what a gorgeous space !! Wow...just wow...I love the wall color.. I am partial to terra cotta family colors. The use of the sq footage that you had is wonderful. You are a great seamstress too !! c

Lovely! The window seat will be a great addition.

Very nice!

Love the color scheme. How did you ever settle on the wall color? It would have taken me forever to get that right! Congrats.

Very nice! Now tell me about that lovley dresser, what style is that? I really like the character of it. Nice closet doors too!

Grr sorry about the typo...Lovely!

Thanks for the nice comments! I know the wall color is a bit out there and it took about a month to decide on it. It's basically the same pumpkin/orange that's found in the duvet fabric, which is called Lyceana Duckegg.

The dresser was my grandmother's and is from the late 1800s as far as I know. It has a marble top, intricate carving, and burl wood of unknown type, maybe mahogany? I refinished it many years ago and have carted it all over the country with me ever since.

There are 2 closets with double doors. The doors match the original doors of the house which are very simple.

Everything is great! I love the wall color. The antique dresser is fabulous!

Well done!

Gorgeous warm and elegant! :)

I would wake up in a great mood every day when greeting by that wonderful color! It's a lovely room.

Lovely!
I'd never get out of that bed, given a proper supply of coffee and books.

Nice job! It's refreshing to see a different and creative color scheme. I like the way you have integrated the antique dresser & the modern headboard in your BR & the linen closet with the modern vanity & lights in the bath. Both are very nice.
We are in the planning stages of our MBA, with a shower similar,in size, to yours .

very nice, it's got a calm and restful vibe i really like.

Great space! I love how roomy, bright, and comfortable it looks.

Love your room! Great wall color!

I'm smiling because when I started this thread there were two other threads that seemed a propos, one about inappropriately-sized windows and the other showing an orange wall and asking what the heck the decorator was thinking? So thanks to everyone who responded so positively to my photos :)

I wish I knew more of the history of my dresser. I believe it originally belonged to my grandmother's mother. I inherited a matching piece that's slightly smaller and has marble as a backsplash as well as on the top. I don't have room for it in my house so it's at my parents'. It needs to be refinished, but this first one took me so long to do that I never got around to refinishing the second.

flowerchild the integration of the different styles was a bit more random than it was planned. We downsized and had to find room where we could for pieces we wanted to keep. With only 2 bedrooms (the 3rd is an office) we didn't have room for too many dressers, so one ended up in a closet! And the linen tower was purchased for the master bathroom in our previous house and matched the vanities there.

I snapped some additional pics of the vanity.

I think this is the original hardware.
