I thought rather than doing a tedious photo tutorial this time, I might as well just sit down and show you real quick how the process goes, face to face.. Take it away, me!.

The fixing up is already under way on the other side of the room, but today I just felt like doing something quick and fun.Yes, this is fun for me.

(Note to self: Clean the floor under this side table more often.).I started out by pulling the covers out of their holes and giving them a. good vacuum.It’s pretty gross in there.

At least no one can ever accuse me of not keeping it real around here!.Next I took a paper towel and some.

rubbing alcohol.

and gave them a good wipe down to get them nice and clean.interesting in here!.

Just for fun, let’s have a look at where we started in this master bedroom..It was bad, right?.

And with no major renovations or installations, just paint and some pretty stuff, here’s how it’s looking today!.This little room re-do has been totally in the spirit of “just for now” so I can enjoy it and not pull my hair out while I’m waiting for us to be able to do some of the more major renos we’d like to do eventually.
