It’s finished! And it’s a hit. My “babies” love their big-kid bedroom, and I’m pretty pleased with it myself. Other than the paint (“Daydream” by Debbie Travis) and a bit of fabric for the chair, the rest of the items were found or made. It’s decor on a dime — enjoy your tour!
E’s Bed — the quilt on the headboard was made by Great-Aunt Karen. The large crocheted blanket by friend Christina, the small one by myself. The chenille bedspread was a thrift-store-score.
Both bed frames were rescued and painted by Nana.
C’s Bed – the spread was a gift from Nana, and the picture frames handpainted by C&E’s brothers and uncles. Gingerbread men climber from my childhood. Crochet blanket by me, quilt by Great-Aunt Karen.
Bookcase (and matching miniature furniture in room) were built by the twinbit’s Great-Granddad Martin. They were originally in Aunt Emily & Aunt Elyse’s room, and have passed along to us.
Rocking chair was recovered by me. (First attempt, be kind. 
) Crochet blanket by a family friend.
I really love the window treatment. I sewed a simple valance, and then we made paper pinwheels using the instructions here — the paper is pages from an old book I found in a thrift store (“An Edwardian Lady’s Country Diary”) and instead of pins, I used some lonely stud earrings that had lost their mates or weren’t being worn any more.
And on the window sill, to tie it together, we put one more pinwheel.
Carriage and toyhouse built by Great-Granddad, latch-hook rug by a family friend.
