Adding Farmhouse Style in the Bedroom

Hello everyone!

Since moving things around after Christmas, certain things ended up in different places.  One of them was the extra large old gate that used to hang above my fireplace.  When I took it down, I wanted to be able to use it some place else.  I've only had it a few months anyway!  So, I decided to give it a try in my bedroom above my bed.

The only way it would fit was on its side though.  But laying it on its side caused it to not be level.  So, I had to temporarily add something to one side to level it up.

I asked my husband to make me something with a piece of wood to place under one side.  One he does that, it will look a lot better.  (I hope!)

But, for now, this will have to do.  I really like the large scale of it and the rustic style which gives my bedroom more of that farmhouse feel I love.

The best thing about it is that it is something unexpected and repurposed.  That is something I strive to do throughout my home.  

I should do a post about all of the things that I've repurposed in my house.  I think you would be surprised how many there are!  

Thanks for stopping by!
