The perfect spot

I tend to be a bit picky when it comes to displaying my crochet creations around the house. I don't want it to stick out from everything else so much that it becomes an eye sore. And I don't want soooo much hanging around that people immediately think (what the hell?) when they walk in. So basically what I do want is for it to look completely at home and at the same time continue to give me inspiration from day to day.


And by golly I think I have accomplished that with this piece. After staring at the naked wall above my bed for a few weeks. And refusing to put up a big tacky piece of "art" I stumbled across this easy (not to overly girly) design on Ravelry and inspiration struck.


Perfection


I am curious though, what do you have over your bed?

Nothing....yet....that is stunning Amanda! I love it. Have a great weekend. I finally got some more wool and will hopefully get a chance to finish the poncho this weekend. Very exciting, I love it.

Ooooh I like that! We have nothing over our bed. I've been waiting for just the right piece of art, but so far, nothing. I have a sweet collection of vintage paintings that I would like to put up though they really are a little girly...have a great weekend!

It looks great! I too have a window over my bed! And that'll do fine :)

That is a wonderful place, it looks right at home. I don't have anything over my bed. I've actually never thought about it, it isn't a focus point of the room because of the way it's placed. Maybe the next time we move I'll place something wonderful there.

Looks beautiful. I've been getting little snippets of your new place- looks like it's really coming together and looks so gorgeous! xo m.

Amanda you sure have achieved perfection. I have a painting above my bed. A friend did it for me....but it was hideous, so i covered it with some fabric that i love! No negative energy in the bedromm!
