My DREAM is to open my own store of refurbished furniture, art, & other creations by local artists! It will most likely be several years until it ever opens. Until then, I plan to put pictures on this blog of things I have done as well as neat decorating ideas that I hope to use as inspiration for when my reveries unfold.

Do it yourself room.
My headboard is made out of two hollow doors. I got a discount on the doors because they had been punctured. Then I hinged the two doors together on the front and back. Next I sprayed adhesive on the doors & laid my foam on top, wrapped it with black corduroy fabric all the way around, & stapled it on the back. It is about 3-4 inches thick and It can be a big dramatic queen headboard turned vertically & a king size headboard turned horizontally. The bed is just pressed up against it, no need to mount it because it sits on the floor.
This was a brass chandelier that I found at Salvation Army for $4 and spray painted black. It is probably my favorite piece in my room and was SUPER cheap.
This chair my mom found at Blue Suede Shoes in Bryant for $20 and then we had it recovered... so cute!
This dresser was my great-grandmas that I painted black & added antique pulls. It was originally a yellow/orange wood with boxy wooden pulls.
