New Bedroom

A few months ago, I decided to sell all of our bedroom decor and start over. I had been looking forever for a comforter to match and never could find one. So, our Jr Church yard sale came along and I sold everything! A couple of weeks later, I found 3 that would have matched, but it was too late now!! :(
So, being the tightwad that I am, I did not want to spend a lot of money redecorating it. Either it was coming from yard sales/Goodwill/clearance counter or it was something I already had. :)

Drumroll, please.....I did it!!!

Found the comforter, bedskirt, and curtains at GW. All were like new, so I dry cleaned them and voila! The curtain was actually one big one, but I chopped it up and sewed 2 out of it.

The rose tree, flower plaque, tea kettle, tea cup, and bead garland were all from GW, yard sales, or thrift stores.

Was excited when we went yard saling Saturday to find a picture that matched!!! Yay! The rose plaque and birdhouse were previous yard sale purchases.

This little jar was found at GW, but needed something to go in it. So, I walked over to their floral part and found two Christmas twig things with all these balls on them. Chopped them off and put them in it.

Now, I know some of you are probably thinking.......Wow! Her house does not match! She must have about 92 different themes going on! :) Well, it's true! I like them all, so....that's just going to be how it is till I make millions and can buy whatever I want! :) LOL!
