The guest room is the one room in the house where I indulge my femininity.
The color palette is essentially red and blue, but in softer tones.
In January I posted about my 2018 goals and painting the white door was on the list.
In that post,
2018 Goals, I said I was going to use either Louis Blue or Provence,
instead I combined Pure White and Provence
to create my own color.
I found the chalkboard shelf in the attic and kept the decor simple with dried roses in vases and paper flowers on top.
I have been choosing colorful roses lately because they dry so beautifully.
The orange roses in this pic are now dried and they look just as pretty as they do here.
I restyled the shelves in this cabinet using clock faces both real and faux.
I'm debating on replacing the ladder with a chair, but I do like using the ladder as a bookshelf.
I used dried roses and eucalyptus to decorate one of my wire wreaths
and hung it on the tall cabinet next to the bed.

In my post,
Panoply, I showed the cute hankie my friend Rita of the blog
Panoply had sent- it is almost a perfect match with the blue cabinet.
and it looks so cute made into a pillow and sitting on the bed.
I'm happy with the new look in the guest room
from each view.
The best part of the project is that when a holiday comes that calls for a white door, I can just turn the door around.
I can't wait to have Miss Violet visit for two weeks next month - I hope she likes the feminine changes in the guest room.
Although Lulu isn't so excited - Miss Violet happens to be little chihuahua!
