I certainly think it can! I have been sleeping quite peacefully since repainting. I thought I would pop in with some pics of the on going master redo......so you wouldn't think it was a figment of my imagination. With Summer in full swing...I have mostly been working on it at night....and than of course it is too dark to take pics...soooo today I snapped some of what has gotten done. I moved my hall mirror in here..it was silver and I painted it white. I may glaze it.....not sure. As I said a before I moved our big --- Spanish armoire in here too...it fits this space well. I still need to put several more coats on it and glaze it. I got the two major FAUX Roman shades done......luckily we have quite a bit of privacy.....so not in a hurry with the side lights. Today I got
the wall of flowers done......will show more of it later. I ran out of light. I have been hanging pics and sorting thorough what stays and goes...(getting ready for a garage sale)... I have been collecting these old shoe polish brushes LOVE THEIR OLD PATINA YUMMMMMMY.......I came up with this idea to slide a pic into one. That is my grand mother Gardy when she was a wee one. Been enjoying all the little details you put into a room.....that is the fun part! OHHHHHh and as you can see CALVINI WHODINI.....HAS YET AGAIN MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE MY BED! Well there is your proof in the pudding.......hopefully I will share more over the weekend! I am off to watch "Confessions of a Shopalohic". XoXo, cherry

Love the color and all of your pretty things. I am so tired of the color in my master bedroom, but still have a few rooms to paint before that one gets a new color.

I must get back to blogging.......I can't wait to see what you have done to the amoire........

Lovin' everything I'm seein' so far. Can't wait for the grand finale'. : )
Your room is looking wonderful! I would love to see whole shots of it when you are done...Love the white plates and basket on the wall.
What wonderful photos Cherry!
Your room looks great so far- can't wait to see it all finished. Looks like you have a vaulted ceiling, too, which gives me trouble in my own bedroom.
I love this post!~ I am a sucker for vintage photos!
Gorgeous! My favorite picture is the platters and basket w/key!
i love those curtains....and the suitcases...oh, and the old fan...and...it's all great.
i have lots of those old baby photos but have no idea who they are! how nice to have one of your grandma....it's adorable.

The paint color is wonderful and so are your treasures you displayed. I would have never thought about displaying a photo in an old brush. You always have the best ideas. I do use the old flower frogs to display postcards and photos. I love your suitcases and old prints. You still do such "GOOD" work cherry. Have a fantastic weekend.

I do believe that certain colors are good for a bedroom and sleep.. I love the color green. I love all your things in your room and you put it together so beautifully. Love the lampshde, flower pictures.. old brushes.. Great room!
Cherry, I think you and I are on the same kick! I LOVE all of your accents..the mirror, the floral pictures, that brush with the photo (too fabulous!), and your bedding! Perfection!
hugs,
becky
Visiting your blog and seeing the befores and the afters, gives me as much joy as opening one of my favorite new magazines. I do think the color of the room can help determine a good nights sleep. I like the color you chose. I look forward to seeing the finished room...because I like the way you decorate.
Hi, just clicked over from Sweet Cottage Dreams. Love your style! Photos are wonderful!
Dawn
I'm just catching up with you and can I say, I LOVE WHAT YOU'VE BEEN UP TO! Especially the burlap window treatments!
LOVE the makeover! My favorite parts are the straw hats and the fan...the blues....FAB!
Looks great! Is that your entertainment center? If so, I'd love to see a picture of it. I'm trying to find ideas for a new one for our living room.
I love what you've done.. as always. Have a great weekend!
Michelle
Looks beautiful! Can't wait to see more!
I love what you do with a room. Your little touches are just perfect. I love the plates paired with the basket!! I can't wait to see more of the room.
The details are just stunning, as always! Where do I start? The mirror surrounded by the flower prints is perfect, as are the suitcases & fan on top of the armoire. And, I'm loving the brush as a photo stand!!! Every one of your posts is such eye candy.
It's looking very cute. Love your wall of flowers. Mimi
It looks great! I can't wait to see more of the flower wall!

Cherry,
You have been a busy girl! Can I borrow some of that energy and some creativity too? I am going to have to paint something now...
Hugs,
Dena
AHHH!!! I LOVE your room! Especially the curtains on your doors (where did you find that fabric and ribbon??) and the frame/window/suitcase vignette. Beautiful!! Thank you for sharing!
Blessings,
Ginnie Renner

the framed mirror looks great.
My bloggin friend I am loving your room! So if I was rich, I'd pay you to shop for me and come decorate for me. I want to FINISH our Mbedroom so badly, but I just don't seem to have the oomph to do it! And it's driving me nuts! Come visit me and help me! I'll feed you, I'll take you to any thrift store you want to go to. I'll let you sit on my patio and relax and...well...put you to work! LOL I nnnnneeeeeed you! ;o)
Oh my how I LOVE it! So peaceful and perfect!
Happy summer sweetie! Les
I love it! I can't wait to see more! I especially love the key hanging on the basket, and all the old prints of flowers! I saw something in a friend's store yesterday that reminded me of you: http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Wooden-Cherry-Dangle-Pin-Brooch_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ165888QQihZ019QQitemZ290329977826QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVWQQsalenotsupported

Hi Cherry :)
I love love love it all!! I think color really does make a difference in how you sleep. I know it does for me :)
xo,
rue
So pretty! The old prints are wonderful... I also love the architectural detail!!!
Happy day!
Christina :)
Oh, everything just looks amazing and I just love your grouping of old pics,especially the display! Lovely job!
The new paint color looks great. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
Delightful pictures, Cherry! Your new paint color is absolutely dreamy (get it? LOL). Love that fan too!
Cherry....hey! I am on pins and needles waiting to see that armoire!!!!! Can we see it? please...hey...I finally posted...come visit!
Love the buttercream color, the shades, and the little green accent above them.
You've inspired me to repaint my little boy's room a similar shade of green as your boy's room. Maybe he'll sleep even more peacefully?!
So tranquil! I love it! We share a love of baskets, straw hats, and white plates! Also, I have the Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady AND the big bird (a partridge?) sitting next to it (only mine needs to be painted - a project for later!) Thought that was pretty neat, hehe!
I love all of the details you have in your room. Your faux roman shadesare fantastic!!! I instantly fell in love when I saw them. Did you make them? I really like the picture slipped into the brush! I also love your bedding- the yellow floral....would you mind sharing where you got it? I have been looking for something similar for months and haven't been able to find it. May have to make my own. Ugh.
Heather:)
Breathtaking!! Love it all,esp.the shots of the basket with the plates around it,and the painted mirror..your photos are so stunning,they just captivate me!!Hope this finds you well,and thank you so much for coming by,all the best,Chrissy
Ohhow I love your home sweet lady!
I would be so comfy and happy there. It reflects your sweet personality!
Love,
Sue
I have one of those wall hanger/hooks that fold out like an accordian... I have had it stored away just not knowing what to do with it,
Now I know! I love how you hung bags and hats from it.
Your room is looking wonderful! Your little touches are just perfect. I love the plates paired with the basket & Great color...
