When we first moved into the Ponderosa our bedroom was the only
one that had a pelmet above our window.
A little odd I thought and when we decided to place new curtains all
through the home the pelmet came off. (YES
the pelmet was put to the side because I thought I’d need it again later on).
Fast forward a couple of months and the pelmet was painted
and then went into Jayden’s room to help store some of her books as an interim
solution.
Fast forward 18 months when Jayden’s room got a makeover. She liked the pelmet, however given the new
look, the existing pelmet wasn’t in proportion to her room. Solution?
Make another one. Enter my
awesome and wonderful husband - Gig!!
He had some old wood laying around in his shed and decided to whip up the pelmet one day (and he calls me a hoarder).

| Added some detailing for added effect |
We painted the new pelmet Aoraki quarter (the same colour as the architraves and ceiling in the room). I think it looks great and although it looks like it's hung a little too high, the idea is that Jayden will add her string of photo's below the pelmet just as she did with her old one.
Happy living peeps!
