

Some of the round pieces were replaced with ceramic knobs then painted with roses. It looked lovely. You got a great price too. 🛏🗄🥀

You are talking and them I say Nikki tell me about your curtains .where do you get them and how often do you wash them. I have never really had curtains I could wash. I just love them. I just love the new bed. It is so beautiful and your bedroom is so lovely. How do you do it? You tell me and then when I go home I incorporate your ideas. I love your calendar… now I do my calendar like yours. I also am learning to put wax seals on my cards…. Thanks to you. I have always been a paper and calligraphy fan. Beautiful stationary and cards.
