La chambre à coucher

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder......

On entering the bedroom through a pair of amazing 18th century painted doors, La Madone continues to surprise. The room is furnished simply in the same calm shades.

The heavy silk drapery fabric, which also covers the dressing table bench, is a vintage print of tiny rosebuds and stripes...................


.......a tall cream armoire for our clothes is embellished with an interesting carving.

The 'headboard' for a most comfortable bed is made from old shutters painted dusky blue. They also form the wall for the bathroom area behind. The charming oil painting of the basket of roses contains all the soft colors of the room. Freshly ironed bed coverings of vintage linen with monogrammed cotton pillowcases.

Mini crystal chandeliers with linen covered cords hang over the matching marble topped nightstands.

In the bathroom area the tiny windows were covered with simple linen curtains as were the shower and storage area curtains.
The black tiled shower with river rock floor was the only modern tweak in the apartment. Double sinks with antique mirrors and good lighting was a plus.

And.............where did we enjoy a typically French breakfast after a great night's sleep? I'll show you next time.
