Guest Bedroom/My Office

I was going to show pictures of my kitchen today, but decided to show my guest bedroom/office instead. OK, the kitchen has dirty dishes in and around the sink and I don't feel like washing them right now. I know all of you probably wash your dishes as soon as they're dirty so your kitchen always stays clean. I've also been changing some things around and am not done yet. The walls in my guest bedroom always look limey in pictures, but they don't look that bright in person. I have done the room in mainly black and white. I have always loved that combination and it's easy to decorate with it.












My husband made the picket fence bench in the picture above. You can lift up the seat and there's storage inside. The three pictures hanging above the bed are prints from calendars I matted and framed. I love to buy calendars with pictures I like and use them as wall art. The checked pillow on the bed has a red fleur de lis on it that I stenciled on. One project I want to do is to make some pillowcases. I don't like the His and Hers ones I have on the bed now. I got them as a wedding present and I do like them because somebody cared enough to take the time to make them. But, they would look good in a more vintage looking room, not this room. I also have three boxes of decorating magazines/catalogues on the floor by my desk that I need to find a place for. Sorry, I didn't think you'd care to see that. They're the first thing my son goes to and wants to mess with. I love my decorating books/magazines! I look at them over and over again. Well, I hope you enjoyed seeing this room. None of my rooms are magazine quality, but I like them and that's what matters. Right?!
