First we needed to strip wallpaper and paint. Here are the before pictures. I was NOT a fan of the wallpaper OR the pink! The curtains that they left, however, are staying, they're adorable :-).
So I stripped the wallpaper during naptime one day. And we prepped the walls and floor.
Then I found a toddler bed on Craigslist for $10. It was perfect except for the color and some scratches.
So we painted it. It was pretty simple and turned out so cute! We found the bedding on clearance at Target!
Then we painted the walls, green on top white on bottom.
I found a bunch of old frames and spray painted them all white. I'll post a picture when I get them all reassembled and hung up. I also found three white shelves at garage sales and paid a total of $6 for them. They'll go on the wall to hold her name and the frames.
Soon we'll purchase twin beds for that room and a dresser, but until then we're keeping it minimal so that she doesn't have anything exciting to do but sleep in there :-).
I can't belive I'm already decorating a big girl room! She's growing up too fast!

Thank goodness that a friend gave us their old crib so that we didn't have to buy a 2nd one! I am NOT ready to have a girl in a big girl bed!!!!
Anna's room looks cute though! Good luck with the transition!
I LOVE little girls rooms ... and Anna's is off to a fabulous start! You are doing an AMAZING job! That bedding is super cute!
I'm waiting impatiently for final pictures! :-)
