Katie's Room

Katie's room is all ready! 

My awesome neighbor, Megan brought over the valence she made today. 

The valence matches the rag quilt Megan made for my baby shower.


I painted this shelf that was left behind from the previous owners of our house.  Sam and his dad hung the shelf a couple weeks ago.  My friend, Charee made the hand stitched wall hanging.  My Visiting Teaching partner and friend, Sarah, gave me the piggy bank, and the magnetic picture frame is something I made in Relief Society a few years ago. 

I saw these tissue paper pom poms on crafty websites in the past and found out that they're very simple to make.  I made several of these, but decided to just hang my favorite one above Katie's crib.


Online I discovered some neat ways to display barette bows/flowers.  The bows are so cute, why not proudly display them on the wall.  I gathered supplies that I already had (scrapbook paper, ribbon, tape, two old picture frames that I painted white) and made these: 


Well, I guess there's one more thing that I need to make the room absolutely complete... KATIE!!!
