Reply to Comment on Arwens Room

Dear Elven Friend!

So happy to hear from you...Not sure, your comment should post but its not showing so far hence I will repeat it here for other benefit.

You asked about an elven room but yours is tiny and no real cash flow...You also are interested in a Galadriel style pitcher...

Great questions!

First the pitcher, do you live near any thrift shops or consignmet shops? Can you hit some yard sales? What you want is a silver pitcher like one your grandmother or great grandmother would have used...It may need some polishing up but its worth it. I have one that belonged to my Gram. Look for something taller with nice curvy spout and decorative handle on it. If only my scanner was hooked up would post a photo of mine. You can find a cheap enough pitcher at any of these places mentioned. Or even ask around in the family if anyone has one stored in an attic or box that they don't want to throw out but aren't really using either...Let me know if you succeed. If you don't I could see about trying to find you one here and if you could cover mailing cost then its yours...I have a nose for such things (bargains, etc)

Regarding the room, do you have window? Assuming you do, most rooms now are required in order to be a bedroom. Anyways if you want an Arwen room and are ok with lavender then paint the walls a soft lavender color. Walmart or any paint store offer free paint samples. Pick several you like, tape them to your wall and look at them in different lighting at different times of day and night. When you find the shade your comfortable with get a gallon. I have found that the Walmart brand paint works just as well as the expensive Home Depot paint but you decide. Then again if you are doing my version of the Arwen room buy a quart of a pale silver color. If need be let me know and I'll post the name of the exact silver color I chose. Use this silver for the window trim and all other door/floor trim in the room. You WILL be amazed at the transformation a simple paint job will do. Also definetely recommend some sheer flowy curtains in a white perhaps for you...Walmart has the single long panels for like $5. You would only need two for one window. Get the ones that will hang to the floor and blow in the wind if the window is open. I hope this helps.

If you want MORE decorating details for your room specifically ( I LOVE THIS STUFF) and would be thrilled and honored to assist you (no charge of course)This is what I love to do and love to help people too.

So dear Elven Friend hope this helps you out...If you want more info please comment again...

Sidh iest le mellon!
(I wish you peace friend)
