A tranquil monochromatic guest room
at our house received some pink
in anticipation of my niece’s visit,
and here it is today…
nothing at all fancy
or precious or complicated.
The ceramic vase is by amazing artist Rae Dunn.
It reads: JUST GIVE ME TIME TO LEARN TO GROW.
Stripe and floral (Shalini) pillow covers
(some custom) by Annie Selke of Pine Cone Hill.
The geometric lumbar one, Ralph Lauren.
We interrupt this lovley blog post to share a
hilariously alarming Easter photo
featuring my friend’s son Henry!
It was on Ellen’s site and
made Yahoo’s front page today!!!
Wouldn’t you be crying too?
Back to the fluff.
It is unlikely I will run out of old rhinestone
brooches (check my shop!)
to tack on everything anytime in
this millenium.
More Ralph Lauren pillows
and a Japanese flavored striped
kitty found on etsy.
The table and chairs were a birthday gift
for our 20 year old when he was a toddler.
It’s topped with another beachy-happy Annie Selke
designed fabric I love (I think it’s Bipin).
holy lame wrinkles, i need a steamer.
Recognize little Maileg mice from
Splendid Willow
all snug and dreamy
in charming matchboxes?
My niece was charmed.
Hard to dream up a sweeter wee child’s gift
sure to become a future heirloom.
I think I showed you this gift wrap
by Annie Selke…it’s fresh and fabulous,
and the window seat in the room is just right
for quick packaging.
Any fresh updates around your place
with the season’s change?
Peace to you right where you are.

What a fresh and inviting space for your niece to stay! And I must say that easter bunny does look pretty scary, I think I would have cried, too 🙂
That might be the sweetest prettiest freshest guest room ever…she might not ever want to leave!! And those other 'guests" shes sharing the room with, how cute they are. Love it all!
So pretty! Every little detail is just perfectly displayed!
That room is so beautiful! And I'm charmed by those mice too! It is put together so perfectly from the bed to the pillows to the little mice!
I love the colors and patterns you chose for the room- so fresh! The matchbox mice are just too cute, too! Thanks for sharing!
What a wonderful space you created for your niece! Im in love with that white vase, and all the little accessories you added to this room!

Uh, only one question…can I come for a sleepover? I LOVE this space. I would feel sweet 16 all over again, Michelle. Much love, Lisa
Hi lovely,
Your niece digs you a ton! I can feel it all the way to Seattle!
Nice colors you have going there Ms.! I need to add more fun colors here – much too gray…
I am saving a whole bunch of mouse match boxes for the "next generation"! Perhaps we can share our treasures a few (no many!) years from now! (:
Love to you. Expect a call before Easter.
… this comment better go through…

So much delicious eye candy.
I was scared with fright too of that…Easter rabbit. No bunny there. 🙂
Ha ha ha ha… I seriously can't stop laughing right now!! That bunny will be making me laugh for the rest of the day!
Another beautifully decorated room, I love seeing into your home – It's beautiful!
You can tell you decorate from you heart and that's what it's all about! Thank you for the sweetest comment ever yesterday!! I means the world coming from you!
love ya!
Lovely, Michele! Love all the pink touches you added in! I got that same little table and chairs for my granddaughter from my daughter's friend who was having a yard sale. It was the same table they sat at as little girls playing! I need to make a tablecloth for it though; it's wearing a runner I made, which works for now though.
I will just say that I'm in love if you invite me over!!! 🙂
Kidding! I loveeee it…. well, you know me and cottage-y interiors, right?
The mice! The only kind I'm happy to have in my house! 🙂 Matthew loves his mouse! 🙂
