I wish I had taken a before pic of this dresser.
It belonged to my mother-in-law as a child, so we were really happy to get it.
It was brown.
I made it white.
Hope that's ok with her.
I'm a little afraid that it's not.
Moving on!
I found these milk crates out behind my Uncle Sonny Boy's pump house. I said, "Hey Dad, I like those crates. Those are useful crates." He went and pulled them out of the poison oak and handed them to me.
Dad's are pretty cool like that.
Truth is, I could go on and on about this room.
Naw, actually I couldn't.
I think I covered every square inch.
Except for the CLOSET...
I painted and framed the photos back in Alabama.
They were the inspiration for the room.
Who knew there wouldn't be room for them in the end?
I put them in the closet.
Closets need love too.
Speaking of CLOsets...
Here's another one.
We were very fortunate to have TWO closets in this room.
Gotta love a toy closet.
Shoe pockets are a pretty genius idea for extra toy storage (not my genius idea).
I worked hard in here ya'll!!
This room went from this...
To this...
So there.
NOW I have blogged about every square inch.
I'm sure Charley will love every square inch too! You did a great job. I'm also happy to see that you are back to using "ya'll"... guess I will cancel that speech lesson I had planned for you. Good job Momma, Charley's a very lucky little girl!
ReplyDeleteI think I might have to move in! You did an awesome job! I can spend all day I think going through your posts! They are so fun and colorful!
ReplyDeleteI recently did a bench makeover and a room makeover (just painting) here's the links

That's not every square inch. You left out my favorite spot in Charley's room. Post a pic of the hideaway room in the back of her closet where her stuffed animals live.
ReplyDeleteI love the closets in her room. Very neat and organized. Didn't know you hung pictures in there, crazy pants. Okay I'll go with it.
ReplyDeleteMoving on!
