guestroom, er, photography studio
Did you know guestrooms make good photography studios? Neither did I, until I came home to this. Men. The hubby decided to take over our guestroom, which normally looks more like the picture below to take photos of his artwork in there. Multi-tasking room, I guess. I just hope no one was planning to stay with us anytime soon!I have a few projects I am working on for this room including a mirror for our guests to use, refinishing a bookcase that can't be seen in the photo and finishing up the … [Read more...]
