Attic Makeover

If you're dreaming of a four-poster bed but are on a budget, you can create the look of one with curtain rods and panels. The effect of a four-poster bed is achieved when you suspend four curtains rods from the ceiling, one above each of the four sides of the bed. You then hang curtain panels on the rods and gather them at the corners, giving the illusion of a four-poster bed. It's an inexpensive way to add romance and drama to your bedroom.

It's where the magic happens. Whether you need a new bed or just some extra storage, here are some clever ideas to turn your bed into the sanctuary it deserves to be.

Grady's been obsessed with dinosaurs for a while now, so it wasn't hard to come up with a theme for his birthday party this year. He was so excited for all of his friends to come over that he literally waited by the window for a solid hour. Then he waited on the front steps for another half hour. :) I love him so much. We had originally planned to have the party outside, but the forecast threatened rain, so my mom & I scrambled to get the attic cleaned up, floor painted, & closets…
