It belongs to an elderly gentleman at our church that's been a lifelong family friend, even of my parents. It was his quilt when he was a little boy. He slept under it at his aunt's house. :-) Hope you have a wonderful time at the Cottage!Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659968511488397366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201144666881866355.post-2884660038564435152013-03-30T22:07:45.469-07:002013-03-30T22:07:45.469-07:00What a sweet shelf.

Often my husband will tell that something looks great and I'll say there's something off it just doesn't feel right (and he'll look at me like I'm crazy). Then I'll move things around and he'll be amazed that it looks better LOL!<br /><br />The quilt and pillow do have the same colors - very pretty. Your gallery wall looks great. I like the trays that you hung. My first thought is that the little picture and the little shelf need to be moved - not sure where. But I'm sure you'll come up with something fantastic!Manuela@A Cultivated Nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282273791971364124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201144666881866355.post-78352626287676147762013-03-29T13:02:01.651-07:002013-03-29T13:02:01.651-07:00It's always fun to change things up.

Maybe move the little shelf underneath instead? Of course, if you're like me, there may not be another good place for it. :-)<br />Happy Easter,<br />Mary Alicechateau chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11861535167732654354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201144666881866355.post-19249569365143432602013-03-29T08:38:17.051-07:002013-03-29T08:38:17.051-07:00I am loving the gallery wall in your dining area! ...I am loving the gallery wall in your dining area! It's very simple and sweet and perfectly balanced. I think the trays added to the other gallery look fine, but I know how we "know" when something isn't working. You'll know after you pass by it enough.<br /><br />The quilt and pillow do go well with each other and the shelf looks fantastic!<br /><br />Hope you have a great day and can't wait to see those curtains! :)<br /><br />XO,<br />JaneBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201144666881866355.post-7043875527280561992013-03-29T01:02:37.674-07:002013-03-29T01:02:37.674-07:00Hi Melanie!

Your house is looking very serene and welcoming. I love the quilt on your bed.<br /><br />We are supposed to be getting a little snow up in the woods at Cranberry Cottage. We leave this morning to enjoy Easter there. It is very cold here with a biting hard wind. Glad to hear your weather might finally start to turn to spring.<br /><br />Have a very Happy Easter weekend!<br /><br />Hugs from Holland ~<br />HeidiHeidi's Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00150536686843662052noreply@blogger.com
