Life’s a Dance

I’m getting closer to having everything picked out for the kids’ rooms.  I realize now that I should have done all the shopping before he left instead of waiting until he was already gone–too many choices + shipping means I’m not going to get it done in time.  So I’m going to save it all and do it one day when he is at work.

I decided to scrap the border idea for E’s room.  The ones I picked weren’t the wall-cling type, so I’d have to worry about how it would come down, etc.  So I ordered two rolls of wall cling border–light pink & lavender.  Depending on how far that will actually cover, I’m going to do two stripes near the middle on at least two walls.  Plus I have the cork board I already ordered. I’ve been looking at lots of art prints and I think I’ve decided on this one.

Now I’m trying to decide between these two lamp shades.  Preference?

Now to Ben’s room.  I found this wall cling border, so I’m ordering it.

I can’t decide between these two lampshades. The coloring is a bit off in each of them compared to the border. I could stick with a white lampshade (I have that). Or a solid color one to match the border. But these shades are cute!

I’m going to attempt to find locally (eBay if not, I already have a seller in mind) some raffia grass skirt material that I can use for a valance in each bedroom plus over the top of the mirror in the bathroom.
