Procrastination..... And Room Redo 2015!

Hey guys, you guessed it! It's Ashleigh.
   I have a bad feeling that I'm going to keep saying "I'll put up my Etsy store by the end of this month," and then nothing's going to happen. This time, I have no explanation. Uh, well, no GOOD explanation. The simple answer here is one word. Procrastination.
     I've been looking at the IKEA website (IKEA!!!!! I understand why people like it so much now!!) and trying to figure out how I'm gonna redo my room this year. The way that I wrote that makes it sound like I redo my room every year. HA! Wouldn't that be nice? But no, the last time that my room was redone was when I was nine. Currently, my room is half bright green and half purple and covered in bug art. One of my walls is entirely covered by those little wooden cutouts that you can buy at the craft store, and the rest of the walls are full of cute little illustrations of bugs and flowers. And fake flower garlands EVERYWHERE. My room looks like a garden. Let's count how many bug/nature related things are hanging on my wall right now! 1, 2, 3,......28, 29! 29 things! Darn, that's more than I thought. But there's more- the rest of my wall space is full of decorations that I've had since I was a baby! I have a better one. Let's count how many things that I want to take off of my wall. 1, 2, 3,..... 46, 47 things! Phew! And if you want to count the chair rail that separates the green paint from the purple paint, you've got 48!
     Okay, that was enough counting and complaining for this post. How about I show you what I'd like to get from IKEA? Sound good? No? I'm gonna show you anyway :P BTW, these are just the pictures from the website; I didn't buy these yet, and my photos would be pretty cruddy compared to these.

     I can't wait for my room to be redone!! That desk, though. Man, there would be so much more storage space than what I have now! And I could put a fish bowl on it, too :D Maybe I'll show you when it's all done... Okay, that's all for now.
