One downside (one of many) about renting, is the inability to paint, and renovate to taste. I however the last few days, got inspired to change things up a bit in our bedroom. I got a sewing machine the other day, which I am so excited about. (it was a birthday present from Jeremiah, finally picked it out), so I made a curtain to cover the tiny closet, and a couple throw pillows. Just a side note, I picked a cushion pattern called sewing for dummies. I figured since I have minimal experience with sewing I could at least follow a sewing for dummy pattern. It was however not EASY, their directions were badly worded and they kept telling me to just throw in things like whip stitches etc...luckily we live in the days of wikipedia. I also painted my "free from the dump" dressers to a richer brown, slighlty more modern, and swapped a greenish color I had in the room before to a more tealish color.
As I am getting more and more eager to get into a place of our own at list these mini updates may tithe me over for the time being:)
PS. My goal is to keep the room clean:) That may be the biggest update of all!
