{a big girl's room}

I finally finished Eliza's big girl room.
  She really wanted a yellow and pink room.  Those are her favorite colors right now.  As we all know that can change...sometimes quickly.  I wanted her to love her room, but did not want to spend a lot of money on it, especially if she changed her mind.  We also did not really want to paint her walls over again.  We REALLY needed the red dresser to go in her bedroom and so it became a red, yellow, and pink color scheme.  This was a little bit more difficult to make work, but I think it turned out sweet and most importantly she loves it!  I just need to change out the pictures in the frames with pictures of her as a big girl!  There was a lot of painting involved in this room.  I really don't like to paint but then I find something I love and have to redo it or it is such a great price and all it needs is some paint.....it continues on and on.  Someone found the desk for me for ten bucks and I painted it cream and distressed it and used gold rub n buff for the metal.  I painted the dress up mirror and the headboard (twenty dollar find) and the side table....oh and the little frame.

The last picture is of Eliza...wow what an outfit!  Let us break it down shall we?  She is wearing a dress up hat, her regular clothes, a dress up dress, her potty watch, and tennis shoes with no socks.  Her baby and blanket are ready for take off.
