Big Girl Room

We recently moved Caitlin upstairs into a big girl bedroom. We painted the room and got her a twin bed. It is a princess room that hopefully she won't outgrow for a while.

This is her pink princess bed - bedding from Target. Eventually, there will be a custom headboard. The bedskirt is pink tulle and I think I will do the headboard to match that.


This is her dress-up area. The dresses hang on the shelf and the toy box holds the rest of her dress-up stuff.



These are on top of the shelf. A canvas of Caitlin as a baby and a picture of my dad holding her when she was little.



I love these fabulous nesting hat boxes that I got from The Land of Nod.



Rusty repainted all of Caitlin's dressers and we were able to reuse these. FYI - these were Rusty's furniture growing up. How's that for lasting furniture? Eventually above these, I will have several pinboards for Caitlin to hang her artwork and pictures.



Her closet - I tried to get lost of storage places for toys. I love the hanging shelves and matching storage boxes from The Land of Nod.





Caitlin playing on the pink shag rug I just got at Target today. :)



This corner eventually will be a reading corner. While putting together her bookcase I bought, I realized that two of the legs were cracked. So soon there will a bookcase in the corner and then Caitlin can sit on these floor pillows and read her books. Pillows from The Land of Nod. Do you see a pattern?




I love these frilly curtains from The Land of Nod. Yes it's my favorite new website!


The other dresser Rusty painted. It's being used a bedside table. Over it is a framed picture and poem called Three Dresses that talks about the three special white dresses in her life - blessing, baptism and wedding.

If I had unlimited funds, the furniture and bedding would have been from there too probably! That place rocks!
