Our Rose Suite Freshly Painted

 Our Rose Suite also got freshly painted by painters Stanley Jessup and Randy Slaughter...
They also did the exterior painting, see link below post.
On Thursday, January 13, I'd finished cleaning the Rose Suite living room and placed a Wedgwood bowl  with white Camellias on the coffee table...
This was on November 9, 2021...
A mix of Nuccio's gem and White by the Gate Camellias
Handcrocheted DMC doily with roses was a gift of my best friend Ellie.
They are perfectly arranged in this Wedgwood vase bowl Cream Color on Cream Color.
Other side of the living room with Pieter's electrical organ.
A Thomas Cabinet organ in walnut.

We found this end of 2017, when Pieter's heart condition was critical...
He still loves to play once in a while.
The painters Stanley and Randy had the bed covered... the rest got moved out.
Awaiting guests...

  1. What a lovely house you have and what beautiful decor. You really are skilful and could have been an interior designer. I like your style.

    God bless you and Pieter.

    1. Dearest Victor,
      Thank you and we always tried to have our home reflect its owners.
      You probably know by now that I do love Angels and Roses.
      The silver rosary even is done in roses...
      Hugs,
      Mariette

      Thank you!
      Don't those Camellia Japonica White by the Gate resemble true roses?
      Hugs,

  3. Hello Mariette, Your Rose Suite looks fresh and inviting. You were lucky to find those painters who took such good care. When my apartment was painted (a lot of it when I was in the U.S. a few years ago) the painter, who apparently didn't know the meaning of the word "dropcloth" got paint on literally everything, although I did find a few missed spots on the walls. Of course, you and Pieter know the value of being on-site when work is being done.

    1. Dearest Jim,
      Thank you and we are so sorry to learn about your fate by being abroad when painters do a job. Indeed, the dropcloth is so essential in keeping the rest untouched.
      Oh, while we lived and worked in Indonesia, our home got build and there is a whole list of things that didn't get done the proper way...
      Hugs,
      Mariette

    1. Dearest Diana,
      Thank you and yes it is a special apartment for our guests and ALL done by husband Pieter himself. Before 2004 there were just 60 metric tons of dirt sitting under the house. It got dug out by Pieter and he only had some help for the final stretch as it was getting too hot under the house close to July.
      Proud of my worker bee!
      Hugs and stay warm and cozy.

      Grazie e abbiamo sempre cercato di far riflettere la casa su chi e cosa siamo... La musica è centrale nella nostra casa.

  6. Al hacer la labor de pintar, se crea un cierto desorden, aunque una vez pintado, se te olvida todos los inconvenientes, al ver lo bien que ha quedado todo.

    1. Querida Antónia,
      Tienes toda la razón al respecto. Sin embargo, he esperado unas semanas para dejar que los vapores de la pintura se disipen por completo haciendo funcionar el aire acondicionado, antes de limpiarlo y volver a poner las cosas en su lugar.
      Contento con eso.
      Abrazos,
      Mariette

  7. Absolutely lovely flowers. What color shade do you have on the walls?

      Thank you.
      We have a kind of off–white on the walls but it reflects from the trees outside when the sun peaks through the windows.
      Hugs,
      Mariette
