Here a Bed..There a Bed....

posted her new spring bedding on the very same day I was working on a post
of changing out MY bedding...


I was shocked to see that my bedding, while not nearly as lovely...
and certainly not famous brands,
was very similar in colors to hers.

After seeing her prettiness, I am going to start watching for pretty pillowcases
You can click HERE to see how she does such a classy job on budget bedding.


Here's the starting of my spring bed...
it's pretty much the same as last spring and summer....
very casual...
very comfy..
my mother always had the most comfortable ...and comforting beds
and MY bed is a lot like it was when I was a kid.


Everything is soft and durable...
easy to climb into for a nice, long nap EVERY day.


I haven't bought anything new for this year..
same wall hanging and quilt...


On one bedside table..a favorite read....


always a tiny bit of black and white sprinkled around...

(I've already changed out those flowers for the lime green hydrangeas...
fickle, I tell you.)


I just can't decorate....or live... without a touch of whimsy...
just can't have all serious stuff...
really SERIOUS stuff just doesn't make me feel like smiling.



I bought this book at a thrift store not long ago...

Since EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND is one of my favorite re-runs now, I thought I'd like this book about DORIS ROBERTS...

...haven't started reading it yet but

it's on my bedside table on the other side of the bed...
and next in line to read.



Did you notice that cute little clock...

tiny...

charming...

one of those little "tuck in" pieces..

love it to pieces....

I bought this pillow last summer and I just LUV to snuggle up against it
and watch tv at night.
************************************
I can change looks up a bit with these neutral colors..
*


I like using this monogrammed pillowcase sometimes...

and it being black and white, I can just add it to the 
cream and white bedding and ....
it works.


I have several different pillows with turquoise in them...
I am SOOO  addicted to PILLOWS...
just love 'em and have them stuck everywhere...
under beds...in closets...drawers...
it's pitiful.


and Stacy girl painted the vintage wooden bed tray for me.
Isn't it adorable.?

I use it ALL THE TIME .....


I think it's lots of fun to throw in different things in a room every now and then....
keeps things fresh...
colorful ....
alive....



Leaving you with
A FOOD REVIEW....


This may not be new to you...
but I just discovered it this very week...
and I tell you...
I AM IN LUV FOREVER.

I'll tell you a little later how I used it in a recipe
and it nearly knocked our sox right off our feet...

  1. I love the colors you have used for the summer bedroom BJ. So soft and comforting. The sparkly pillow and the monogrammed pillow are gorgeous! I got those tablecloths you told me about from Boscovs and hung them in the living room. LOVE them! I blogged it yesterday :)

  2. My bedroom stays the same, summer, winter, have no place to store extra linens so I just use the same bedspread, pillow shams etc. I like your colors. And, I am with you, girl, on those naps. Maybe just 10-15 minutes so necessary. don't you think!!

  11. Every look at your bed today is different, fresh, cosy, and the blue pillow with arms, very comfortable.. I made Hugh a "boomerang" or triangle one, but yours is great. Bedside reading, I have ALWAYS had a book or two or more right there. Today, with heavy rain forecast, light rain right now, maybe the bed and a good book is ordered. Enjoy your weekend when it arrives.

  14. I recently got new bed sheets/blankets and they were dark red. On a side note, not very summery for my room.

  21. You know I've just changed over to our winter sheets on the bed and they are a pale blue check. I thought how pretty it looked against the duvet cover and pillows so I might get a new blue throw to go on the bed...but don't tell anyone :) and maybe a cushion...or 2...

My bedroom is in shades of brown and tan. I'd like to add a little more colr and your coice of a light blue looks pretty, bj.

  24. Your bed does look so comfy and snuggy, bj. I love the touches of turquoise that you add, and I love your vintage tray. I use a tray every morning in bed...my indulgence that I've carried on that my late beloved and I always did.
    Happy weekend to you.

  32. Your bedroom looks lovely, bj. I love your vintage bed tray. The sausage sounds good, I'll have to look for it and try it out. It's all about the food, I say! lol! Have a nice weekend.

  33. Looks wonderful, BJ! I'd like to spruce up my bedroom but I'm holding back until I'm ready to peel the wallpaper (on just two walls), add some molding and do some painting. Whew! Just typing that wore me out! :D

  34. This room is adorable! The vintage tray is my favorite part.

  35. BJ, such an inviting bed with all the delicate colors and bedside tables. Don't you just love puffy bedding and luscious pillows? Hope your weekend is fabulous!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Hi BJ. Your bed is so lovely and the tray is fabulous. I love all of your pillows and I know what you mean about a little whimsy in the room. I do the same thing in my home and it has that same effect on me, too. You just can't help but smile.

    I hope you are having a wonderful weekend... :)

  37. Hello my dear sister friend, I too love lots of pillows on my bed. Half the bed is pillows. I changed my bedding and I haven't shared it. You inspired me today. Next PS would be a good day. Smile. I do love all of your pillows but turquoise is not a color I have in my house. I do love the color though.
    Happy PS.
    Love, Jeanne

  38. Love this post bj and what you have created . . .
    I have written two comments and my iPad keeps lcking up. I will explain in an email.

  39. Just beautiful and so comfy and cozy looking! I *have* to have whimsy in my life and in my home ~ makes me happy! I'm in the midst of redoing my bedding so maybe I'll have something to show you this week. :)

    I LOVE your bed tray! So weird that I've always, always wanted one but have never had one. That should be corrected! I'm glad to know you like that pillow that has the arms ~ have wondered if they were comfortable. Have considered that one might help my back.
    Well, seeing these photos I'm ready for a nap!
