Hello Dear Ones!! We've been redoing the bedroom ~ painting and changing the colors, curtains, and pillows. Blues and browns. I'm not quite finished with the decorating but I couldn't wait to show you some of my pillows!
This is a really pretty shade of blue, looks kinda gray here, but trust me! :)
Pillows on the bed...
See? I told you I was still being Shabby! I've made a new pillow with Shabby Roses! Isn't it pretty?
I made the pillow to sit in this little rocking chair with my little sea shell throw.
I made four rows of ruffles and then three shabby roses! She's so pretty, isn't she? I don't mean to be bragging on myself ~ but she is just so lovely! :)
More pillows! Now I'm didn't make these two pillows. I didn't want you to think I was this wonderful! I could have lied and told you I made them, but no, no Nannette, I wouldn't do that! :) I popped into TJMaxx and was looking at pillows and found these! The fabric is almost the same color as my shabby pillow! So I had to have them. The pattern on the front is so pretty the way the fabric is turned and sewn! The binding is a dark chocolate brown. Oh, they're pretty! Then...
I turned around and saw these! Perfect! The same blue and chocolate brown!! There were two of these!Then...
From the same fabric as my shabby rose pillow, I made this little long pillow. Actually the fabric I used for the pillows is from my curtains that I'll show you later, and the border was there and so it made for a perfect longie pillow.
Well, shoot! Do I keep my shabby rose pillow on the little chair or on my bed? I'm kinda loving my shabby rose pillow on the bed! I love this! Can you love little shabby rose pillows on the bed? Well, you bet your sweet dreams you can!! :)So...
I guess for now I'll leave my little shabby rose pillow on my bed! I did good, didn't I? :) You know I'm just teasing, but this time I think I really mean it too! :) My so bad! :)

ReplyDeleteAll of the pillows are so pretty! You did a fabulous job on the pillow you made and finding all the pillows to blend in. Such sophisticated colors ... I'm not sure if shabby is the right description. Totally Gorgeous is the best description.
ReplyDeleteSheila, I love all your pillowey goodness. Can't wait to see the whole room!
ReplyDeleteDEAR SHEILA,
ReplyDeleteTHE PILLOWS YOU MADE AND ESPECIALLY THE ROSE PILLOW ARE STUNNING...STUNNING. YOU DO NEED TO PAT YOURSELF ON THE BACK.
THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY EXCEPT YOU SHOULD GO INTO THE PILLOW MAKING BUSINESS.
I'LL TAKE A PURPLE ONE WITH LAVENDAR AND PURPLE ROSES...LOL
HAVE A HAPPY SUNDAY...I WILL BE DREAMING ABOUT THAT PILLOW

Oh my word Shelia, your pillows are just fabulous. I absolutely love the beautiful one with the roses and ruffles. So pretty. You did such a wonderful job. Gorgeous. I really like the long one too. It is gorgeous with the beautiful embroidery. Don't you just love to have some new pillows and feel like everything is all new and fresh. Stunning. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteIt does look fantastic on the bed! You did a great job, Shelia!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Sheeeeeeeeeeeelia!!!! That pillow is gorgeous and I'd love to make one for me, but truly I just don't know where I'd put it, sugar. Great job on matching the pillows though.
ReplyDeletexoxo,
Connie
I am a collector of pillow and so many of mine look so much like yours...and shabby is always in here. Trying to do a little blog catch up today...I have missed my blogging buddies the last ten days...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautifully shabby. And what a gorgeous colour too. You did good.
ReplyDeleteSheila, these are absolutely dreamy.... just gorgeous.. I'm anxiously awaiting the rest of the room.. would love to know how you made the roses.... hugs ~lynne~
ReplyDeleteVery pretty combination so far Miss Shelia. :) I love the rosey pillow the best.
ReplyDeleteSheila! LOVE the pillow you made, you should be braggin' on yourself!!! Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteAw,Sheila,
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty! They put mine to shame! Seems the pillow bug is going around bloggyville. Love the ruffles and the pretty colors! Can't wait to see the big reveal!
HAGD,
Cindy
Soo precious! I LOVE the pillow! You did a wonderful job on it. I am loving the little roses. I've seen this technique all over the place now, and I am going to have to try it! Hope you have a great night. I'm sure I'll "see" you tomorrow, or later this week. Love to you!
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought to put gray and brown together, but it looks fantastic. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteAre you taking orders?? I love, love, love that rose pillow...and the long skinny one is gorgeous too! Great job girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteHi Shelia
ReplyDeleteWhat fun changing the colours and adding beautiful pillows like that also. They are all lovely and I especially love the roses pillow you made. That is very darling...and you did a fabulous job too. How creative....just what I've been thinking about too...
I hope you've had a lovely weekend Shelia and enjoying great weather too. Hope your mom is doing well...and that little grandbaby girl must be getting big.
*hugs*
Judi
Dearest Shelia, You go GirlFriend!!!
ReplyDeleteSweeeeeeeet.
You did do good and think it's great what you did.
I saw some towels at Target and I called them grey...my hubby was quick to tell me they were silver....the tag said so. Okay!
I liked them and am thinking my taste are evolving into something I'm not sure of! Ha.
I think your blue and brown is lovely.
God bless,

