The month of November is always a short month it seems to me. I am busy sewing for everyone that wants their treatments before the holidays, cutting out a full week of actual workroom production to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with my family. I have many customers who are patient, fun to be with and excited about their new purchases for their home.
These photos are from one of my most favorite clients, Pat M. She always has fun ideas and is so willing to let me do my thing. Her girls recently moved from sharing a guest room to having their own rooms personalized just for their personalities. They are darling girls and the joy of their parents' hearts.
Alicia is an accomplished horseman, riding, competing and as you can see--winning. Her room has a very feminine equestrian theme with custom painted walls that gives room to display her ribbons as they abound. Pink and brown stripes around the upper edge of the bedroom, with polka dots scattered in her private bath. Shower curtain and matching towels complete her area. The cornice added the finishing touches giving her ribbons another place to be displayed.
Jessica's room has pale yellow walls with polka dots and squiggles all over. The pillows on her bed have an embroidered letter on each one that spell her name. Her mother told me that she does not like to make the bed--so I thought perhaps it would be more fun to make if you got to spell you name every day. That thinking worked her mother told me later. She immediately made her bed. Hurray for Jessica. Now I wonder how to get my son to take out the trash. Hmmm.
Her bathroom has a matching shower curtain and stripes painted around the mirror above the sink. The attention to detail was great fun and pulls the rooms together. She loves her room. The matching padded headboard is nice to lean against while reading in bed. She has a cornice covered in coordinating fabric
and straight side panels.
The girls were so happy with their rooms they called me and thanked me personally. No wonder I like what I do. It is so much fun and so rewarding.
Hope you find a whole bunch of things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Enjoy your family, food and time together. Life is good. I am continually thankful for all He has provided. Take time to thank Him for all your blessings and provisions.
Happy Thanksgiving.
