Upstairs Guestroom
This is more of a “boy’s room” than the girly guestroom downstairs. The tree here is decorated with a group of teddy bears that used to be a serious collection. We had a German exchange student many years ago and many of the teddy bears were sitting in a wagon wearing Halloween costumes that I made for each one. It seemed like that was the only serious memory she took back home…I am sure she is still telling people about the crazy American lady who dresses her bears for Halloween! Anyway, I put all the smaller bears on this tree, plus some tin tea sets, and I found some really cute little handmade Raggedy Anns and Andys many years ago at yet another craft show. The base of the tree is filled with old children’s toys and books.
The bed has a number of Christmas needlepoint pillows–no, I did not stitch them, most were given to me by my sister and she didn’t stitch them either!
The “Skates Sharpened” sign was painted by my friend Tony who owns Feathernesters in Richmond (a WONDERFUL shopping experience!)
