No Ty Pennington in our house, but the grand idea of revamping Isabelle's bedroom into a big girl's room came to fruition in the past week and in time (barely!) for the big reveal on Christmas Day! For days she has strolled obliviously past a door that has been tied shut with suprisingly very few attempts to get inside.
One of her requests from Santa this year was a bed, but Mom and Dad decided to get it for her instead. It started with the bed and mushroomed from there into "The Project". A beautiful chandelier that we bought in Montreal inspired the colour scheme for the bedding and the rest of the room. Other highlights include an awesome dollhouse from Gran and Grandpa, complete with a family of dolls and furniture, plus a giant mirror and ballet barre in case our little one feels like strapping on the pointe shoes and start training for Juilliard. New decorations on the wall full of princesses and castles, old school photo frames with winter family photos and a huge net hanging behind her bed, everything a little girl could want, except maybe a pony (her plush rocking horse will have to suffice). She also has a new bookcase and 3 drawers of toy bins, the question is will we ever be able to get her out of there in the mornings?
She loved seeing her new room and has already declared the dollhouse home for many of her animals and dolls. But don't try to sleep in her bed, it hasn't taken her long to be territorial about it, "Don't sleep in MY bed!".
