Anyhow, this was her first room when we moved into our three bedroom new build in the summer. But although it was all painted and set up, I just wasn't happy. I now regret my choice of pink and I wish I'd painted (well Jamie had painted) it white and used her toys and pictures to add colour. So I think that will be one to add onto my summer project list. Her cot is now against the front wall of the house and I have added a few more little touches, like pictures on the wall, bunting, and my favourite her little shoes amongst her ever growing library. There is still much to do but here are a few snippets of her space.
I love Molly's crumpled nap face!
My current want for her room- vintage fawns. I love her storytelling tree behind them, each of the characters are puppets, I can tell we will have a lot of fun playing with these when she is a bit bigger.
Homemade Knits.
This was an old gold picture frame for £1, I painted the frame white and painted the mountboard with chalkboard paint.
These book ends were given to me by a nun when I was little. I love passing on my beautiful things to Molly,
Lots of nappies, a relieving sight for a mother.
Delicate feet.
There's a bit of a woodlandy toadstool theme to Mollys room that just seemed to happen after I bought her grassy rug pictured above. I'd call it her feature rug and I can imagine her playing with her toys on it when she is bigger which is why I bought it. On my to do list for Molly's room then
- Paint her new shelves white and put them up.
- Keep a look out for old crates to replace the shelves with to create a feature on her wall (I have been in search of some under £20 since the summer and just can;t find any so I'm giving up for now and putting up some flat packed shelves for the time being)
- Repaint the walls white.
- De-clutter.
