LET THE SUN SHINE IN!

This was my bedroom through out the winter months.
Now that Spring is almost here,
I'm making a few changes.



I have been craving the sunshine, so I decided to open up my
windows a bit and let some shine in.
I have replaced my thick cotton drapes
with a sheerer cotton set.
Both pairs came from Ikea and I love them both.


I needed some whimsy so
I made some white and brown paper cranes to
hang in the tops of the windows.


Mixing soft and rough
is a big deal to me,
I ran a burlap ribbon through the openings
made for the rod, adding
texture and movement.


I like the look...for now.
It will hold me over until it is time
to get serious about
Spring and Easter.



Had a few cranes left over.

  2. How can i make my bedroom as cozy as yours? Maybe the pillows make the tricks, or maybe the bedding set.. Oh i love your lace curtains too.

  3. I love your cranes! I'm so jealous over how much natural light you get in there. My bedroom has NO windows!
