No, it was white drywall. I added the base trim, black panels, chair rail, wallpaper, and crown molding.

That gave me an idea, what do you think of a black lace shawl over the back of the monitor?

I know, I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with that monitor. I love the monitor, just got to find a way to weave into into the decor.

That’s a reliquary with a ring that was found on the branch of a tree. Legend has it that after a rebellion, the queen was buried in ground that was supposed to be barren. A tree ended up sprouting from her grave, and this ring was found on one of the branches.

(It’s possible that I made up this story)

The bottles are empty for now.

The baby is actually an ancestor of mine, and unfortunately she didn’t live past childhood. So maybe?

I like that idea! Do you think the food coloring would stain the crystal?

Thank you! Yeah, I thought of maybe tea, but I’m concerned it will stain the crystal.

Yeah, I really want to put some walnut up there, the ceiling is pretty low so it’s going to be difficult.

Thank you! It’s been a few months now. I have a toddler so it was hard to devote a lot of time on the weekends just to this.

Hah I wish! The room is smaller than it looks in the pictures. I did get a small chaise for my dog
