Abbi's new room

A few weeks ago, Jon went to Japan on business. He's been traveling a lot lately, but for some reason him being on the other side of the world for a week was different. I needed a project. So, I decided to paint Abbi's room. We'd been talking about it for awhile. Her room was a boring tan color...not girly at all. So she picked out the color and we got busy. Here's the finished room!
We went to IKEA (one of my favorite stores) and got these shelves with tubs to replace her toy box. Such a wonderful change! Her room has stayed clean since we made this change. We started babysitting for our Youth Pastor and his wife on Wednesday mornings...Abbi and I were totally inspired the first day we got to babysit. Their baby girl (Ella) has the sweetest room. We loved her sheer curtain in her room and decided to copy it. Abbi's curtain has flowers embroidered on it. The wooden letters that spell 'Abbi' on the wall were also inspired by Ella's room. Abbi painted the letters white and then put a coat of sparkly Modge Podge over them. So feminine...we love her new room!
