Bedroom gallery wall

Now that we have lived in our home
for one year now,
I figured it was time to put a little effort into 
decorating the master bedroom.

Keep in mind when you see the pics of the room,
that this home was built in 1912,
our "Master Room",
is probably the size of your 
kids room, or the size of
your master walk-in closet.
The dimensions are about 13X12 feet.
 And the closet is about 4" wide.

Older homes did not have large rooms like we do today,
the home was heated completely by
the coal fireplace in the living room...
and heating smaller rooms was much easier.

These are all the little frames etc,
that I have picked up
over the past little while to decorate our room.

Since the room is so small,
I wanted to keep it very simple.
So here is the new SIMPLE gallery wall
that I have hung next to our
bedroom closet!!

Total Cost: $16.50



Gold Frame from Burlington, $3.98 (clearance)
White wood frame, gift from Grandma's basement $0

Canvass plaque with the quote that was on our wedding CD mixes that were a reception gift, Wedding gift $0
