    The splashes of red will be replaced with coral once summer draws near.

    ONE day, I hope to replace the two slipcovered wing chairs with 4 slim, matching accent chairs, circled around the ottoman.

    I love this room. Personally i love the Slip Covered Wingback Chairs. Slipcovers can just totally change up a room. The Buffet/Hutch really caught my eye. Did you paint it yourself? If so do you have a tutorial for it?

    Thanks so much Terry Salach! I agree ... love slipcovers! And, yes, I did paint it ... it used to be Walnut stained, but, then I painted it Anne Sloane's Old White chalk paint. All I did was wipe the piece down ... paint it with the chalk paint (which, doesn't require any priming or sanding before you start painting, in most cases), distress it just a tad and then add one coat of Annie Sloane's clear wax.

    I love the clean crisp, yet warm romantic feel.

    Very Nice!

    Nice, but there's a thin line between serene and boring. It could use just a tiny bit more color. Try adding a coral cover to the pillows when you change over for spring, maybe an extra frame in coral around the white pictures on the white walls, and coral print lamp shades . . . easy but effective..

    Thanks, Carol Davidson, and I truly agree! Like I mentioned in my post above, I do plan on adding pops of coral once Spring arrives (just love blue and coral together!). :)

    I want to do the four chairs around an ottoman or a round table. Love your room.

    Thanks, Kyla Wootton! I hope that you do ... it's such a great configuration. That's what I did in my parents' sunroom when I redecorated it (it's on my page) ... they love it! I hope to find just the right chairs so that I can do it, too!

    I just noticed that my vintage fabric valentines are displayed like yours and in a silver champagne bucket too! Hehe, great minds...

    Love your room Becca!

    I noticed that, too, diy Design Fanatic when I visited your post about your beautiful sentimental hearts that you made! (And, LOL, that's right ... great minds!) I'm surprised my poor branches haven't snapped because of the ornaments that I've hung on there over the last couple of years! Will probably happen soon now that I've said that! LOL
