The shelves are actually rain gutters! I got the idea from Raising Olives. And I've been wanting some vinyl word art but, alas, finances have not made it possible.. so when I ran across thee most wonderful Thirfty Decor Chick, I decided to give it a go myself! And... voila! As you can see, we now have a lovely little reading nook. Been wanting one for my girls for some time and I think it turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself!
I also put together this pillow for my girls:
I took apart two old couch throw pillows and sewed a new cover using scraps of material I had. I didn't have enough of just one material so I decided to use three! Stuffed it with some extra stuffing I had and decided to close it in a not so traditional way.
My goal is to try and figure out a way to add a reading lamp or some sort of extra light for the nook. Will have to give that some thought.
