Two Down One To Go


Well friends I'm finally sharing some pictures from our second of a three bedroom makeover. I painted the walls the same gray and white as the first bedroom makeover. This bedroom was brown so it really did lighten things up. I decided I really didn't want curtains ,so I found this old architectural piece to go above the only window in the room. I painted my oak sleigh bed black. I recovered and painted the two chairs in the corner of the room. I found a quilt at TJ Maxx. The little chest of drawers was really in bad shape, but Jack gave it some tender loving care and nursed it back to health. I found one of those old bed lamps that clamp on the headboard and recovered it. I must admit I smile as  I pass by the room and think......not bad. I am moving on to paint the hall next and then on to my bedroom. Please be patient that one may take a while.
