we are re-doing hallie's room. HORSES. yes, horses. yeesh.
how do you make a cute little girl's room "horses" without looking like a western puked on it? or without going too overboard with the horses knowing that she will change her mind next week?
it's tricky, i tell ya.
her wants: a sky with clouds (whaaaa?), pictures of baby horses and a big horse.
my wants: organization. shelves. a place to put all of her many, many things.
what we did: blue walls, clouds handpainted by moi, a grouped-by-color bookshelf, stuffed animal net/hammock/thing, floating shelves, lots of bins and storage, a new toy chest, painted her headboard and dresser, added a mirror, put up a giant horse decal thing-y, new horse sheets, framed pics of baby horses from etsy and added a storage unit of drawers to her closet.
and it's done....mostly. i stayed up late lots of nights doing lots of stuff. and things are finally coming together. the headboard is still not on and the mirror is not yet hung up. and neither is the stuff animal net/hammock/thing. but it's really, really close.
and here are some pictures of the progress:

| i'm not gonna lie - it sucked getting all of these stickers off the dresser to be painted. and sanding the crayon? not my favorite. |

| book wrangling. |
 |
| color coding. |
