Bedroom #1-- Walls & Doors were washed with Lysol. Dresser was dusted, and dresser drawers were de-cluttered . Mopped floors and under bed. Wow.. how does that much dust accumlate in 4 months?? |
Doors were washed with Lysol. I did not get to the inside of the closet..That is to come.. |
What a beautiful room, should be in a Country Living magazine. Is that a Jenny Lind bed? I just bought a Jenny Lind head/foot board bed, in great condition. Your granddaughters are going to have some cute dresses...they are so blessed to have a grandma who sews. Looking forward to seeing the end results of the chair make over. I love giving old pieces new lives.
ReplyDeleteThank you.. You are so sweet. The bed room suite is really old. My husband bought it from his brother [about 30 yrs ago] and he and his wife had it for probably 20 yrs before that. So..it is old..It is solid and will probably last forever. I will take a photo of the headboard and show you one day..
DeleteThe dresses are for my Granddaughter to take to the childrens home. She is a senior and is doing a project to encourage people to help children in need. Several ladies are sewing too.. But, I do sew for the grands too. However, they are about to all get grown.. not fun to sew for them now.smile
Judy you are working hard! It's so nice to see it all getting accomplished. I've made pillowcases dresses before for Africa. They are easy and I love to make them. Can we contribute too? I would love it! I'm canning those mustard greens today and it definitely smells like Fall here too. Downright chilly at night. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteOh Vickie, That would be wonderful. A true blessing from God. thank you.. Emily will appreciate any dresses you make.
DeleteI am loving the fall air.. fun..
Your bedroom is lovely! I should mop some of my hardwood floors, too, but for now, I am just vacuuming them. Hope you have fun sewing those dresses. That's a wonderful thing your granddaughter is doing and good of you and the other ladies to help by sewing.
ReplyDeleteThank you BLess..It is really small/as is, this house. ha But, we are managing fine, with the downsizing. I am just wondering how we will manage Christmas and the major holidays, when all the kids/grandkids are home? ha
DeleteI am so proud of Emily and this project that she is doing.. It will be fun making the little pillow case dresses..
It's taken so long to get your little home in order. So much to do. But it's looking really smart now, and should be much easier to look after in the years to come. And somehow all will fit at Xmas - you will work out a solution, I am sure. And what lovely work Emily is doing.
ReplyDeleteTHank you Sarah liz.. It has been a long time and lots to do..Hope life settles now, and I can resume a 'normal life" .ha
ReplyDeleteVery proud of Emily.
The room looks inviting! I can't wait to see your updates on your projects.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Laura of Harvest Lane Cottage

DeleteI am going to update the sewing and chair redo soon..Just need to get photos..BLessings to you too.
