I always have mine custom made, so that they are level with the matress of the bed, and light switches within immediate reach. Excellent work, and so interesting to see it. Your colleague does a great job hanging pictures, a function I take a great deal of interest in. Done incorrectly it can destroy a room.columnisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764365428633038329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4390485471778959088.post-87329370617379262652011-02-25T11:03:32.932-06:002011-02-25T11:03:32.932-06:00So lovely!!

It looks classic and restful and reminds me a little of one of my favourite rooms, a bedroom in Hubert de Givenchy's country chateau. Upholstered Louis XVI headboards always make me think of elegant French hotels like the Plaza Athenee or George V, and they are so comfortable. One never tires of classic furniture like this, and it is environmentally sound because unlike so many trendy, edgy designs, it will never look passe so it won't be necessary to replace it.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog.<br />SwFSquare With Flairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10587474304650348836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4390485471778959088.post-43719075417363726292011-02-22T13:10:36.561-06:002011-02-22T13:10:36.561-06:00Beautiful rooms!

Also not pictured this time is the Sitting Room that can just be glimpsed through the opening of the Family Room; it is another favorite space in this house. Only the four pictures shown in this post appear in this special issue of "Southern Accents". But I will show the other rooms and more in a future post.John J.
