Red, White & Blue Guest Room

I finally got something up on the window in the r/w/b room.

The shelf was over the window in baby boy's room (before he moved upstairs and that room became my office/sewing room) It spent several years in the attic collecting dust and I brought it with me not really knowing if I would have a place to use it or not.

It used to be blue - but not the right blue for this room. I looked for a pic but haven't found one yet (pre-digital camera)

I painted the shelf and made the valance - which it turns out I should have lined but I'm not taking it down and doing it over.

I need to get out my camera book and see if I can figure out why my camera isn't taking pictures as well as it was. I'm sure someone (wonder who?) has changed a setting - I just need to figure out which one so I can change it back! I know some of the problem with these pictures is simply lighting but I still think there is something set wrong.

Love the valance! I also love that yard gate against the wall!

The shelf and valance are perfect together.
Isn't it funny how many things we missed out on photographing when we didn't have digital cameras?
