American Girl Julie Doll Bed Dream Makeover

American Girl Julie Doll Bed Dream Makeover

Julie is likely one of American Girl Doll's most popular, award winning and sought after dolls and your American Girl Doll collection is likely to be consider incomplete without her.

Julie is one of American Girl's period dolls.  She is representative of the 1970's when women's independence and recognition in the work place and the political scene begin to take rise.  More on her story can be found in the American Girl "Meet Julie Book" Volumes 1 Thur 6.

Many women during this time period began seeking entrepreneurship; starting businesses and career paths.  Julie's story is in part the inspiration for our Dream Doll Bed Makeover.  We encourage you to take each and every opportunity to allow your little decorator to develop her skills.  Below we have the beautiful and well constructed doll bed from American Girl.

The bedding, linens, pillows, and canopy are bright and colorful.   The colors are vibrant, varied, and consistent.  It's all a magnificent job that fits Julie and her time period. 

However, we wanted to allow our very own little decorator to have fun with the original bed to make changes, suggestions, and let her imagination soar.  Our little decorator is already a huge fan of American Girl Dolls so this project was easy, fun, and educational all at the same time.  Below is the outcome of the already well constructed American Girl Doll Bed. 

The transformation began with changing out the orange canopy for some of  our little decorator's favorite colors, pink and white.  She thought it would be best to keep the same shape and design of the original doll bed canopy and only limit the change to the fabric texture and colors.

 

Our little decorator then decided on a textured fabric containing rose buds for the bed spread and pillow shams.   For the bed spread and pillow sham she chose a beautiful and soft bright pink and for the neck roll she decided on another one of favorite colors fuchsia in which she had Julie to present in the picture.  Our little decorator also wanted to maintain some of the doll bed's original pillows and accessories.  As a result the orange pillow and the multi colored beads remain.

If you would like to order custom bedding and linens for your little decorator's dream doll bed makeover and the matching twin or full size custom bedding; you may contact us at beautifullydone@sbcglobal.net or 281-820-0139.

Hitting The Trail

Although, ranching has changed over the years where as trains have taken to the plains, and wagons have been traded in for pick up trucks, and in some cases horses have been replaced by all terrain vehicles resulting in the annual trail ride becoming more of a tradition which is alive and well.

 

The trail rides of today are vastly diverse, encompassing just about every walk of life. Trail Riders of today range from bankers, children, and fire fighters to the actual modern day cowboys and girls.
The trail rides are exciting, and entertaining. The trail riders enjoy the opportunity to interact with family and friends and experience the outdoors much like the days of yesterday year with the exception of a few modern electronic gadgets and devices.

Many of the changes are not limited only to the trail ride and riders, but also include some changes to many of the ranches themselves. While the ranches are still rich in tradition, many of them have implemented modern devices such as irrigation systems, electric generating windmills, and phone service.

 

 

 

While most of the ranches hold true to character, many have added some modern touches including furnishing and Beautifully Done Custom Drapery. We at Beautifully Done Custom Drapery salute all the men, women, and children taking to the trail during rodeo month and as always please feel free to contact us when it comes to your window covering needs at 281-820-0139 or send us an email at beautifullydone@sbcglobal.net

 

  HAPPY TRAIL RIDING!

Resort, Golf Course, and Waterfront Living

Bentwater a master-planned gated golf course and lake community exists in perfect harmony with its environment. It encompasses 1,400-acres and boasts 2,000 residents all nestled between the 22,000-acre Lake Conroe and the 160,000-acre Sam Houston National Forest.

Bentwater is a combination of tranquil, upscale living with a multitude of recreational amenities that include but are not limited to a prestigious Country Club, a Signature Landmark Yacht Club and Marina on Lake Conroe’s North Shore, a Seven Acre Park. Texas’ only waterfront, gated community offering 54-holes of Championship Golf, Pro Shop, Resort Style Pools, Racquet Club with stadium style tennis courts, Aerobics Instructors, a Full-Service Day Spa complete with Massage Therapists, a 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art Fitness Center, Fitness Classes, and Personal Trainers.

Residents Colonel Vincent & Sandra Jefferson moved on up to Bentwater in the summer 2007 with the purchase of a spacious well laid out traditional style home located on the 18^th hole of the Miller Course designed by Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish. The Miller Golf Course was the first developed of the three golf courses that Bentwater proudly boast.

Although, the Jefferson’s purchased their home in the summer of 2007, they did not actually move in until late 2011. Once they were unpacked and settled, they immediately began getting acquainted with neighbors, and the amenities of Bentwater’s Golf and Lake living as well as offering up professional services of their own in the area of fitness and personal training.

While their home and the community of Bentwater offers numerous amenities; the Jefferson’s did not hesitate to add some personal touches of their own to the newly acquired home. They decided to begin in the most obvious place, the family room and kitchen. These are the entertaining hubs of most all homes.

The foundation of their family room and kitchen’s flooring, cabinets, and appliances were adorned with staple products and materials such as a combination of slate and wood flooring, custom built cabinets, granite counter tops, Sub Zero fridge and Viking range.

Mrs. Jefferson and Beautifully Done Custom Drapery worked together to select fabric choices that were warm, inviting, tasteful, and that would tie the rooms together and create a space that is comfortable and relaxing, but not at the consequence of elegance.

The pair agreed on window treatments and a style that would not only compliment, but dress, and frame the windows in both entertaining areas of the home without compromising it’s grand view of the luscious greens of Bentwater’s Miller Golf Course.

Mrs. Jefferson, only endured a delivery and installation of a brief two week wait and the installation of her Beautifully Done Custom Drapery took all but two hours. Upon the revealing of the new addition to her space, Mrs. Jefferson was delightfully amazed to see that her Beautifully Done Custom Drapery went well beyond her expectations as she made mention of by stating that “…this is one of the rare times in life when my expectations are exceeded!” and that “…the client testimonials fall short of what is actually delivered!”
