What do you think? I like how it turned out. I'd rather have another night stand than the bookcase but until I do, the bookcase is serving as a nightstand. Next on to the chandelier. It does add a little romance doesn't it?

Here is a close up of the nightstand. It was a freebie from my SIL. It was one of those pine Mexican pieces. Adding the silver knob and painting it black gave it a whole new look. I think I have a "before" picture somewhere. If I find it, I'll post it later. The lamp and shade were $29 from Taipan Trading. I love that store!!!

The bedding if from Target as well as the draperies. Can't remember what I paid for them but they were very reasonable (or I would have made my own.) This is a frame that I bought from Michael's on clearance. It was around $30. I added scrapbook paper until I get some pictures printed.

Here are the curtains.

This is what is on the bookcase. .. along with Stephenson's Mint truffle Hot chocolate mix. There is a kitchen and microwave next to this room. I got the platter and mugs at T.J. Maxx (my favorite store.)

The iron work over the bed I had in my give away pile. I painted it black and now I love it again. (It used to be in my bathroom over the toilet.)

Here is the shelf that is made out of a quarter of a door. I need to merchandise it but I also plan on decoupaging some black and white patterned paper in the center panel and painting the routered edge around that black. I think it will help it blend in better.

My parents come tonight. I hope they enjoy staying in this room. (I hope it won't smell like paint fumes.) :)

I just purchased a gently used mexican pine piece. I am inspired to paint it after seeing yours. Would you

A thousand thanks,
