A room in the works...

Since we're getting on a plane in a little over 24 hours, I wanted to share with you some photos (that I know a lot of you were waiting for)... photos of the ROOM! Now it's not 100% complete (because I want to get input from my little one(s) when the time comes), and because it's possible we could even bring home boys, in which case, "see ya later matroyshka dolls"! But, I did want to give you a little "window" as to what the little one(s) will be coming home to. I created almost everything that you see... whether I painted it, refinished it (yes even the hideous 'stoplight' yellow dress was repainted a turquoise color), sewed it, glued it, or hand stitched it.... it was all created with love for my little one(s).

Pin It!
