Oh WOW...that is looking great... I can't wait to see the finished room.
I am missing you and Petunia galavanting around France.....but I suspect Petunia is in need of a rest and wouldn't have any interest in decorating (although I'm sure the wine might tempt her !!)but I would think that she has more pressing engagements !!!!
Happy decorating and bring on the finished article ASAP. XXXX

This room looks like it's going to be fabulous. I'm redoing my daughter's room right now. We were going to do a French theme, but then she wanted Old Hollywood. So, I'm kind of mixing the two styles and we'll see how it turns out! Wish I had those high ceilings!

claudie said...

My favourite color in the whole world... TIFFANY BLUE.. yes.. MY guess cottage is black accents with TB walls.
Who is the pour soul that had to hand paint that bed? Spray paint would have been too hard I guess?
I had a bed like that and I painted it white... go figure Fifi.
Happy Blue Monday.
When is the big reveal?
Love Claudie
xooox

Diane said...

My wall are, and have been tiffany blue for 4 years... my sofa is lime green and all my trim is white and I love it.
One of the color specialists from Macy's came to my home 4 years ago, saw it and loved it .. he said it is amazing how neutral Tiffany Blue is..
