It’s Pink Saturday again at Cottage Dreamer! Thanks to Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for once more hosting this fun day of sharing all things Pink!

It’s been a busy week. I’ve finally gotten to the point where I realize that if I don’t do it – no one will do my decorating. I did get my son to come over and help a bit last weekend and I hope to be able to get him to help me put up drapes and curtains this weekend.

The first set of photos is of a small vignette that I set up in my kitchen. I used to have a big ole clunky counter top oven in this area – the kind that’s bigger than a toaster oven. I never really used it anymore so decided it was time it could go live somewhere else and if I need it I can dig it out again.

I have a small two cup tea maker that was hiding out in the corner – so I wanted to make it more accessable. There’s also a plate that has a clock in it that my son gave me that I wanted to show off. Then I made a trip to Home Goods and got an adorable small teapot, a tea cup with a lacey saucer, and a small basket with a sweet bird on the handle. In the basket I’ve put a few bags of tea. I thought I had some Constant Comment, but couldn’t find it. Mostly I use loose tea in the teamaker, but didn’t want to put that out in the “display.” And, to keep in the spirit of Pink Saturday one of the quilt placemats I had in another post is making an appearance in its new home.

And now for another of my ongoing projects – my bedroom.

When I remodeled my condo I decided to put my bedroom in the second room and keep the bigger bedroom for what I call my “dayroom.” It has my computer desk, a big lounge chair, and right now way too much “stuff.” So, I have to take one room at a time, and right now it’s my bedroom. I hope to have photos of the third bedroom in a week or so – it’s my craft/sewing/embroidery room.

I purchased this bedding set almost three years ago and finally got it all ironed and ready to go. I do need Dave to help me put up the curtains and valance. I *thought* I’d ordered the quilt but ordered the bedspread – so – under the bedspread is a dust ruffle. I didn’t figure out what a mistake I’d made until we had the dust ruffle on. But, I’m really happy I got the bedspread because of the gathers around the edge. Also, I can now take the dust ruffle off and I’ve got lots of material to make other things – like maybe a few more pillows.

I took a lot more pictures but took them late at night, so will see if I can get some additional ones on Saturday morning. If not, then I will take more before next week. I hope to have more things done in the room – like curtains up (did I say that before?) and maybe even get a picture or two up. I plan to paint the small dresser white. It’s my son’s dresser from when he was a baby, so is kinda special.

I thought you might like to see how the room progresses as I finally get the bedroom I’ve always wanted.

Thank you for stopping by!
