My Favorite Room

We have two guestrooms in our humble abode, but the "blue bedroom" is definitely my favorite. One main reason is that we hardly ever go in there, so it is almost always clean. Plus it has some special furniture pieces. First the bed is from the Hubby's great-grandmother, Goog, who is the original owner of my engagement diamond. It is a beautiful old brass bed. And is just perfect in my eyes.

Here is a picture from when we first moved in (this was taken in March 2009):

This is a more recent photo taken right before we had overnight guests come (hence the towels and bath supplies). In this photo you can see the amazing table that I use as a night stand for the extra high bed. My baby brother made this table as a wedding gift for me and the hubby. Casey is a super talented artist whose primary medium is wood. And he built this table inspired by my favorite piece of art in the house. It is super special and I love him for this gift.

Lately my brother has been working on wooden surfboards. Click here to learn more about his company and amazing, functional art.

Oh Christmas Tree

We have a very patriotic Christmas tree. I have been collecting the White House ornaments (and other congressional type ornaments) for a few years. So it is all about the red, white and blue. Blue lights, white snow flakes and primarily red ornaments and accessories. We also moved the tree this year so that it is in the front window. So here is the tree and holiday tablescape.

Please ignore the blinding light of the chandelier, I took this at night with the iphone...I know not the most professional. Anyway, Happy Holidays!

Electric Glow of Sex

Nothing says Christmas like "the electric glow of sex." The Hubby got these cute leg lamp lights last year for Christmas, so I am excited to add them to the Holiday decor for 2010.
