Getting comfortable

Looking forward to making this house more functional, comfortable and beautiful. I love our house but there is always a running list of things that fall on the "wish" list. Like re-painting our front porch because the dogs have scratched up the paint, the weather has damaged it somewhat and the was not newly painted when we bought our little love nest. Or changing out the ceiling fan in our "new" (more on that later) bedroom because it is modern looking with a brown finish and our bedroom furniture is white. Those are wish list items....

Non wish list items include: buying a guest bed because all we have are the box spring and mattress and I am not asking anyone to sleep basically on the floor. Painting the kitchen and the "new"bedroom colors that are more pleasing to our eyes. Looking for a comfortable recliner for our sweet pea's nursery, finding fabric to make curtains for the nursery and changing curtains around the house to accommodate the new arrival and our changing of rooms.

In the meantime I have been thinking about a new headboard for our bed (because the amazing one allen made was covered in lead paint so it is not currently inside our house) and I am really leaning towards a huge fabric covered headboard (totally DIY) or buying a beautiful four poster from surprisingly IKEA. Looking for inspiration i stumbled across these pictures on someone else's website (taking no credit) and thought they were amazing.
