This week has been great so far. Rather than just making plans and adding image after image to my ‘Inspiration Files’ (I know, I must set up a Pinterest account), this week I’ve actually managed to get stuff done. I’ve found a great print I want to order for our family room, made some progress on decorating Sophie’s nursery and tomorrow, I’m heading to Bunnings to buy some blue paint to freshen up a little bedside cabinet for Grace’s room. It feels good to have finally brought to life decorating ideas I’ve had floating around in my head for so long.
Today, I whipped up a simple little mobile for above Grace’s bed. Using four inch paper doilies I bought from Wonderland Room and some pink die cut flowers I bought from Gr3een, this little hanging string literally took me a few minutes to put together.
Once I paint the wooden cupboard tomorrow and sort out a bed head, the transformation of Grace’s room from ‘nursery’ to ‘big girl space’ will be complete. I’m so excited and can’t wait to finally share some photos of what I’ve made and bought with you all very soon.
You sound full of enthusiasm! I look forward to seeing the results x
ReplyDeleteThis mobile looks so pretty hanging up there in Grace's room. It's such a good feeling when things you've wanted to do start coming together. I'm looking forward to seeing Grace's room. I love the sound of the colours for Sophie's room too, they sound like a really pretty and modern combination. I hope you have a wonderful Thursday my friend. xx
ReplyDeleteOh Amanda, I am so sorry! I have been so busy just trying to stay on top of everything I have not had a chance to pack the bedhead.

So sweet , looking forward to more pics. I went over to the Wonderland Room (oh dear thats a 'dangerous ' shop to visit, I will need lots of time to calm down, & go through it to see what I 'really need' )

ReplyDeleteHi amanda, that looks so very pretty, you have been busy!! I love weeks like that; havent had too many lately, and I can remember those days of having a newborn and not having much spare time to do anything at all ... But you are getting lots done, well done! I meant to reply to your comment a few weeks back about the vintage embroideries. I do scour op shops for them and have found some really gorgeous ones, i also have a couple that belonged to my gran who passed away last year. I just get so excited when i find a special one, but they are very few and far between!!!
ReplyDeletehope you have a great weekend and that you are getting lots of sleep!
