Finding the Right Decor

   I recently cleaned all the junk out from my room, took my bunk beds apart and stored them in the attic, and rearranged my two bookshelves. I decided that I wanted to redecorate my room with repurposed and salvaged items, so while I was in Clarksdale one day I went to a junk store that was located in a dirty, waterlogged, dusty, store front that used to be some bigger store. The owner was just trying to make an honest living selling anything that he could. He was really nice and checked on me offten to see if I needed help or had any questions. I found some salvaged chippy painted wood that I liked, an old cotton painting on a wooden panel and as I was fixing to pay the owner for what I had, I saw an amazing trunk barrier under a pile of junk. I quickly asked if it was for sale and he said that it was for sale, so I said SOLD!!! After that I had a trunk for redeocating my room, I just needed a desk and a few little items to hang on my walls. I have a few animal skulls that I want to hang on the walls. I also want to print and frame some of my personal photography. I am going to use one of my bookcases as an art supply station on the left of my desk and the book shelf on the right is going to be my curiosity cabinet. I have so many small curiosity cabinet worthy pieces but I'm going to have to organize it. I also collect weird and strange pottery pieces. I have a Penny Loafer made of clay, a bright orange hunting themed pitcher, and a blue and grey glazed bowl that I found in local woods. Oh! I almost forgot... I got my new desk from my families business that works on and hand-builds Cotton Module Trucks. I notice a dirty, little, blue, wooden desk that needed love, so I broke out the sponges and cleaning spay and put some elbow-grease into shining it up a little bit. Then I called a local glass cutting company and got a custom piece of glass cut for the top of the desk. I brought it home and wa-la, a salvaged desk given new life. Then same day my family went to Cleveland, MSto shop at Wal-Mart and I bought some drawer organizers that are Lego like. They stick together on the sides of each cubby. I am still working on decorating, but hope to be through soon.
