what we did on our summer vacation........

 Remember the first week of class when you had to write a paper about your summer vacation? Well, here's a little sampling of some things we did......

overslept

played putt-putt golf

fed the turtles

saw Coldplay

cooled off at the water park

Enjoy these last days of summer!!!

God Save the Queen!!

The 2012 summer Olympics are just a few weeks away!!

Since the games are being held in London, we thought we'd show you some ways to incorporate the Union Jack into your kids room or nursery.

Pillows and bedding are an easy and inexpensive way to add some British flair.

How about a Union Jack sofa and ottoman?

 

These Union Jack floor tiles are to die for!! They already have that time-worn look.

Give an old piece of furniture new life by emblazoning it with the Union Jack. This one is from Mustard Seed Interiors.

Think the Union Jack is just for boys? Think again! Any girl (or dog!) would LOVE to have these pillows and wall hanging in her room. You can't go wrong with the classic red-white-blue color combination.

Are you feeling rebellious?? This Union Jack wallpaper would look F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S. on one wall.

Hope these ideas inspire you to channel your inner Brit and 

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!!!!!

Happy Easter!

We've been off the radar for a while, but we have a good excuse! We've been behind the scenes redesigning our website www.georgeandbessie.com with the help of the uber-talented Catherine Haugland at Avalon Rose Design. You can check out her portfolio at www.theavalonrose.com.

We've been searching the country for the BEST vintage finds for your nursery or child's room and have found some AMAZING things. We also added a new category called 'What's New' which will be updated regularly, so check back often.
