Guest Room Update

There was a furniture bazaar at Camp Zama army base this weekend and wow is it hard to go in there and not buy any furniture! The furniture fills a room the size of a football field and is stacked 3 high in some places. Then outside there is more furniture as well as a few tents full of fun knick-knacks. I managed to only purchase birthday, Christmas and father's day presents with the exception of some fabric to make a curtain for the kitchen window.

I promised myself I would only buy a piece of furniture if it was exactly what I wanted which I didn't find so instead, one of the furniture makers is going to make a piece for me. I gave him the Potterbarn catalog page, some modifications and dimensions and he said he would have it for me in September! I can't wait!

Ever since our trip to Ikea on Tuesday I have been thinking about this headboard. I really liked it and even better it was marked down to $30 from $150. Yes, $30! So I drove back last night and bought it. It's suppose to be mounted to a bed frame, but that didn't really work with our frame so I just set it on the floor. I also brought the patio table that has been sitting out on the balcony since we moved in and added it to the guest room. I think this room is finally coming together. Just in time for Glenn to see it for a few days!
Note: The orange pillow case is because that is Stella's favorite place to lay in the house and the white pillow case was becoming less and less white. I promise I'll put a clean one on if you come visit though. :)
