Updated House Tour: The Girls’ Room

June 10, 2014 by Aliesha

The girls share a room and Jude has his own.  The girls’ room has not changed much since the last time I posted about it, but since I’m updating my house tour page, I thought I should include this room too.

The room is bright, colorful, and playful, just like my spunky girls.

Most things in the room were DIY (including the lovely “art” on the wall behind the rocker… ahem).

The girls’ closet is makeshift, since our house was built in the 1920’s and has very few closets.

I love their gallery wall.  We recently cleaned up the toy area and moved some things around so that this corner would be less “junky.”

We still have a changing table in the room, though I stole the pad off the top for Jude’s room.  We always change CC on the floor anyway.  Hopefully she will potty train soon and we can move the table out completely!

Vera is in a toddler bed now, and she does really well with it.

We have lots of children’s books.  This shelf contains only some of them; the rest are in the living room.

If you recall, this is the “before” shot of what this room looked like when we moved in!

Thanks for joining me today on a tour of the girls’ room!

Nursery Gallery Wall (& a Giveaway)

September 12, 2012 by Aliesha

I have been working on the gallery wall in the girls’ room, as you know.  I found some awesome pieces of art on etsy… and I’m spilling the beans today on She {hearts} It! 

I’m also giving away two 8×10 prints (winner’s choice), so definitely go enter the giveaway if you need some great art on your walls!

Custom Name Canvases

August 20, 2012 by Aliesha

My mom inspired me to work on this project for the girls… custom name canvases!  We used 4×12 canvases (you can buy them at Michael’s, JoAnn’s, or A.C. Moore with a 40% or 50% off coupon) and paint that matches the nursery.

It was really fun painting them!

After I finished painting the lettering, my mom outlined it with an ultra-fine-tip black Sharpie.

I’m thinking about making some more of these for gifts (or even selling customized ones)!
