The master bedroom is finally coming together. It

The master bedroom is finally coming together.
It’s a challenge to decorate a temporary space, but adding a few favorite things makes it seem more like home.

The French chairs are only 20 years old but they’ve seen two upholstery changes, with the most recent being this pale blue and cream buffalo check.

I hung a pair of miniature oil paintings that I painted for hubby for a wedding gift many years ago! I reframed them in gilded wood frames for an updated look.

And I topped the antique French armoire with the old French champagne crate filled with dried moss and flowers. The carved wood goose was a gift from hubby right after we were married.

The room is coming along but is always evolving, as I’m sure you understand!

Miss RubyLou is ready to start her day! She loves sitting in one of the Louis XV chairs every morning and survey “her kingdom”! I bought a pair of those antique French chairs about 8 years ago from a fabulous antique store in Mobile, AL @oldemobileantiquesgallery .

They are some of my very favorite pieces with carved gilt wood and burlap upholstery.
For years, they sat at each end of my dining room table but I’m loving how they look in the living room.

A friend of mine that has collected beautiful antiques for decades, has decided to sell some of his collections.
I was able to acquire two pieces from him that I adore! One is the Italian sunburst mirror on the mantel....can you see it behind the metal wreaths? I actually bought two of them from him and this is the smaller one.
The other treasure is the miniature Louis XVI French chair, which must have been a salesman’s sample.
This little chair has now triggered me into being obsessed with French children’s chairs! Ha! Just what I need! A new obsession!

French and English ironstone with typography makes my heart sing!
My French Estanier cabinet is filled with it, and every time I find a new piece, I have to re-arrange the cabinet!

Everything in this space was found at various estate sales, flea markets, and auctions. All except the boxwood wreaths...I did purchase those new! Do you love shopping second hand or do you only buy new?

The light was gorgeous this morning, especially after the gloom of the tropical storm yesterday.

This morning, the light hit this vignette perfectly, reflecting the beautiful century old gold leaf in the ancient church board.

The bust of Mary is a very storied piece, and unfortunately I wrote the latest chapter of her story when I dropped her and she shattered into a hundred pieces! .
I’m thankful that I have a talented artisan brother in law that meticulously put her back together! It took him months to accomplish, but she looks amazing! One would never know she had been broken! Feeling grateful!
