That odd space…..

 

Part of the upstairs renovation included adding closets

to all three of the bedrooms.

Adding closets to a really old house can be a bit tricky……

The only way to add a closet

to this bedroom was to create a sort of bump out.

Since the ceiling is ten feet tall this left a bit of an odd space above the doors….

The other day I found this frame at an antique store and

I knew it would be

just the perfect size for that odd wall space.

Of course it is a bit worn and chippy……

Beautiful blooms….

The other day my darling handyman brought me flowers….for no reason!

I was quite shocked but really

delighted to receive such beautiful blooms after such a hard week.

He told me,” They are just Carnations……..”

to which I replied, “ but I love Carnations!”
