With my living room almost complete, my recent nesting craze has shifted to my bedroom. My poor, sorry bedroom. I do believe it is the most neglected room in the house. Since we moved in over 5 years ago, I never have done a thing with it. Well, I have started a few times, but never made it very far. Should I admit that we still have the same bedding (bed skirt & throw pillows) from when we got married? I made it all and never have gotten tired of it, even though it's been almost 12 years (really? has it been that long???).
At one point I had a plan. I was going to make some new bedding and decorate the room around these Amy Butler prints (I couldn't even decide which one, so I bought enough yardage of them both) along with the stripe. Gosh, I don't even remember when that was - 4 years ago, maybe? Well, here I am, and I'm not so sure I'm in love with that fabric any more. Hmmm. But if I don't go with that, I'm not sure what I want. I find it odd that I can so easily make decisions about every other room in the house, but I get totally stuck on my bedroom.
And this, friends, is how I ended up with the same dust ruffle for 12 years. I'm very into linen and gray these days. I definitely want a cool, calming vibe in here. Any suggestions? Input? Links? Maybe I should just look at what I've already done in my kitchen and living and go from there. You know what? I'm NOT going to use that AB fabric. I guess I had it in my mind that I had to use one of those, so I was putting it off. Okay, now that I've released myself of that burden, I think this will be fun!
