We are now on to "Operation Big Girls SLEEPING in Big Girl Room" :)- in process.
I loved working on this room, not that it's anything special, but I enjoy doing fun kid spaces much more than adult ones. I preferred this to working on the nursery too because I actually know the girls now, so I got to tailor it a bit more. This was a little tough because this room was once an attic space (I think) and it has not been updated in decades, not to mention I had a small budget (for 2 people), but overall, I am satisfied with what I was able to do with DIY, things I already had, giveaways, and clearance items from Target, Ikea, & Overstock.... Ryan may disagree ;).
In typical me fashion, this room can be described in
too many ways; modern geo with a touch of rustic..and cloud themes.. I
just looved these cloud & sleepy raindrop pillows, and had to
incorporate them (tried to tie in poms & dot sheets for "rain"-
maybe too much of a stretch:)). All to say, they were $45-$60 on ETSY,
and so I decided to make them for free using an old white pillowcase,
felt, and batting. I am no master seamstress, I only say that to
encourage you that it was not hard at all, and totally worth the DIY!

My "high shelf" with my special vintage books. I just cut up a US map for a little background paper on the shelving.
A small washi tape gallery wall with the girls recent art work. I'll probably hang my, ahem I mean, their, favorite dresses on the ladder.
