A while back I surprised my parents-in-law with a bedroom makeover while they were enjoying a well deserved cruise for their anniversary....
Although they liked their room well enough, it didn't reflect their love for the tropics that they enjoy so much.... So I thought I would freshen up their room with ....
with new pillows, shams, bedskirt...
lamps, ...
art........
window treatments.......
I covered the top of their storage trunks with fabric from the window treatments...
added a luxurious throw...
a little tropical greenery ....
then I went to work on their bathroom...
New art and window treatments here as well....
a tropical arrangement for the vanity with Mom's favorite flowers, bird of paradise and antheriums.......
I was pleased to have found this copper art work for the wall...
and TAH-DAH.....
Paradise found............
My parents in law are the best a girl could hope for. They were so appreciative and surprised, it was really a rewarding experience for me!P.S. I have been able to enlarge my pics by adjusting the html, but for unknown reasons it did not work tonight....has something in blogger changed, or is it my computer?! :o(
Please join us at Susan's for more transformations!

What a sweet thing to do for your in-laws. Both rooms turned out beautiful. Reminds me of a vacation spot. :)
Love the window treatment fabric, rattan or is it wicker trunks, the greenery & the floral arrangement in the bathroom. I bet they loved it & you for doing it. We need our projects, don't we? :O) I know I do. When my house gets done, I have to move!
Aren't you sweet to do this makeover? I love how everything turned out. Looks great!!! Love & blessings from NC!
