Our Haven

Because December wasn't quite busy enough, Brad and I decided to undertake a major project: completely redoing our bedroom. Our bedroom has always been a bit cobbled together--hand me down furniture, utilitarian accessories, space for sleeping but not much else. We decided it was time for an upgrade!

First stop, IKEA:
 We are now in love with IKEA. So much so that we made a stop at one in Ohio to pick up a couple more pieces. We managed to find everything we needed there, and Brad couldn't believe how well everything assembled:
 I did all the painting. He did all the assembling. And the finished project makes us want to move it and never leave!

The one wall holds my apothecary (more on that in another post) and some of Brad's books and such:
 We finally have matching night stands (instead of mismatched end tables) and lamps:
 And we created this little seating area:
 And even managed to get the old prints from Grandma's basement on the walls:
It's a perfect haven, and we may never leave.
