At last I will show you the progressive story of my showhouse room.
At the 2006 showhouse I did the Master Bedroom. It became a setting in my showroom. Last summer it was sold. Needing a replacement, I went through the empty house looking for a bedroom to decorate. After I selected the one I wanted, I took before pictures.
These pictures were helpful in developing my proposal for the selection committee. I submitted two different designs for the same room.
Both proposals were built around a copper colored silk I had on hand.
Fabrics were selected.
A floor plan was drawn in 1/2" scale showing the room and planned furniture placement.

The upholstered cornices were made first. The upholstered headboard was made followed by the silk comforter and canopy drapes. After the love seat was slip covered the dressing table,chairs,night tables and decorative pillows were completed.

Now that I'm getting used to doing this, I'll try to write a new post every two weeks. Check back.
Your Master Bedroom at the Showcase house was GORGEOUS!!! Beautiful color palate that was very restful and at the same time so elegant. Many unique "one-of-a-kind" items that blended very nicely. There was so much to look at, I spent the most time in your room taking it all in. Your room was the best in the house, hands down. Thank you for your talent.
