daughter's bedroom

Hi Christine,

My name is Cara I found your blog through Michal's. I love to decorate my home, but I am at a loss as to what to do with my almost 3-year-old's pink bedroom. I am planning on purchasing a "big girl" bed soon. If I sent pictures, maybe you could help with some ideas? (I loved the idea of painting the base boards, but am a little hesitant only because we will have to sell our house in 2 years, because we are in the military). Thanks and I hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Cara,

Ever since I started having children of my own- I have had a new love- decorating childrens' rooms. Keep posted- I'll have a few different posts to respond to your question. I would love for you to send pictures. I think to begin with, you need some inspiration- for instance- a fabulous piece of art- a great quilt- something to be the focal point fo the room, something to build your room around. The photo is one of an artist's child's bedroom- her name is Jennifer Judd McGee- I love her work. What do you think? Any particualr interests of your daughter to work around? Keep posted- this is just the begining. I would also like a floorplan of your daughter's room.

Thanks,

Christine
