What better way to celebrate Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly than to preview my new grand bebe's room. My daughter is not a lover of all things old as I am, however, she does love the cottage look and chose that for Miss Sterling's room. The walls are a precious light pink, the rug was the third one brought home, and all of the waterfall furniture has been altered in one way or another to be more conducive to a little girl's room. The chest with drawers setting on top of the little chest is actually an old Sear's tool box that has been painted for small items needed daily for a little one. All of the pictures have special meaning, in that the pink clothing was my daughter's coming home outfit, her first winter cap, little ribbon barrettes from a beauty pageant she won, and a picture of her in her first pink and white polka dotted swim suit.....all framed out in a vintage white button shadowbox frame. The oval picture is of her and me when she was just 18 months old.....I love how I actually look about 12 in the photo. The green matted picture is one she recently put together of her husband's keepsakes so he would have a place of honor in the room as well......The baby bed was my daughter's baby bed and was painted to match the other pieces of furniture......the chandelier in the center of the room has special little handmade porcelain pink roses adorning the entire piece.....I can't wait to see how long it takes before she tries to swing from it!!!! Want more pink today.....click on the pink button on my sidebar and enjoy all the other participants this Saturday......it's like a big hug!

Your over-trickiness, LOL! Too cute!
ReplyDeleteThat is simply a magical room, I can't imagine any little (or big) girl not loving that room!

A room fit for a Princess. Such a pretty pink palace Sterling gets to sleep in. I'm curious about the chandelier too. I suspect Mommy will have shuffled the crib around by then! Happy Pink Saturday and have a beautiful weekend.
