Sneak Peeky

Here is a little glimpse of Songbird's room. It's not completely finished, but here is a little sneak peek for ya!

Little vintage shoes I found years ago at an antique store. Love them! 

Songbirds bed (craigslist score!) and no worries, it may look a little plain right now, but I will be adding some throw pillows and such. The cover on the bed is actually another vintage treasure from my hubby's grandmother. It's a beautiful vintage chenille bedspread. 

The fabric bunting (banner? whatchamacallit?) I made using a mix of different fabrics, including Amy Butler.

Art work I made, inspired by this fabulous gal over HERE

Some pretty (and seriously full of glitter that I am certain we will have meandering around for the next 20years...) butterfly wings I scored at my local dollar store. They are hanging on some wooden letters/numbers that used to be in my boy's room. He said he wanted to give them to his sister and helped re-paint them. They were blue/dark blue and now they are purple/lavender. 

And there you have it! A glimpse into her room. We are purposefully keeping it pretty simple. No need to overwhelm our child who truly has never had her own anything. Her own room? her own bed? her very own toys? Yeah, keeping it simple is best. 

There is a table and chairs that we are working on to add to the room for impromptu tea parties and such. The table is from Ikea and the chairs were mine as a little girl. I will show and tell those soon too. 

And I am not sure why, but the color of the walls IRL looks most like the birdy art work pic. The rest are a little lighter, but nonetheless, I love the color!
