Big Girl Room

It feels good to be back blogging again.  It had really been too long.  Where does time go?  Time has really been flying by in our household.  My baby just turned two.  I can't believe this!  Do you know what this means?  I got to design a big girl room, I got to design a big girl room, lalala!!!!  Can you tell how excited I am.  I love designing rooms, especially bedrooms for little girls.  I started buying items to decorate this room the end of last summer when I fell hard for the Target's Love and Nature Collection for girls.  I am not one to purchase a bedroom collection, because I usually love to design the theme and decorations myself.  However, this theme was so cute that I couldn't resist.  This weekend was a very happy weekend for me because I finally got to decorate the room.  Thanks to my very patient and handy husband for all his help.  I have these beautiful dreams of what a room could be and he helps to make it happen.
Such suspense, I know you cannot wait to see the room.  This room that was once an office decorated with diplomas and John Deere is now sweet and girly.  Take a peek...

                                                                        
Not bad for a day's work:)  To view additional photos of this room check out my Flicker photostream.

Going Green!


This afternoon, with a couple of sleepy girls snuggled in bed,  I found myself with a few quiet hours.  It was too hot to do much of anything outside, so I debated starting any one of the many household chores that had been calling my name.  I decided instead that I would have an afternoon of jewelry making.  I cleared off my ten person dining room table only to cover it once again with all of my jewelry making supplies (a mess that would need too be all clear before my little darlings would awaken).  It was only after I had completed these first two bracelets, featured below, that I realized I definitely had a green theme going.  What can I say, I do love the color green!

Jasper Blossom
This first bracelet is more casual and has a bit of an earthy appeal.  The glass beads look great with silver accent beads.  However, I feel that the green Jasper, my favorite, makes this bracelet complete.  



Elegantly Emerald

This second bracelet is more elegant and could definitely be worn with a dress.   Although, I have to admit, I rarely hesitate to wear blue jeans with my pearls.  Take a look, I believe that this bracelet speaks for itself.
