Show Us Your Life - Bedroom

Welcome to part 2 of my home tour, which is part of the larger Show Us Your Life being hosted by Kelly over at Kelly's Korner - this week is the master bedroom part of the tour.

Well, I only have one bedroom - master bedroom it is!

I love my room here. I just moved in 3 weeks ago and after a year in a studio apartment I am loving have a room in which I get to sleep. Rather than sleeping, eating, studying, etc all in one room!
This is looking in from the hallway. I am digging the hardwood floors. I have two hall rugs around my bed which are working great now (we'll see what I think in December!).
This is above my bed. I have been collecting postcards of art for ages and love making my own little museum gallery on my walls!
This is my bed. It along with everything except my sheets (no joke) are from IKEA. Truth be told you actually cannot see the bed frame under there but this is the one I have - click here.
This is a really cool class hanging my mom bought in Israel on her last trip. It has different words like "life" and "luck" and "happiness" I love seeing it hanging in my window everyday.
My dresser - of course, it's IKEA. I love it, it's the first time I have a long dresser versus a tall dresser and I am enjoying having more surface space for knicknacks on top of it. Also blue is my color. Above it I have a collection of some of my favorite comics so I always remember to laugh!
These are great - one is a quote from Hellen Keller and the other is an advertisement saying how important art education is.
And there is nothing wrong with waking up to seeing David Beckham's body, right? Or falling asleep looking at it either!
I got funky with my window treatment! It's a shower curtain! And I bought some cute kiddie hooks to place it on a spring loaded rod. Cheap and different!
This is one of my pictures on my dresser. It's my sister and I at her Bat Mitzvah when she was 13 and I was 6. I have my graduation tassel on it since I haven't found another place for it yet.
This is the two of us at my bat mitzvah - this is a classic family pose! We even did it on her wedding day!
This is my beside table. The picture is my mom when she was pregnant with my sister and it's so special to me to have by my bed. The little notebook is my gratitude journal - I write 5 things I am grateful for each night before bed, a great way to end the day with some perspective! And my book, I am reading "Shades of Grey" by Jasper Fforde, one of my favorite authors.

Thanks for joining the tour!
