We got her room complete in time for her birthday.
The desk is painted, the hardware is changed, the shelves are all in and we've got her organized. We went through all of her stuff and stashed the things she (or I) really want to keep but didn't want in her room. We also got rid of all the things that she was holding onto that she really didn't want to keep anymore - mostly things that special people had given her and she was scared to give away for fear she would hurt their feelings.
We also had a long talk about how nice it was to see her floor.
I don't know for sure, but I think she really likes the clean room. She has kept it clean for almost a week now (with a tiny bit of help from Mom) and is spending time in there making Skype calls to her MurMur and reading on her couch. Hopefully, we've gotten a little bit closer to maintaining some organization. Of course it helps when you are set up for success. Now, she has a place for everything.
In Part 1 I showed you what her room normally looks like. Now I will show you what we did.
Drum roll please.......
The couch got thrown in her room at Christmas to make room for the tree, but she loved it so much it had to stay! |
New desk set up. Still working on finding a new bed frame... |
I can't believe how much she's grown up. From Barbie's and My Little Pony's to iPod's and laptops...
