Wall Displays in Our Home

master bedroom collage and shelf placement

I have been inspired by the cold weather to stay inside and decorate my bare walls.  I have had ideas and just got up the motivation this past week.  Our one year anniversary week in our home.

chalk board paint and the initials of streets we lived on

"frame a frame" concept with inspirational words suspended within them connecting the middle art with ribbon coordinating with sofas

This is the third attempt at making the large living room frames more pleasing.  So far I like it the best, but can not guarantee it will stay this way.  I average on changing displays and rooms every three to four months.

I created a framed display in the living room on the back wall as well.  I incorporated my black and white them.  I love the contrast.

Cheap Mini-Bedroom Makeover

So our bedroom design has nearly made me gag since we moved into our new house.  This is now the 5th bedroom I have had to decorate in our 8 years of marriage.  Each room always looks different according to the lighting, the shape, the color on the walls.  So I have had to adjust things along the way.  We had no money left to add to our room the other home purchases so I left it "as is", uninspiring and discouraging.  Hello 4th of July weekend sale at the fabric store!  I found fabric to revitalize our room totaling less than thirty dollars!  I sewed all week and this is what I came up with.  A bed skirt, four decorative pillows for the bed and two chair pillows for the Goodwill chairs I re-upholstered a couple years back.  Next stop...redoing the two side tables.
