Guest Room Week #3: Canopy Week Three Already?

orc

Welcome to week three of the One Room Challenge.  This time around I am redecorating my Guest Room that my parents stay in when they visit.  You can see Week 1 and Week 2 if you want to the progress so far.

This Week I have been sewing.  I received the fabric for the canopy and started making it.  This is how it looks right now:

I’ve made the tailored valance that will hang in front, but I need my husband’s help to hang it.  I also want to make or find tiebacks to hold the panels closer to the back wall so my guests can more easily use the furniture and lamps beside the bed.

I have also made a skirt for the Ikea storage piece that I’m using as a coffee station.

It still needs a little love, but you get the idea.  I visited my parents this weekend and my mom gave me the two canisters in the above picture to use for the coffee station.  I’ve put sweetener in one and the k-cups in the other.  I’d also like to get a frog or other trim to add to the table skirt, like I did for this bedskirt in my first ORC:

That’s all for this week.  Please check out the other ORC participants’ work here: Wednesday participants & Thursday guest participants.

Have a good week!
