The girls' room

The curtains are finally in and the girls' room is complete. Well, almost, truthfully the inside of the closet is still not totally organized. Anyway, here are the pictures with the closet doors shut! The room is a little cluttered and I wish I could go in there and remake the beds and reorganize their stuff, but I want them to take pride in the way they keep their room. As long as it is picked up and clean basically, I am not going to fix it. So they make their own beds now.


Genevieve's bed: Her room has always been decorated around her Monet pictures. The colors from the few paintings I chose were brought out in the mats and then in the bedding, and, likewise, the themes of flowers and gardens were brought out through the butterflies and flowers. Her part of the room is still decorated that way.


Hannah's bed: Hannah's room has always been decorated around the Degas paintings of ballerinas. Similar to Genna's, it has colors and ballerinas from the paintings throughout her bedding and decor. In the corner, we have made a reading corner with pillows, stuffed animals, and a book shelf chalk full of books. It has a lantern hang above it and Hannah's quilt that was made for and given to her as a baby on the wall.


At the foot of Genna's bed is this toy box that I found at Target. It just matched so perfectly!


So that is their room! They love it and surprisingly share a room remarkably well to date!
