A Little More Progress in the Guest Bedroom and some Valentine's Cards

Six hundred and forty-four to be exact. I am weeding my way through them and thought I would start with this guest bedroom. Since I last showed you this room <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2013/12/our-guest-bedroom.html">back in December</a> we've added a few more touches in here to warm it up a bit. I found an 8 by 10 rug online for 70% off that included free shipping a few weeks ago so I was quite excited about that. And I got the roman shades at Lowe's for just $20 a set. I really love them and they were so easy to install. They literally only took about ten minutes. I went back to get more so I could add them to several other windows in our house that are in need of some blinds but discovered they were discontinued.  I got another set for our master bedroom but that was it. <br /><br />Now that the other bedrooms are finally starting to take shape there has been quite a bit of furniture moving around going on. I ended up moving the mirrored chest that was in this room into the other extra bedroom (which I took pictures of yesterday too so will share those soon) and in it's place put the dresser that we used in our living room at our old house and I moved these nightstands that used to be in our master bedroom at our old house in here. I am pretty sure both of those items are going to stay put in here now.  I moved the large lamp that was in here into the other guest room and then added these matching lamps. I also got a few bright pink pillows from Target per Lillie and Lola's request. They are just temporary and will eventually go in their bedroom but it's kind of fun for now to have the pop of color. I have something in mind for what I am going to do for more year round pillows in here once I move the pink on out.<br /><br />Here's a little reminder of what the room looked like back in October:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
