Madison's room

We finally can say that we have ONE room in the new house that is officially done.  Of course, it is the room of our sweet girl.  I have to say, it's probably my favorite room.  Kids rooms are so fun with bright colors and patterns.  It actually gets the most natural light out of almost all the rooms in the house (thank you Emily, for blackout curtains!).


She looks like this every time I come in after a nap.  Standing up so happy.
We filled holes in the walls, painted, moved her furniture in, got a new dresser (because we are using her other one in the master), and hung up pictures and a mobile.


She loves those owls!
I also had the gold frame and wanted to display some recent favorite photos from my instagram (@emwhited).  They are literally taped to the wall with blue painter's tape right now.

She loves looking at herself in the mirror.

I still want to add the date to the embroidery hoop under the flags.
Her room was probably the easiest one to finish because the only big thing we needed to do was paint.  Plus, since the walls were a light lilac color and the paint is paint+primer in one, we were able to do one thick coat and it looks fine (woohoo!).





Walls: Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray (Behr Ultra paint from Home Depot)
Dresser, mirror, white frames: Ikea
