What a wonderful March day we had here in Oklahoma. Of course, the wind was blowing as usual so I could not stay outside very long. I have a problem with allergies. Tried that last weekend and spent the rest of the weekend with my head stuffy, nose runny and generally just feeling crummy.
This weekend I picked up a bench I had reupholstered. I know it would have probably been just as cheap to go buy a new one but this one was solid and had good bones to it. See the pictures above. I think it turned out beautifully. Just ignore the bedspread. That is only temporary until I repaint my room. I have a beautiful one that will fit right into the jungle motif I am going for. When I picked up my bench I also bought 1/2 yard of other upholsetry material for my dressing table chair. It's enough to cover my dressing table chair and plenty left over to do a pillow for my bed. I think it turned out pretty good!
Right now I'm in the midst of working on another bedroom, but when it is completed I will start on the above room. I just wish I didn't have to work then I could do stuff every day to make my home look beautiful. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I enjoy each of my rooms. As I've been working on each room I have dowsized and put stuff in my shed or garage so I can have a garage sale this summer. I'm not a minimalist but I don't want a bunch of stuff around either. Well, it is getting late in the evening so guess I'll close this one down and say good night or good day to some who may live on the other side of the world!!
