OUR DAY BED IS FINALLY HERE!!

It’s here, it’s finally here! 

I saw this daybed on YHL several months ago.  I even mentioned it in an earlier post.  I fell in love with it’s dark wood, airy frame, and geometric pattern.  I knew it would be the perfect fit in our sunroom, but I wasn’t overly thrilled about the price.  I scoured the internet and furniture stores for something comparable for months.  After Christmas, my loving husband looked at me and said, “why don’t we get that day bed as our Christmas present.” (we typically don’t do Christmas presents for each other) Needless to say, I jumped on that bandwagon real quick and she arrived at our house a few weeks ago!


 
The room is painted a pale yellow and I’ve been seeing lots of beautiful things in a yellow/gray color scheme.  So when I found a yellow and gray quilt at Target, I knew I had to have it.  The quilt looks great and even has a different pattern on the backside (see, on the edges) if I get tired of this one.


 I hope to find a few throw pillows to go along with this and also make one out of a gray sweater dress that I found with a hole in it the last time I tried to wear it.  We’ll see how that project works out!

Another sunroom update would be the addition of this old radio from the house I grew up in. 



It’s probably still functional, but I just like the way it looks!  I think it makes a great accessory to an old home and ties together perfectly with the dark wood of the daybed.
