D did a fantastic job on the trim! The detail pictures I took didn't do it justice.
I don't love having the bed under the window, but the traffic flow works in a way I like, so I guess it will stay. The box that is supposed to cover the radiator is still in the laundry room, awaiting it's new paint and new screen. Decorative screens are a pain to find--they don't sell them at Home Depot or Lowe's. I have it sourced, I just need to go get it. I have a special dislike for the lamp on the nightstand. I'm thinking I can make it better with a shade, but the age of the cord makes me a little uncomfortable, so maybe we'll just replace the whole thing. We also need a reading light and a (v.small) table on the other side of the bed. Since we're looking for a very specific size to fit between the bed and the closet door, maybe D will build one.
I have a couple of collage frames waiting for me to fill them with pictures. I also have some lovely prints from Nikki McClure waiting to be framed and hung. We have a huge mirror from a different dresser that we think will work above the low dresser.
I bought a rug at Tuesday Morning, but I estimated the size incorrectly. I love it, but it's too small. It looks great in the (short and wide) hall, so we're keeping it. I'll try again sometime soon.


It looks great! So much different than the last time when I saw it with all the sewing projects and boxes of materials in it. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOf course, some of those boxes are now in MY house . . .
I love the color! That's similar to what I'm eventually hoping to do with our main living area.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice way to turn toward spring!
I'll post pictures of my new crafty area sometime soon--sadly it has not seen any use. To go along with the home overhaul, we have made massive strides in decluttering 11 years of accumulated crap from our basement & appointing the new found space to purposes that fits our current needs.
ReplyDeleteFunny, I am looking at our new bedroom as a turn toward spring--neat how we finished and moved so near Imbolc. I had intended to finish and move closer to Samhain, but it was just not to be.
I covet a modern green leaf print comforter cover from Ikea--maybe I'll splurge when the tax refund comes.
