but I was going to miss this:
They look so cute and cramped in that little bed. Time for a change. When we moved into the house their room had dark blue walls on the bottom and light blue on top. Here is the before picture:I really wish that I had a few better before pictures, I will try to get better at that.
And here is the after:
When I found the bedding on Amazon HERE I knew that it would be perfect and I was right. I wanted their room to be bright and fun.
Of course my favorite parts about this room are the DIY parts, like the clippe and bow holder I made (remember THIS post), or the adorable aqua vanity that I made over and posted about HERE
and the mirror and silhouette post from HERE
You might also notice that on each side of the curtains there is a little fabric canvas art that I made with some left over fabric. Here is a close up:
I was inspired when I found This post on pinterest
It was very easy to make, I just cut out the fabric scraps into different sizes and had my four year old arrange them on the canvas then just adhere with mod podge. I then added a small amount of glitter to a little mod podge and added one coat on top to add a little sparkle.
Oh and before I forget, just to let you all know, the girls STILL love to crawl into each other beds and go to sleep, they are getting so big, glad that they have a little more room now.
* Keeping it real: Not all craft projects turn out perfect. Why did I have so much scrap fabric in those bright colors? Well...I purchased some for the clippie project and then I thought I would try to make them a rug for their room. What started off looking like an normal fabric flower (the kind that you put on a clip or headband) grew and grew. I was attaching it to a rug loop base. I did several layers which took a long time and finally I was done. I cut off the remaining base and packed it away until the move. When the room was complete I put the rug down right between the girls beds, take a look...
Pretty cute right?
Oh, wait a second let me zoom out a little:
I think it MIGHT be a little small, LOL!! Oh well, I will come up for a use for it somewhere! Any suggestions?
