Jenni's Room

This may seem like a strange post, but I promised Jenni that I would put some pictures of her new room on here. Jenni moved out of last Octoberish. It was time for her to move on and experience life on her "own" a little bit. She was very excited at the prospect of having her own room. Although we miss her very much, it has been a good thing.

She decorated and coordinated everything in her new room and I think that she did a pretty good job! The headboard was actually my Grandma's and used to be a light oak. Jenni sanded all the furniture down and painted everything black and then sealed them all. I forgot to take a picture of her dresser. That actually used to be her cousin, Samantha's. Samantha passed away 16 years ago when she was two years old. I am not sure why, but we have had that dresser in our garage for a long time. Jenni discovered it and has made it look brand new. All the furniture in her room was given to her and she refinished it and all the bedding and decorations she found for a steal. I am kind of proud that she has finally figured out that you never pay full price for anything.

When I visited her for the first time, I was amazed at how clean her room was. When she lived at home, that was certainly not the case. She used to drive me crazy. Maybe all that nagging actually paid off :) I took the picture of the closet just to have evidence that she knows how to organize things. It makes a mother proud!!!
