Girl's room

Today I'm posting pictures of my daughter's room.  When we first bought the house the room was just white, but of course she is very girly and chose pink for her walls.  We added crown molding and new blinds.  The furniture was my sister's bedroom furniture that I gave a fresh coat of paint.  I'm hoping at some point we can replace the doors.  She loves her room and is very happy with her room.

Here she is sitting on her Hello Kitty floor cushion that my sweet friend, Kate made for her.  You can go check out her fantastic blog over at Between the Toys.

In this picture you can see the cute fairy quilt my mom made. Above her bed is the canopy I made.  You can find the tutorial for the canopy here on my blog.

That's it folks! 

Bed Canopy

My daughter likes to read the Fancy Nancy books.  We read them every night before bed.  Just recently she has started comparing her room to Fancy Nancy's room.  She told me the other day that her room wasn't fancy enough.  I decided to make her a bed canopy to fancy it up a bit.  Of course her only requirement was that it needed to be pink. We bought bright pink tulle, a white boa and a quilting hoop.

I measured floor to ceiling and cut two pieces of tulle and sewed them onto the quilting hoop. 

Then I tied two strips of tulle onto the hoop for the canopy to hang from the ceiling.

I hot glued a feather boa to the hoop to finish it off. 

Here is the finished product.  I think she likes it.
