Decorating my bonus daughter’s room while she is at camp for under a $1000
But first we need to clean
Her dad built this house for all of us so we can all be under one roof after five years of dating
I have a blank shell to work with. She wants all white but I see a small hint of color for her room
I will be using items found at the thrift store and Facebook to decorate
Refurbishing furniture is one of my favorite hobbies
I have just four days to complete everything
The curtain rod was bought from HomeGoods plus a few other items you will see soon
I refurbished these curtains and washed them and they were the perfect fit
