Vintage Inspired Guest Room

An old brass bed Mum and Dad gave to me.
 Thrifted pillowcases, some vintage, some Sheriden.
I found the vintage rose chenille bedspread in New Zealand.
A small cushion I made from piece of vintage rose fabric.






Do you remember my post on my market finds last Sunday? Well here they are - some of them anyway!  Placed on my vintage inspired wall in the guest room.









Brighten up the room with a bunch of fresh cottage flowers from the garden.





Welcome to my sister Diann, who will be the first to stay in this room.
I hope she likes it and feels at home!


(Don't forget to enter my handmade giveaway. It closes tomorrow)

Hi, sorry it's been a while since I commented. Just loved catching up - you have some great vintage finds.
I know what you mean about time for blogging - lately I have been feeling the same way - it's hard to fit everything in these days. Michelle
