Bedroom Fixit' list

I'm all about REUSE, REHOME, AND RECYCLE. I don't see a need to buy a brand new headboard for $500+ when I can make one with minimal supplies. I will study a piece, and do numerous hours of research and figure out how I can make it better and cheaper!! I put the plan on paper, and hubby makes it a reality. We're a perfect pair!! I'll post pictures and directions as I take on each project.

OK I've got about a million projects that I've found over the years that have been stored in the back of my mind. Like I've got all the space back there right??? So I figured I'd post them in here (along with pics of my progress) to keep track.

THE BEDROOM

A picture in this style hanging over the headboard using the colors in the fabric. I can SO do this :) This is actually a Faux Suede Fabric picture with stitching that I found, very cool. Very calming

Hubby and I finally found a set we agreed on!!

Simple, yet enough detail to be interesting. See the true colors of the bedding.

Hubby will make the bed and side tables, and I'll make the headboard. Instead of the white leather pictured here, I was thinking of a dark chocolate brown to match the bedding.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the lamp on the right side table, so I'll have to find a shade that's similar and just stamp it.

A contemporary rug similar to the picture would be pretty cool if I could just find one :)

Modular shelving like this painted in the light teal and cream color will hold books, pictures and various trinkets. I'll design them, hubby will make them, we'll paint them, and he'll hang them. TEAM WORK!!

The last on the list, is actually the first to be completed. Hubby started this project after our current closet literally fell apart. The shelf in the top of the closet came down (well OK 1/2 the shelf), so I demoed the rest :) I'll post pics later of his progress.
