(country french magazine)
I have been thinking about re-doing my bedroom lately and wanted to change the color on the walls.
Must be all the inspiration I have been finding on some of these blogs I have been visiting!
Right now, my bedroom is painted a yellow- kind of custom because when we got the yellow, it was waaaaay tooo yellow- bright….not mellow and pretty and cheery.
So I kept adding other colors to soften it until something worked. So we have kept it the same since adding the bedroom on- I was just thinking maybe it was time for a change…
I was thinking of several different colors and ideas- I’ll blog about the bedroom soon-
For now, I had to share these~
I went to the store the other day and picked up one of my very favorite magazines-
Country French!
I wait for this magazine!! I LOVE it!!
I also picked up Rooms of Bliss by Victoria Magazine.
These are compilation magazines so I think they only come out a few times a year.
But oh my!! SO worth the wait!
Just when I was putting paint chips on the wall-
look at all the
yellow toned bedrooms I found!!

GORGEOUS!!!!!!
Makes me re-think changing the color!!!
The magazines are gorgeous through-out and have such drool-worthy pictures and homes.
Oh my! LOVE it!

Oh I do know how we all think we need a change every once in a while, however your yellow room is just stunning and it is such a NOW color. Love those books too. I need to treat myself. Hugs, Marty

What beautiful rooms you found! I love soft yellow bedrooms – they can be so calm and romantic. Maybe change everything else and you'll be glad you left the yellow. You have exquisite taste in decorating so I can't wait to see what do end up doing.

Thanks for your comments- I know what you mean about the price- you could buy some books on Amazon for the cost of the magazines! But have you checked Costco or Sams Club? I got Country French there at 30% off the list price- so instead of $9.99- it was around $7.00 and the Rooms to Inspire was even less-around $5.00. Much better price for some inspiration!!! 🙂

I love my other issues of Country French magazine and have been waiting for another one to come out. I am headed to Costco tomorrow!
I love your bedroom and if you ever decide to get rid of the settee you must give me first dibs! Hugs, Sherry

I have never seen a Country French magazine! I will have to look for one. You bedroom is beautiful. I understand after having it one way for a long time, I feel a need to change. Usually it is about 10 years for me!!

I've got to try and find the Country French magazine here in Canada. I do have an older issue but I don't remember where I purchased it. I have a magazine addiction and scour so many stores, looking for the magazines that I see on others' blogs. I'm sure whatever you decide to do with your room – it will be lovely!

Oh, I am so glad yellow is not out; I am planning to do this damask paint treatment in our master bedroom in a similar two-tone yellow.
