It's Done! A Happy Room for Greta
Saturday, we finished hanging a few things in Greta's room and are calling it a wrap! We started out with a school theme, but that sort of morphed into a plain ol' everything-Greta-loves theme--which is anything but plain, really. It turned out so sweet and she loves, loves loves it. I'm so excited to share […]

3/4 Painted Pink Walls in Greta's Room
We painted Greta's room this weekend! She has wanted a pink room ever since we moved here, and it seemed like something little we could do for her. Even though pink? I thought it wouldn't fit into our home's color palette, but as it turns out, it totally does. We all love her room now. […]
