Okay, so I guess it's not really redecorating. It's more like picking up where I left off 2 and 1/2 years ago. When I was planning the room a few years back, I liked the idea of the shelf above my bed - that is when the shelf hung level. But it never did. I never worried that it would fall on my head, because my dad helped us hang it and he was sure it wouldn't, but I was annoyed by the look of it. I think that's why I never finished decorating it. I never found anything to put in the center of it except at Christmas when it held the pictures that are normally in the living room. So, while Josh was gone at camp this weekend, I tackled a project.
I really wanted to put something different there, but hadn't found the artwork that I wanted for a price I wanted to pay. Art is expensive! So instead, I bought some cork board and some pretty fabrics and stapled away. It's my first attempt at being crafty, so I'm pretty proud.

Pay no attention to the hastily made bed, I was in a rush to get it made before Josh arrived home.
And this is the last space I need to figure out what to do with. I like these pots, but haven't found any pretty fake flowers to put in them yet. Any suggestions?
Notice my fabulous lazy dusting job...
A special thanks to my mom who helped me pull this all together and dedicated Monday to helping me get it done so that it was a surprise for Josh when he came home.
