Going with a bit of a different color for me too.

It's all they needed to make them just a tiny bit more special. I love the new look, it's softer, quieter and more serene, which is what you want in a bedroom, right? I remember reading about your mother's beautiful cedar chest and it looks just perfect here. A very charming change!<br /><br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434601505681405514.post-37461192433095958322013-08-08T09:12:44.470-07:002013-08-08T09:12:44.470-07:00It's always fun to change things up every now ...It's always fun to change things up every now and then.