Sheila,
ReplyDeleteThose pillows are great! The colors are wonderful. Great job!
Robin
Sheila...you did such a lovely job! These colors are just beautiful together.
ReplyDeleteLuLu♥
Oh, gosh, Sheila! You're so talented! You must have the patience of Job. Ruffles are not easy. And roses...well, that requires great skill. This bedroom is going to be so stunning. I can't wait to see the rest of it. I'm with Ceekay - are you taking orders?
ReplyDeleteYour pillows look soooo great together! Your rose pillow is fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pillows. Very chic. Valerie
ReplyDeleteLove your new colour combination and pillows - especially the one with the roses.
ReplyDeleteI am in love with your sweet ruffley shabby rose pillow, Shelia. It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI have to tell you, for some weird reason, I was turning that pillow vertically in my head and visualizing what a cute skirt those roses and ruffles would make too. LOL. If only it were a little bigger... Okay, it would have to be A LOT bigger to fit me. ;)
Love your rose pillow! Awesome work!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful pillow! I love the ruffles and throw in some fleurs and divinity! Great job and awesome finds on the others!
ReplyDeleteI think you are very clever to make the pillow, would love the pattern for the roses. Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWOW those are some gorgeous pillows!! You did a FABULOUS job on the shabby roses and ruffles....LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pillows, I love the combination of colors!
ReplyDeleteLove the grey and brown mix..I know you said blue but in the photos the grey shows!Love the frills and roses added...a very nice collection of pillows!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with the color combination. Beautiful job on your pillow. I can't wait to see the rest of the room. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSandy
I love the colors. The silver/gray is gorgeous. I love the rose pillow. I hope you don't mind if I copy it! Lisa~
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous Sheila! You are asking me, where I come up with my ideas???? I ask the same of you....I really love the colors...very classy looking.
ReplyDeleteShelia they are so pretty! I adore the pretty colors and the roses. Great job! :)

ReplyDeleteHi Sheila, your pillows are stunning. Beverly called me and was drooling over the roses and ruffles. Me too Sheila. You did good and have bragging rights absolutely. I love the long one too. Your bed looks gorgeous all dressed up. Is this what you were making when you sent me a comment about the hutch I want to put fabric on?
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I missed your pink Saturday post. I am still catching up though. I am leaving a comment there in a minute.
Hugs, Jeanne
This is so cute.I would love for you to visit my blog. I am also hosting a giveaway from CSN stores for a chance to win a $40 dollar gift card.
ReplyDeleteSheila, I'm beyond impressed, I think I'm feeling a bit of envy! That pillow is just gorgeous! Maybe you will have to make another one for the chair? Love blue and brown, too. Can't wait to see the finished room.
ReplyDeleteYour new pillow is just gorgeous! I'm so in love with ruffles right now and I love the shabby roses too. Your bed looks just fabulous!

How lucky was that? Can't wait to see the finished room. So...when are you going to start designing for a living? You belong on DesignStar on HGTV!...seriously....think about it?:)

ReplyDeleteHard to believe that Deborah Harry (Blondie) is now in her sixties and her music career is still going strong.
BTW I just realized that I am confusing Deborah Harry with Annie Lennox. :-)
