I am a Victorian Soul, who lives in a small townhouse that was built in the mid 1970's, not a huge Mega Mansion!! I just recently lost my Hubby Joe, who was a Retired Letter Carrier. I worked night shift as an RN on a Hospital based Rehabilitation( Physical Medicine) Unit for 37 years before I had Knee Replacement Surgery and officially Retired in 2019 after 41 years working in Direct Patient Care ... I am so glad that we retired at 62 years of age and got to spend that time together before he passed....I still do love Retirement!!!!

I DABBLE IN A BIT OF THIS AND THAT!!!!

Guest Room Update, Part 4

Today I am going to share the final part of my tour of my Guest Room Update, Part 4!

But first, I want to thank Dorene, over at Seasonal Chapters, for mentioning my Blog in her post, More Fabric Pumpkins , where she shares more of the fabric pumpkins that she has made this season including her take on the Toilet Paper Pumpkins that I shared!!
Thanks so much, Dorene!!

And I also want to Thank Jillian, over at Bella Rosa Antiques, for featuring my post from my Christmas Blog, I've Got a Secret: October Rudolph Day, from last week's Let's Talk Vintage Party!!
 Thanks so much, Jillian!!

I also want to Thank Susan, who featured the same post from my Christmas Blog, on her Christmas Blog, Susie's Christmas Cottage, in her post, Tea in the Craft Room #4!
 Thanks again, Susan!!

Please stop by and say Hello to Dorene and Susan and link up to Jillian's great party!


Now back to the Guest Room.........
   I started this Series on my Guest Room back in August.......

As I mentioned in Part 1, I recently re-arranged this room............AGAIN!!

Click HERE to see Part 1 if you missed it.......
   Click HERE to see Part 2 if you missed it.......
Click HERE if you missed Part 3........

  It seems like I am always re-doing this room.........
   I think this time, except for having to paint a few furniture pieces next Spring, I finally have this room the way I want it.....
  We last left off here.......
 In this corner........
 With Minerva!!
Let me first explain the bird cage on the floor.......

I intended to have Joe put  hook in the ceiling in front of the window but that has not happened yet........
So the Bird Cage has gone back into storage........

Minerva used to live downstairs in the Living Room but now she is right at home in the Guest Room.....
 She is wearing a lovely hat.....
 The  bodice on her beautiful lace dress.......
She is carrying 2 fans........

One white lace and one yellow with pretty flowers on it......
She is carrying white lace gloves with a flower cameo pin on them.....
And she had her purse , which was made by a very dear friend of mine who lost her 25 year battle against breast cancer a few years ago......
I think she is right at home here in the Guest Room......
And now over to my fake fireplace.......
If you are interested in the story of this strange piece of furniture, please click HERE......
My fake "Mantle".......
If you would like to read the post on how I decorated the "mantle", please click HERE......
Now to the fake "Hearth"...........
Another pretty item made by my friend who passed away......
I placed a "Mirror Window" and a lamp inside........
Florals with battery operated lights.......
A Bear Tea Party!!
Mr. Bear.......
A Mini Tea Set that actually is in the same pattern as a set of china that I have!
Mrs. Bear........
And all lit up in the Evening......
A vintage plate hung on the wall......
And the Christening Gown worn by my Husband and my 2 sons!!
It is 61 years old now........

And that concludes the Tour of my updated Guest Room.......
 Besides having to paint a few pieces of furniture, I think it is now the way I want it!!

Maybe!!

I will let you in on a Secret........

This Room is now already decorated for Christmas.....
   Soon I will be sharing how The Guest Room is decorated for Christmas over on my Christmas Blog!!

I have started to do my Christmas posts over at A Debbie-Dabble Christmas so I hope you will "Follow" me over there too!!

I will be posting links to those Christmas posts here on this blog too!!

So I hope you will come by and visit  again!!

And thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

If you do not have a blog, PLEASE  give me some way to reply to your comment, maybe by including your email in your comment.  If I can not find a way to reach you, I will reply on the post where you commented so please check back......

Hugs,
Debbie
