Sweet Dreams


Hello there!
Who would have thought that: the room is almost finished :-) But first, some of you made compliments for the wallpaper. It is "Rose Floral - cream (WAL 0894) and I bought it from artofmini.com. When you look through their wallpapers section, you will find this paper on page 10.
Sunday I had unexpectedly some time for my own and I used it for painting. I did a lot of drawings when I was in my teenage days but nothing of that kind within the last 20 years (pffffff...!!!) but then it was so much fun to paint the "art" for my mini-bedroom by myself! I guess, I will make some more :-)
It is above on the left side.


From a little distance it looks really good :-)))))
But that was not all. Ilona encouraged me to paint the floor white and I did it. I also glued the same wallpaper behind the open door and made a dish shelf for the wall, so that it´s not complete empty but leaves some room for the dollhouse people to move (but only if they are size 0).
For the ceiling I used strips of thin cardboard that I painted and then just some wooden strips from the craft store as timbers.


In the evening...


And at daylight:


Some more decoration is needed, but it is already quite cozy, isn´t it?  Maybe I should tell
my wonderful husband that this is the look I want for our bedroom ...haha!
Is the style of your dollhouse similar to your real home? That would be interesting to know!

Have a wonderful week!
Sandra

  1. Yes, Sandra, your bedroom looks very cozy and beautiful!♥ I would sleep there very well.
    - I don't yet have style in my dollhouse but it will be certainly different than in my real one.
    Sandra, doesn't your hubby like roses and laces, pink sheets and cozy cushions?
    I thought that ALL husbands in the world love them. ;D

  2. You really should pursue your painting. :-) This one is lovely. Hands are very difficult to draw and paint and you have done a great job doing them.

    The bedroom is such a wonderful cozy place. I love the wallpaper and that great ceiling. I always love to see a door that leads to a hallway or gives you a peek at another room. It adds so much interest.

  3. what a beautiful little painting! I love it! This room is really so cozy looking and there is so much detail- very beautiful! My real home is nothing like any of my dollhouses. My real home is a mixture of things that make me happy so it's kind of a jumble of styles :)

  4. Liebe Sandra, dein schlafzimmer ist sooo gemütlich un wunderschön geworden, es sieht aus wie in dem buch von Lea:)
    Mein göga wurde eine krise kriegen wenn er in ein schlafzimmer wie in Rose Cottage schlafen müßte, oder kochen in so eine kleine "süße" küche :)
    Dein kommentar hat mich richtig zum lachen gebracht "kannst Du nicht nochmal umstellen oder so, damit es mehr Fotos gibt? "
    Ich weis nicht wo du wohnst, aber du kannst gerne mal vorbei kommen und es dir anschauen :):)
    Noch einen schönen abend.

    Viele liebe grüße Mieke

  5. WOW, that painting, Sandra!!!!!!!! Stunning, I really love it! Please, paint some more of these treasures, it is a master piece, I mean it seriously. Over here in Holland is still waiting a painting for you, do you remember ;)? Can I send it to you now or....?
    The bedroom looks like a beautiful dream. I think my husband doesn't care in what kind of bedroom he sleeps. Probably he would say: it is dark at night and I see anything then :D!!
    The floor has the right color now, I think? It was an advice, dear friend, you shouldn't do it immediately :D
    Do I see Hausschuhe on the floor, or am I wrong?
    The whole room is cosy, romantic and very beautiful, my compliments, Sandra.
    Warm hugs, Ilona

  9. Hello Sandra, you really take me by surprise; I didn't know you paint so well! The portret is very good. Yes, please make some more miniature paintings and show them to us. The room you made is lovely to look at. Hug, Liduina

  10. I have to compliment you on your painting, Sandra. Ilona is right, you must paint more. That painting should be hung facing the opening so that everyone can see it! It's gorgeous!

  11. It's so cozy, romantic and elegant, I love your bedroom. My-our bedroom in 1-1 resembles not at all what I have done in the 1-12 where I sleep every night is a little hotel-like cold. I wish no different, think of having to keep it clean in the beautiful and detailed rooms we do. So there would be no time for minis.
    Interesting to see the color difference between night and day. Very well done. Keep up the good job painting.

    Hugs
    Wyrna

  17. Birgit musste ja breit grinsen von wegen als Teenager viel gemalt aber seit 20 Jahren nicht mehr... *höhö* Das könnte bei ihr auch stehen... ;O) Aber zur Sache: Es war ein toller Einfall, dass Du selbst zum Pinsel gegriffen hast, insbesondere für das beeindruckende Porträt, aber auch für den Fußboden, der nun viel besser zu dem ganzen Raum passt. All die wunderbaren Einfälle, die Du dort eingestreut hast, sei es die Decke, der Spickblick in den Nebenraum passen wunderbar zusammen und schaffen einen tollen Raum mit viel Atmosphäre. Und wenn Du so was auch in 1:1 haben möchtest, dannn sag' Deinem Mann, er soll die Augen zu machen... ;O)

    Liebe Grüße
    Flutterby und Birgit

  20. Hallo Sandra,
    dein wieder renoviertes Zimmer ist erneut super geworden.
    Bin gespannt, ob es nun das letzte mal war !!!
    Die Koffer sind so toll geworden, solltest mal Details zeigen, denn die sind einfach nur wunderschön, wie auch die vielen anderen Teile z.B. auf der Kommode. Dann dein
    Bild wirkt auf mich sehr romantisch und du solltest unbedingt mehr malen !!
    Liebe Grüße

  23. Hello Sandra! Your bedroom looks so beautiful. The painting looks wonderful in the frame. A good idea to make the fake passage, it looks more realistic than rooms off rooms. Your work is always such a high standard. XX

  26. Hello Sandra! You do some incredibly lovely work and I agree that your painting skills are a real gift I love how you have worked the bedroom ceiling and also the little suggestion of a room beyond the bedroom. Very feminine and very pretty! Everything just right!

  29. Good day Sandra,
    Thank you so much for coming over to sit on the front porch with me.. So happy you enjoyed my roses and Lilacs.
    I planted them about three years ago, so I think they are doing quite well. Don't you think? The scent when you open the front door is just wonderful.. Today it is a little cool for here, it is about 67.. Last week it was a sunny 78 all week..
    Wishing you a wonderful day.
    fondly,
    Penny

  34. Hallo Sandra,

    mir gefällt Deine Zimmerdecke aus Karton super gut.
    Hast Du für den Fußboden auch Karton benutzt?
    Ich habe für mein franz. Haus einen fertigen
    Fußboden gekauft, der mir aber gar nicht gefällt.
    Jetzt bin ich am überlegen einen Kartonfußboden
    anzufertigen.
    viele liebe Grüße
    Sonja

    1. Hallo Sonja! Der Fußboden ist ein ziemlich dunkler Holzboden, den ich nur überstrichen habe. In den anderen Zimmer will ich aber auch probieren, den Boden aus Karton zu machen - ich arbeite nicht so gerne mit Holz. Ich bin schon gespannt, wie Dein Kartonboden wird!
      Liebe Grüsse, Sandra
