I've spent a lovely day with my eldest son, my mum and three little dogs. Unfortunately my Mum had the sad news last week that her companion of 14 years has also been diagnosed with cancer, an inoperable brain tumour. We wanted to try to cheer mum up so we took three little visitors with us, my sons little Chihuahua, Africa, her pup Lily and lily's dad, Rusty to visit. Mum adores all animals and was thrilled to have the three little dogs clambering over her for attention. Unfortunately I did my usual trick of forgetting my camera so didn't get a photo but if you take a look "here" you will see these three gorgeous little dogs. We finished the day by taking mum for a manicure and pedicure to take her mind off things and spoilt her a bit. I spoilt myself too opting for a manicure for myself as I rarely get "me" time these days.
Today I am sharing some more lovely bedrooms as it's getting closer to my own bedroom makeover which will be posted in just over a week and bedroom posts seem to be so popular. These gorgeous rooms below are all white, fresh, crisp and inviting!
The rustic beams and stone wall add wonderful texture to this bedroom. Simple white linen and clever drapery above the bed complete the look - Image google unknown
I love the innovative idea of the small painted trunks as a bedside table - Image via Pinterest/elements of style blog
White on white. What a wonderful deep mattress this bed has, a bit like the story "The Princess and the Pea"

Oh, dear, sorry to hear about what your mother is going through. So nice of you to cheer her up!
ReplyDeleteYou have a lovely blog, Lee, the images you choose to post are gorgeous, and these white rooms are a dream!
And I love it that you like the Argentine tango! I'm Argentine myself (though living in Peru at the moment) and any reference to my country brings back fond memories.
Hope you are having a happy weekend!
Thank you so much Kifus for your caring words about my mum.
ReplyDeleteI try to select really special pictures for my readers and hopefully they will be inspired. I love the all white look and if I lived in a warmer climate I would have my whole house white on white.
Gosh your from Argentina, wow! I plan to go to Buenos Aires in the not too distant future for Tango.
I think the Argentine Rugby Team gave the All Blacks a run for their money at the Rugby World Cup knock out game last night! At half time the scores were quite close, but NZ did go on to win. I am not a rugby fan but its a HUGELY popular in New Zealand.
