Decorating On The Prairie: Seeing Red


Decorating On The Prairie Bedding is RED for now.
PILLOWS on the bed add something....but I'm not sure what.
Maybe some character?

 They aren't practical.
Can you believe I said that?




Pillows..........what can i say.  They have a way of taking over.
Quite a few years ago, I wanted to decorate the Master Bedroom in REDS.

Mission accomplished.

Sam's had a Bedroom Assemble In A Bag 
and I fell for it.
Fantastic buy.

Comforter
Bed Skirt
2 European Pillow Shams
2 Standard Size Pillow Shams
 2 Standard Throw Pillows
Rectangular Throw Pillow 
A Neck Pillow
Sheets Set

By the time I make up the bed, 
gather all the throw pillows and place them on the comforter,
I have had my morning work-out.

This is a work out for lil 'ole me that has trouble stretching 
and reaching, but what a great way to get one's exercise.
Making the bed.

 

THANKFUL for a HOME
that has beds and bedding.

I really like electricity and natural gas for heating and cooling.
I love my home with flushing toilets and running water.
I like having a bathtub, washer and dryer, micro-wave, 
fridge and soon to be stove that works in my remodeled Kitchen.
A place to watch television, surf on the web, that has furniture.
A place to visit with family and relax 
or sit in the quiet to think and pray.
My life on the Prairie is a blessing.

My HOME is a blessing.

As for the RED BEDDING...after I washed it, 
the comforter took a nose drive and didn't recover very well. 
 She shrunk and has a well loved look to her.

For now, I'm enjoying seeing RED,
but have plans in the near future to switch to BROWNS, 
ECRU plus WHITE.

I like all the PILLOWS for now.

 So glad you stopped by for a visit!
Hope you're doing well,

Our ceiling is waiting to be textured and painted.  Crown molding will go up.  That will be a happy day for sure.  The Chandy is our $5 TREASURE that my sweet Hubby pieced back together, polished and hung in our Dining room a year ago and then relocated it to our Master Bedroom.  Not sure what color I will paint the walls.  Will post about it when it comes together.



Above the bed hangs framed scripture.
Another THRIFT buy that I cherish.

I cherish my Husband.  He wasn't a THRIFT buy...grins.
Believe that it is important to remember that MARRIAGE  
is an extra special COVENANT 
that God created where two become one.

When looking around the room,
you'll see a little of this and a little of that.

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
