OFFICIALLY OUT OF ROOM !





I found this great primitive wall cupboard the other day and bought it.The thing i didnt count on is not having wall space for it.My girlfriend suggested i place it on the wall going down to the first floor.The staircase is winding and the wall she suggested is seen from the top floor, so i asked hubby to hold it up so i could check it out.I liked it.It filled a vacant wall that i didnt even realize i had.Leave it to her to know the best place to hang it.The long oak shutters are from my trip this fall to Harpers Ferry.Ilove them and even tho they are longer then my window and do not close,I still liked how they looked hanging there.
