Purple and Red || Guest bedroom with an addition

February 11, 2013





I was so excited to add this little colorful canvas from Birdaria to my guest bedroom this weekend.  I won it in a giveaway hosted by one of my favorite interior design blogs, Marcus Design.  I am a lucky girl. (Thanks Nancy and Birdaria!). Trust me I count my blessings every night.  It looks kind of perfect here, don't you agree.  As if it was meant to reside in this corner, no?


So this is my guest bedroom with red, whites, and some purples.  I thought winning this canvas would be the perfect opportunity to give you a peek into the headquarters of my sweet house guests.

If you are wondering about the little dresser sidetable, yes it is an ikea hack.  See my original post on it here.  

In other news...I'm new on Instagram.  Follow me here.

I hope you all have a great start to your weeks.  Ooh and I made this cake this weekend and it was a total hit. Do it!! it will become your new fave treat.

  24. I love red and purple! I did red and purple holiday a few years ago and my Mother's only comment was that it reminded her of the Red Hat Society. NOT the look I was going for. But I still kept it. :-)
