A Room Fit For A Princess

I know I posted pics of Ashley's room before she was born, but there was so much more that we wanted to do with it. For one, Chris kept saying, "The only thing I want are letters spelling her name over her crib." (He also suggested a plasma TV, but I really didn't think that request was necessary!)

Then, I was talking with Mor Mor (Grandma Chris, Oma...we still don't know what we are calling her!) and she suggested "Death By Toile!" Well, not really, but I guess you can never have too much toile. So, I ordered the fabric and we planned and schemed around ideas for the room.

Over two visits, she single-handedly made and hung the canopy and curtains for Ashley's room! I would come upstairs in the morning to find her in her silk pajamas on the ladder, using the drill! Honestly, I don't know how she has so much energy! But I am sure glad she does! Here is a picture of Ashley's "DESIGNER" room! It is absolutely FABULOUS!!! (Oh, and that's not a doll on the chair ... that's Ashley!)



Here is a picture of what the canopy looks like...it got cut off in the picture above!

How lucky little Ashley is to have such a talented grandma to create a beautiful baby "suite" for her. The love and time spent to make her room so special is evident. I am sure it was great fun to plan, create and to see Mor Mor on the ladder making her vision come to light. Beautiful.
