What We've been Up To

On Friday, I also was able to score some cute things for T's room. She is the happy new owner of a Peacock blue shag carpet. Its not showing too well here in the pic, but its really pretty and vibrant in person. Very much a "big girl" rug. Problem is, that in comparison to the old carpet, which was mostly a light pink, her brown furniture looks too dark. It looks much better with white furniture, as you can see here.

So, my granny's old furniture is slated for a reno job. It needs it anyway, b/c the finish on the dresser is so bad. Cardboard boxes had been filed on it at my parents' house, and the cardboard paper stuck to the surface. So, Leonors son will sand and paint it all for me.
The second big purchase was obtained from the container store. I could spend days in that store. Anyway, T has taken to taping photos of friends to her wall next to her bed...with like 9 pieces of tape each. I decided to get her some magnet boards (the pink flowers) and two dry erase boards, that's purpose is to hold photos and such. T is very excited about it all, and claims that she is now a cool girl. She even slept in her own bed last night!

Here's a quick shot of T playing twister, one of her favorites. She's playing with Princess Tiana, here.
And here's a pic of one of her latest purchases from Claires. For some reason, she's taken a shine to sleeping masks, and this one was just too cute. The eyelashes have glitter on them.

Too cute!
