the finish product

last night sam and i hemmed curtains and hung our pictures
it's crazy how big of a difference every little thing makes in our house 
i suppose that's one bonus of buying a ghetto house

here are the pictures
and yes i am guilty of fluffing the pillows
adding accessories 
and switching lamps around for the pictures
 my side
 sam's side
together 

overall i'm pleased with the finish product
i think i could have done a better job picking colors 
but i love having something that we made together in our bedroom
and the affordability was a bonus
the memory makes me love it more 
(when i get sick of it we can just reuse the canvas)

we just bought some cheap-o tray tables for our nightstands 
hopefully we will get them painted this week
then i want to buy some new lamps with my homegoods giftcards
(thank you birthday!)
then we are saving to get bamboo blinds for the windows in the front room and bedroom
and i want to tuft the headboard
every step is small but rewarding.

and maybe in ten years i'll be done... and want to do it all over again

Julia, I feel that way about you with your sewing machine!! I think that once you move and I have this baby we should get together for some creative support to decorate our houses and cloth our babies.
