Souvenirs from our trip last month to New York and Pennsylvania sparked a refreshed look for our bedroom. It started with a new quilt. This quilt was hand appliqued and hand quilted and embroidered accents are also done by hand. The quality of that stitching made it well worth the price we paid. Jim fell in love with the look and the rich colors.
This close up shows the beauty of the fabrics used. The fabric on the right side of the picture below is rich looking in brown and gold. There is a metallic gold line that outlines the flowers. I know some might not like them, but I think even the black hearts are pretty.
The gold metallic accents on the quilt lead me to choose curtains that had a touch of gold in them. Up close the gold really shows but at a distance it is hinted at. These curtains and the rods they are hung on were bought on Amazon. We used adhesive rods this time and so far, they are staying up just fine.
The next picture is an Amazon find too. I like art work with birds in it. The birds, the colors and the gold accents helped me choose this 3 piece wall art for above the bed. The birds look like chickadees to me, what do you think?
The last piece of art we bought in New York City. We bought it from a spray paint street artist on 7th Ave. He was finishing this up as we were walking by, and we had to be careful with carrying it while we finished our day in the city and our trip back to our hotel in New Jersey. He seemed to put a shooting star in most of the city scenes he painted. You can see ours in the upper right. I wish I could say I know the artist's name, but I don't, and the signature is hard to make out.
There you have it. A refreshed bedroom that will always remind us of a wonderful trip.
Back with more again soon.
Take care and stay cozy!
