Friday's Flowers...Left over Flower Fabric!



With a little creative and resourceful thought, you can add a little character to old pieces! This desk was my older sisters when she was in elementary school. It was then passed on to me when my she got a bigger desk in High School and then on to my younger sister after I had gotten a bigger desk when I reached High School. 

I recently realized that since most homework is done mostly on the computer these days, I didn't need such a big desk, hence the small desk again! However, it was quite shabby when it circulated back. My younger sister has this need to write little notes and dates on and under home furnishings (she still does it lol). For example, my mothers bureau has my sisters name carved on the side. I should also mention that under the kitchen island is basically my sister's diary! Hahaa I always wondered why she did that. Maybe she subconsciously doesn't want to be forgotten? Thankfully she only put stickers on the desk above.

Also, I heard that bedrooms should be places to distress i.e. no homework stations! 
I have been trying to make it a point to finish what I need to do for the day during the day instead of into the night. It's important to work hard and relax/play even more! I am trying to make my bedroom more simplified and less cluttered by sorting through all the stuff I have gathered throughout the years. Some I salvage, most I donate!

I hope this project inspires you to think creatively about some of the old pieces in your home that could use a revamp!

Till next time!
