a place under the stars

Yesterday, as a little surprise for Valentine's Day, I decided to build a fort in our living room for us to curl up in and watch movies. The living room is a bit of an unused space for us at the moment, so it's something I've thought about doing for a while now. Then I saw this post and was inspired enough to actually go for it. So, while the boy was at work, I collected a bunch of bedspreads and clothespins and got busy.


It was meant to be a present of sorts, but I had so much fun with the building side of things that it turned into a gift for myself too. I decorated with lights and feathers, and hung a silk scarf with stars and moons inside so it would be like looking up at the sky.

That is SO cool! I would love to do something like this. I use to do this as a kid, it would definitely bring back some great memories. :) xo
