I slept a little late last night, staying up with the husband to put up some of the stuff we purchased from Ikea and to work on the crafty small things for the décor.
I designed & printed some posters inspired by the Typography posters sold at ridiculous prices online. I’d do some stenciling too, if I had the time.
The wall decals are up too, but I thought it made the room too kiddy and husband remarked that it looked like a nursery. We’ll think of some other things to replace it with, some other day.
We have
finally gotten the time to stretch those Amy Butler fabrics I bought online 5 months ago. We're pretty proud of these since we took alot of pains finding resources on the most affordable stretcher we could find as we paid $120 just for the huge one in our dining area.
For this size, husband did this on his own using $5 Riba frames found in IKEA and it worked just fine.
Yes, we even painted the mirror shelf because the white laminates had gotten yucky.
Shades in the room, like finally.
Now all it needs is a cute blue rug, a pouffe stool/Eames rocking chair, side table, a chest, a throw, tons of cushions and a floor lamp.
Whew all that work, and we’re not even sleeping in this room.
