Guest rooms ¤¤¤ GÄSTEZIMMER



We recently finished the renovations on two guest rooms, which had been quite a big job, since we put a new floor into one, painted the floor in the other and in another room we even insulated and put in a new outside-door... so we've been very, very busy!

WIR HABEN GERADE 2 GÄSTEZIMMER GRÜNDLICH RENOVIERT...


But before I show you more picture... Does anybody still know what a dust sheet is?
It used to be fairly common in Britain and the States, but these days i must say i'm quite in doubt if anybody is really still using these...
Anyway, above you see the dust sheet, it comes over the main matraze and the top matraze and is below the normal sheet on sleeps on.

HIER DIE UNTERLAGE DES BETTES...


This is the final result on one of the guest rooms. but I have to say the lighting sucks, it was late at night and I just wanted to have a picture in bright light, so people could see the fabrics. normally I don't think people would have the bright lights on, but rather a cozy smaller lamp...

ALLES IST BEI GRELLEM LICHT FOTOGRAPHIERT, DAMIT MAN ALLES AUF DEN BILDERN GUT SEHEN KANN...


Also I have to admit, all the furniture do still need painting... well i have painted them white alright, BUT they are in time gonna be decorated with some small delicate old-fashioned flower patterns. But this will take a while to do and in the mean time it also looks alright this way.

DOCH ICH DENKE, DASS JEDER GAST LIEBER DIE GEMÜTLICHE ATMOSPHÄRE VON KLEINEREN lAMPEN GENIESSEN WIRD, WENN ER HIER IST. DANN IST ES NÄMLICH SO RICHTIG SCHÖN GEMÜTLICH...


The chairs are also going to be turned into a work of art - will millions of tiny golden dots which will create beautiful flower patterns...

ACH JA UND DIE WEISSEN MÖBEL WERDEN AUCH NOCH VERZIEHRT WERDEN - MIT KLEINEN BLÜMCHENRANKEN!


This is the other guest room, on a daily bases used by my oldest son as an office/music/entertainment room.

HIER DAS ANDERE GÄSTEZIMMER.


Again the picture was taken in bright light and with a flash, but it's really so cozy at night, because we have all these beautiful small lights there...

ES IST IN GRÜN UND WEISS GEHALTEN.


So I usually find the boys here, having a cozy time, enjoying music or a film...

UND ABENDS SIEHT ES DANN SO AUS, WENN ALLES IN DAS GEMÜTLICHE lICHT VON KLEINEN lICHTQUELLEN GETAUCHT IST...


And here you can see what it looks like in the evening with small, cozy lights on... It's a very romantic and relaxing atmosphere...

  1. Just beautiful Sarah Sofia, I love that first guest room, the bed looks so inviting...when can I move in? :D
    You have been very busy and it all looks so lovely, the lights here in the last photo look amazing and the atmosphere would be very romantic.
    We have 'dust' sheets here on our beds but here they are called a 'valance', they look very nice when they match the bedspread or doona cover.
    So nice to have you back. ♥
