I know. I know. Where on earth have I been?! It's been ages since I guest-posted on Chelsea's Garage, but I'm happy to say I am back with a whole suite of fun projects for you. If you haven't caught up by reading this sweet post by Chels, I recently married Chelsea's brother Caleb! Since my last post, I have been swamped with wedding planning, honeymooning, moving, being married, and... getting used to living with a boy ;)

So I thought I would start you off with the first tour of a room in our new apartment {and frankly, my favorite} - the master bedroom. Our bedroom is small and comes with some {BRIGHT} skylights. After extensively researching my options for how to keep such strong sun out so that Caleb could sleep in, I decided on building a ceiling canopy around our bed. The curtains are hung from a rectangular frame made from copper pipe and pipe fittings from Home Depot. There are two curtain panels for the "headboard", one for the top canopy, and 3 pairs {6 total} for the remaining 3 sides.

Here's a close up of the Threshold Tufted Bench from Target. Although he's petite, I love this guy - and he's a good size for our little 12'x13' Master.
