I think those are the most beautiful curtains I have ever seen! Infact, the whole room is lovely.

Oh le coquin de chien sur le beau fauteuil clair ! Belle lumière en tout cas et j'aime bien aussi les rideaux en soie ?
Bon week-end,
Céline.

Gorgeous! I love the curtains against the colouring of the wall, and the chandelier.

Don't worry about the dog, ours likes to sprawl across the méridienne, and he's not nearly as small and manageable as yours.

This is a beautiful bedroom Sharon! I love the colors in the luxurious, pouffy curtain fabric & how they tie in with the embroidered fabric on the back & sides of the chair. Of course, Ghetto likes the most comfortable seat in the room!

Typical family dog, whatever the nationality, it will always choose the best chair especially when the sun is shining through the window. Sharon, I love your painted floor it looks just right with your beautiful silk curtains. A delightful bedroom. Have a great week end.

Thank you all for your kind comments about the room – just a note on the curtains … a couple of people have emailed me questions: yes, they are silk, and I think the reason they hang like that is because they are lined and interlined. All has to be done by hand, long but worthwhile in my humble opinion. I reckon on several hours sewing per curtain. Makes for warm curtains that hang beautifully.

Your curtains are lovely, they look like Dupioni silk. I learned something new today. I had not heard of interlined. This green has been my new favorite color for a while now. Along with the wall color and the touch of pink, gorgeous… And, I don't know what to tell you about that dog. He does make you smile though. I am glad the sun is shining on you today.

WOW! What a gorgeous chair. I love the shape and the fabric.

I knew that couldn't be Ghetto sitting on it. He would have been on the naughty step instead of having his picture taken.

All of this looks perfect to me. Including the puppy on the chair. Mine would be there too. Yes, those draperies completely send me, and so does all the rest. I can tell you and Trish @ Trouvais have a lot in common. Sending love, Sharon…

Oh my goodness!! This room is STUNNING from A-Z!! I love the floor, rug, chair, curtains, chest, and of course, my darling Ghetto! I love it all!!! I may be behind the times, but I don't think I've seen a chair with the crewel work done on the back like this…it is so good looking as are the curtains! Did you make these curtains? You are so talented that I wouldn't be surprised at all! So glad you got this type rug…timeless!!
Thanks so much for sharing and I know you must be thrilled with the results! Have a nice weekend!

I love gorgeous curtains and admire those silk lined ones you have. Like the weight, drape and the way they fall at the bottom. The perfect room to lazily spend a weekend morning. And Ghetto looks comfy on his lovely perch…:)

Happy weekend!

I love the curtains, and the chair fabric is so beautiful. Just one question though – where do the humans sit? Answer – on the floor of course!

The room is just delightful looking with the sun shining in…a real touch of spring with the lovely tulips. To top it off, you have your cute French dog that obviously loves you good taste in decorating.
