Today’s coffee I’m sitting in bed saying goodbye to my bedroom as it now.
Today we are disassembling our bedroom furniture preparing for our new set that arrives on Wednesday.
Strange how we can have emotional attachment to furniture. I love this set… even though it never actually fit in our tiny room. The long dresser covers half the window, the chest dresser has lived in either the guest bedroom, Ashlynn’s room or the garage. It’s been over 11 years of being crowded in what should be a relaxing room. Our Master Bedroom is only 10×13 … add in 2 doors and a window to the mix… furniture is hard to fit. It’s not just 11 years with this set… it’s my first actual bed set. My mom bought it for me when she bought her townhouse… over 17 years ago. I brought home my baby girl to this bed.
It’s not just the furniture we’re changing. We’re going to paint too. It’s the only room in the house we haven’t painted. I loved (and still love) this color. It’s a green of sorts and matched wonderfully with our purple comforter. However, in a small room a darker shade makes the room smaller.
I’m excited and anxious about the new set… remember I don’t like change. It’s also, well, it’s not oak. I’m hoping that it looks nice, it fits, it’s functional and it lasts. After much deliberation we’ll have a white bedroom set against light purple walls.
Happy first cups my friends… wish me luck.
