The Rusty Plum Store

I just wanted to introduce you to my former store. I plan on re-launching the store online...what once was, shall once again be! Keep checking back and tell your friends about my site. Thanks!

The Evolution of a Master Bedroom

Okay, so I had plain white walls (boring) and I got free paint so I used it! Not the color I would choose, but it's much better than stark white. After I painted, my old bedroom set didn't look very good in there anymore, plus I really didn't like the style. It was hand-me-down furniture that I had when I was married to my former spouse...not so good...so as you might have guessed, I have wanted to get rid of it for awhile now. Therefore, I sold it through a local consignment store, and started a bed fund. I then had a garage sale to add to the fund, and then when I got the commission from my first home sale, I was able to complete the fund in order to purchase the bed of my "dreams" (pun intended)...something I really love! I plan on getting some of the other matching pieces to the bedroom set, little by little, as I save some more dollars.

After the new bed:


























I refinished a cute ladderback chair that I purchased for $4! I love finding inexpensive treasures that I can re-vamp!


My Heritage wall above where the dresser will go!

Now here's the dresser:

I'm using a console for the time-being.


A new addition of an ornamental header completes the wall.








An anniversary gift for my husband! (The saying is true for us...a perfect mantra for our marriage!)
