White Bedroom



 Hi Everyone
Happy Wednesday

This is our daughters room in Texas.
She is renting a wonderful old house with 3
friends for her Junior year of College.

 We had one week 
to furnish her room.
Bed, mattress, desk, chairs
everything
The shopping was fast and furious We found this vintage tin top table at the antique mall
We both fell in
{Love}
with the wonderful green patina and the one slightly bowed leg
The house has the most beautiful original hard wood floors
and look at this fun detail
a special spot for the phone
too cute
Old Houses are so interesting!!!

Her room turned out just like her beautiful, fun, feminine and full of
{Love}


Her bed is white fluffy and comfy
There is one small closet for all of her stuff
Really Did they not have clothes in those days?


Here is the cute little Texas house
amazing that the grass is green with 
over 40 days of over 100 degree temperatures

{Love}
the vintage tile in the bathroom


 Here I am a self portrait to show you that
this California girl has been bitten by the Texas bug
I am still wearing my Texas cowgirl boots




Self portraits are difficult
This was my first try with my daughter on the phone giving me instructions
Kids can do this so well
I actually thought I was getting the boots in the picture
and I managed to get the messy closet instead Yikes

I am so happy she is happy and doing great
a part of my heart is still in Texas 
Y"All

  3. Her room is darling in white! Love the desk idea! I lived in South Texas for a while, years ago. It does have an "atmosphere" doesn't it? Would love to go back and visit someday.~Hugs, Patti

Come to think of it, in 2 years my eldest will be applying to college...geez! enough of that random rambling...loving the linen, the desk and everything else!!!

  12. Love your daughter's room, really very cute.
    The table is an enamel table used in the 30's and 40's in the kitchen for counter space.
    Love the way you have used it. I have one in
    the middle of my kitchen and one on my back
    porch. My grandchildren love to do their crafts on my table because nothing hurts it. It is
    wonderful for rolling out pie dough too.
