Surprise Room Makeover

While Zack was off on a work detail in Tucson I decided at the last minute to do a surprise bedroom makeover. I'd wanted to get a pretty comforter I'd seen around (but it was too expensive to buy) so I found a way to make it myself with two flat sheets and a fleece blanket I already had. My friend Katie helped A LOT, so thanks katie! We had a few late nights getting it finished before Zack got home. I also rearranged the furniture a bit and used some decorations we already had to add the finishing touches... and since the bedroom looked so good... I decided to do the bathroom too. It was fun to create something cool out of something simple and learn to sew a bit better.
