Mimi has wanted some of her baby things as she calls them
put away NOT given away this she was very clear on....
I love all these sweet little things...
so we started last night on a slightly less baby room re-do.
These are all before pictures I guess I just wanted one last look
Its hard when she's our last baby at 7 1/2
and we have a 12 1/2 and soon to be 17 year old
time flies and now I know too fast.....well we made a deal
to use only what we had....and heres what we found.
Remember my garage sale butterflies.....
and a friend had given me a sheet of reversible owl paper
and we had these fun frames that I had already painted
so we framed it....
moved her dresser so she has a little vanity area now
perfume only....she has started a little vintage
avon bottle collection, she has 3 now.
On Sunday her Grandma gave her a quilt she had made
out of scraps....I wish I could have picked up some of this
sewing capabilities!!
remember this room that we just did in
August well it got a re-do also Will share that tomorrow
we have been busy!
Being busy is good, especially with those horrid temperatures you've been having!
ReplyDeleteMimi must be pretty happy with her room re-do! :-)
Mimi is a lucky girl to have a mom that listens and then makes it happen...it looks great! xo
ReplyDeletei like the framed owl paper. very cute.
ReplyDeleteSheri she's spoiled and I'm bored...If only George would play cards with me sometimes!!
ReplyDeleteMy baby girl is about to be 41..... Hang on to them. They grow so fast. They are 5 & before you know it they are middle aged.
ReplyDeleteGreat job!!
Marilyn
Great owls - they are really in style this year.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I love doing with what you have. Makes it as fun as shopping only you have to think outside the box!
ReplyDeleteLove the room!
Hugs, Lisa
The room look gorgeous! The owls are sooo cute! I am sure Mimi will be very happy. Don't they grow up quickly. Now India's most un-favourite colour is pink!...sniff..sniff.
ReplyDeleteOh the grown up room looks great! How cute that she is already a collector, that is a great collection for a young person because they can be picked up so inexpensively!
ReplyDeleteCarol
What a charming room for a young lady! You've done an excellent job, and, yes, it is so hard watching our "babies" grow up.
ReplyDeleteMandy
Mimi has good taste. I love the owls especially!
ReplyDeleteShe is starting her styling young!
Hello! So lovely room! I love!!! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWauw, that looks just gorgeous...kids are growing up fast!
ReplyDeleteI have an 11 year old girl and a 13 year old boy in the house :-)
It's fun and storm all together!
Mimi and you both have some great ideas. I'm sure she's going to love her "new" room. I love her little vanity with the avon bottles. Such a cute room! Diane
ReplyDeleteI do like Mimi's new room. I'm glad she wanted to keep her old things ... that's very sweet.
ReplyDeleteI was shocked to read that Marilyn's daughter is 41 and now middle-aged! I'm 40 and I'm is denial I think! Ha.
I love everyone's comments on this post. They're all quite sweet.
It looks really great - I love all the sweet little details. Especially her vintage bottles!
ReplyDeleteHi; It sure looks nice and cosy. Love the butterflies on the wall.
ReplyDeleteYes little babies grow up and soon she will be a little teenager with lots of perfume, make up etc...
We had a lot of theme's for our girls room during the years;
dolphins room, flowers-, chinese-, horses-, pinkroom,erc etc.
Now they are 17 and 20 their rooms are; coffee and milk colours and really chic, ha,ha!
