so we live in an apartment but our landlord says it's ok if we paint as long as we repaint over it. before we moved in we painted their room because the walls looked really bad... but i decided since i painted their room already, i would dress up the room more. so recently i did a bit more, and have been meaning to post it!
i painted kathryn's name above her bed, and gave her some flowers. my plan was to do it in pink, because her "colors" i picked when she was born was pink and green, well, as i was mixing the paint and she saw pink, she said...NO purple purple...so, i changed it to purple.
i made their curtain a while back but just getting around to posting that too. it turned out really good.
kathryn has way to many beanie babies, so to consolidate to one huge 72 gallon container, i decided to put them on the ceiling. it took longer than i thought, so i never really finished, but what's the difference. they like it.
maybe i'll get around to painting daniel's name on his wall.
we'll be here probably another 2 years, so might as well make ourself at home.

How creative of you :) Love the purple. The beanie babies gave me the visual of meat hanging. I had to laugh. That is hilarious, but it's not Kathryn that has too many beanie babies, but her mommy.
no, you see, when we moved into this apartment, i gave them to her...they are hers now. they've been waiting for her for 10 years now, and they've become her property, she can do whatever she wants with them...until daniel gets old enough to choose favorites, then they must share them... but yeah, i did have too many at one point. a few people said that the beanie babies hanging from the ceiling freaked them out, but somehow i didn't get that vibe myself...lol. except for the unfortunate bears in the background...it really does look like the tie is around their neck, but really it's around their ears, i need to fix that...eventually.
That's hilarious...a beanie ceiling!!! I bet they love it. Purple name is cute on the wall...way cute curtains...lots of talent in our family...Hmmmm...maybe my clothing line/store idea needs to be open for family collaboration...more to come on that.
What a cute room. And don't you just hate it when your little ones have opinions of what they want :-)
I love the curtains, too!
Those curtains came out great. I love the paisley fabric. I was never brave enough to "personalize" and apartment. The painting on the Kathryn's wall looks really cute.
