Our little cookies bedroom

I am so proud of the creativity that has come out of me this summer.
At first I was soooo determined to paint our little girls room (at first she wanted pink, then decided on a different colour for each wall). I think the latter is the best idea ever! However, paint is fairly expensive especially to cover 4 different colours... so I came up with another idea.

She LOVES to draw and paint! Every time we have her (weekends) she colours up a beautiful piece of artwork and usually we store it away, or put it on the fridge (depending on the size of the paper... we have giant paper too). Now we are putting the giant drawings on her wall. We are going to cover her room in her artwork! So far we only have a few up, but it looks adorable already. She loves it too, she can admire her beautiful work.

This is the first drawing she did. We all draw together, its so much fun and amazing seeing her artwork skills grow.

For the second picture I could have taken a better picture... but too lazy now... lol


She is into butterflys right now, and it was super cheap to make then out of foam and fabric I found at the Dollar store!

Next was the door entrance, I wanted her room to be JUST hers. So together we put up her name and the pieces I made previously as a birthday surprise.

I found an old cork board at a garage sale for $1 that had previous kids drawing all over it... I just glued fabric to it to add colour... could have picked a different colour for sure but this one was free. Then drew large pink and purple poka-dots all over it and stuck butterflies on the boarder. She loved this too! Now immediately went to her box of treasures and thumb tacked pictures of our family.

 My last picture is just because I think it is sooo cute! She has selected ALL her teddies to sleep with her, (She never wanted to sleep with all of them before) But now she INSISTS. I love it!!!! There are double the amount of teddies at the foot of her bed too!use I think it is sooo cute!


 I still cant wait to paint her room, but that will have to wait a little bit... in the meantime we can all oggle her artwork. So proud!
