What fun! My room is pale, pale violet with white trim. I have an ecletic array of furniture with a big canopy bed surrounded by white gauze. My Scottie, Darby Skye, is sitting on the chaise, and there is a copy of Pride and Prejudice by the large window seat. There is a large wicker screen in one corner of the room that hides the computer. A large wardrobe from the the 18th century stands adjacent to the bed. On the opposite wall is a matching vanity.

Hardwood floors with rugs over parts of them, especially by the bed so there would be no cold toes being put on the floor in the morning. A fair amount of windows to let in light. (Could I have a corner room with two window seats, perchance??) One window seat for the dogs and one for me (the dogs really like to look out the window when not outside).

Speaking of dogs, by the bed, a four poster with bed stands with many drawers for holding *stuff*, there would have to be a stool that the dogs could use to jump up on the bed (don't want them to hurt their backs). Also, the bed clothes would be fairly plain and cotton (better to launder and get clean). The dogs enjoy sleeping under the covers and in the bed as much as the Master does. Sheer curtains over the windows, yes I'm one of those dreaded morning people who actually enjoy watching the sunrise!!

A basket full of yarns for my crocheting would be by a pair of wingback chairs, found in a cozy sitting area. Of course, they would be covered by blankets to protect them from the dog hair.

As for the rest, build in bookcases on two walls, in one corner a computer area and a small, but powerful, stereo. Kinds of books?? Almost as eccletic as the music - a little of everything with the science fiction/fantasy genre slightly over represented. Musical selections would range from classical to cutting edge (some things are better done with the right kind of background music).

Decorations include several prints of my dogs as well as photos taken at shows. (Something about the harem visiting a dog show/sheepdog trial keeps running around in my brain - anybody allergic to dog hair??) A fair collection of hedgehogs round out the knick knacks. And a storage ottoman for all the dog toys.

My room is on the fifth floor. The walls are white, the colour comes from the furniture, throw pillows, and bedding. The bed is on one corner near the windows. The sheets are dark green and the comforter is a mix of dark red, blue, and green. There are a number of large pillows scattered about the floor. (I happen to like sitting on the floor) I have my stereo system and TV set up in a corner opposite the windowed wall to keep the sun off. My music and video collection can be found there as well. The ensuite bathroom is off the wall opposite the bed along the windowed wall. The bath is huge, lots of space for four or a very cozy eight. There’s also a shower with two shower heads (I love those) in one corner. The bathroom windows are more translucent than transparent but the room is still very bright. The toilet and sink area is partitioned from the rest of the room. The walk-in closet takes up the remaining width. There is a three direction full length mirror in the closet as well as a dressing table. The space below the windows is taken up by book shelves which are full to overflowing. There is a smattering of classics such as Jane Austen, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Thackeray but the bulk is science fiction with some mysteries, spy novels, and romance for variety.

When you walk into the bedroom what you first notice across the long expanse of thick deep lavender carpet is a large marble fireplace. Above the fireplace is an oil painting of 1 black and 1 dapple Arabian peacefully grazing in a meadow.  Right under the painting on the mantle is an mixture of knick knacks ranging from teddybears, carousel horses, and white tigers. In front of the fireplace are two overstuffed chairs.  They are the same creamy off-white as the walls with bold slashes of blue and lavender.  To the right of the fireplace are french doors leading onto a balcony overlooking one of the many flowerbeds on the Castle grounds.

To your left you see a light walnut entertainment center.  The stand is in the middle of the wall.  In the center is a 27" tv to the right are three shelves contain the vcr, stereo and a five disc cd changer.  If you open the drawers on the bottom you will see a large collection of video tapes.  A door on the right side opens to show a mixture of cd's ranging from club music, metal, oldies, classic rock, and country. At both corners of the walls are floor to ceiling curio cabinets containing hundreds of horse statues in all different colors, breeds, and positions.

When you look to the right your eyes first settle on the queen size captains bed.  The frame is the same light walnut as the entertainment center.  In the headboard on the shelves are books of various subjects scattered about, and an assortment of creams, magazines, and other odds and ends. On the bed is a fluffy down comforter with the same print as the chairs with lots of big throw pillows.  In the center are my two cats cuddled together sleeping peacefully. Next to the bed on the right is a large windowseat.  The window itself bows out overlooking a lake in the distance.  It also creates a cozy niche in which I spend most of my time reading and gazing out the window.  There is a small tiled spot to rest a coffee mug without damaging the wood.  The best part of the window seat is the recessed bookshelves on one wall. It provide easy access to the many books I have without having to go far to get them. On the last wall that you see there are two doors.  The 1st one leads to a dressing area connected to a walk in closet.  Along one wall is a large vanity table that hold my various nail polishes, makeup and other essential necessities. There is a pale peach counter that spans the entire wall.  In the middle of the counter is an off white sink.  The wall above the counter is a big mirror that makes the room seems much larger then it is.  On the counter you see peach votive candles, a soap dish, and a little bits of clutter spread across its length. Opposite of the sink is a walk-in closet with lots of shelves, and clothes hung in no sense of order.  On the floor is a shoe rack with tons of shoes, sneakers, and boots.

The 2nd door leads to the bathroom with tiled floors and peach throw rugs.  A big off white jazzuzi occupies most of the bathroom.  A linen closet containing fluffy peach towels all neatly arranged in the shelves and miscellanous shampoos and bottles from bath and bodyworks.  A toilet with a peach lid cover sits in a little alcove and located over it is one of those over the toilet space savers with jars of various sizes and shapes some empty and others filled with potpourri.

Feel free to visit anytime.

The door opened into the center of a large bedroom decorated in blues and tans. The carpet was a thick beige pile. A kingsized canopied fourposter pencil bed in a lustrous warm brown birchwood was to the right of the door centered on the wall occuping one end of the room. It was covered with a blue and beige quilt worked in a Lone Star pattern and the edges of a thick light blue comforter peeked out from under the quilt. It was a high bed and a two step stool was placed at the end of one side. A double set of large fluffy pillows sat at the head of the bed and a set of dark blue velvet curtains were tied at each post. Side tables stood on either side of the bed with a lamp, clock, and several books on the left side of the bed. At the foot of the bed was a cedar chest. Adjacent to the door on the right was a triple dresser. On the opposite wall a low bookshelf ran from the corner of the room for approximately 12 feet. On top of the far end of the bookshelf was a 19 inch TV on a swivel stand and nested in the bookshelves was a CD and tape audio system.

At the other end of the room was a small sitting area arranged in a square with a long couch and an overstuffed velvet rocker/ recliner occupying two sides. A huge six by eight foot window seat big enough for several people to recline in was cushioned and full of pillows and made up the third side of the square while the fourth was comprised of a double set of floor to ceiling bookcases with a fireplace set between them. The twin casement windows stood easily seven feet high in the windowseat with large pewter handcranks visible at the bottom. Looking out from the window the lake could be seen through the trees. The bookcase next to the windowseat housed a computer system in half of its cabineted bottom section and a sink and small refrigerator in the other. Entries to the closet and bathroom could be seen on this wall and the twin set of glass doors for the fireplace opened to toward the couch on one side or the bathroom on the other side of the wall.

The bathroom was carpeted in a thick blue pile. Twin sinks were raised slightly higher that the vanity that separated them and spanned one wall reaching to the platform for the L shaped jacuzzi tub. A small upholstered vanity chair was tucked under waiting to be used. A divided area shielded the toilet and a 4 by 6 shower with twin heads.

It was the room of her dreams that she had designed for a house built 5 years ago and Methos had recreated it in almost every detail.
