I have been tossing around several ideas for a headboard for a few years now. Should I use a door or shutters? Maybe I should make my own fabric covered headboard...or perhaps I will find just the right headboard while browsing through thrift stores and garage sales. But, so far...no such luck.
Instead I decided to create a gallery wall with several ornate picture frames that I have collected over the past few months. A few coats of white spray paint on each one and now I have a cohesive collection...
I love how it turned out, but I have discovered that in a very strong thunderstorm there is a bit of a safety hazard involved. Around 2 am one morning, a very strong burst of thunder knocked two of the frames off the wall. Luckily they didn't hit me in the head, but it was close.
Did you notice the adorable chenille blanket? I just happened to find that at an antique mall one day and fell in love. When I bought it, I thought it was a twin or double and it would be perfect for my guest room. But, as it turns out, it is a queen and fits perfectly on my bed. Lucky me!
And just in time too...it has been so hot here, last week we reached 112 degrees and the heat index was in the 120s. AAAHHHH!!!! I needed to get the comforter off my bed because it was too much.
Here is another one of my favorite finds...
An adorable TV cabinet/armoire from Pier 1 (I think) that I found on Craigslist for $75. It is in such great shape and is the perfect fit for my family room!
Isn't it fabulous?
The perfect place to hide the TV and all the obnoxious boxes and cords that go with it. Plus, I gained two drawers to keep movies & board games in. (And by movies & board games, I mean all the junk that is laying around the room and I want to hide before someone comes over!)
Notice the picture sitting on the floor next to it? I will definitely be showing that off later.
