THE ROOM

I have been meaning to post pictures of the masterpiece that is Agnes's room. However, when I thought about going to take pictures, I realized it was a mess and did not feel like cleaning up. It did get cleaned for my parents and my mom took pictures (big surprise) and posted them on the Terrill blog. In turn, I stole them and am posting them here. So here it is for all of you non-Terrill Connection readers.

FAQ's
Yes, David and I did it ourselves.
Yes, it took too long.
No, I do not regret spening too much time painting it.
Yes, I made the stencil and did the dots by hand.
No, I did not come up the whole idea all on my own.
Yes, I found someone up here to do Agnes's handprints like I have of the boys. Hooray!
Yes, I loved Strawberry Shortcake as a child.
No, I did not make the quilt. DL's grandma did.
I actually have different bedding for her room, but have not out it on yet. Which is pathetic and another reason why I have not posted pctures. I kept thinking I would actually finish the whole thing.
Thank you for joining us on this tour. Please come again!

It's ADORABLE. I especially love the red dots contrasting with the pink & green. Even if it wasn't your original idea, way to execute!

I LOVE the room.....and I have to give JT a shout out! I love his new CD. I have it on my ipod and workout to it daily. If you have had JT on your side bar for awhile and I have already commented on how much I love him, please ignore my comment!!

You always have done the most creative and wonderful things. I'm glad you still got it! (even with 3 kids:)

FYI
I got the idea from a Pottery Barn Kids catalog, but that room was 2 shades of lavendar with white dots all the same size.
The biggest problem is that Henry wants us to do his room now. To look like a ship. I am not sure how that will play out...

I can't believe how cute that turned out! The dots and the banner are perfect. Great job! I'm always happy when those projects get finished!
