Instead of transitioning through the toddler bed phase in a year or two, we decided to save a little money and go right to a twin size bed. I bought sheets and a duvet cover that I felt could grow up with him so we wouldn't have to pour more money into decorating again in a couple years. And I think it turned out pretty good.

GW,
ReplyDeleteYou have such a fabulous talent for design! There is a dynamic and lively feeling I'm gifted with when I peek into Dashell's new "big boy bedroom" ...and it is not-at-all "obvious" how you have made this fit together. Somehow, however, you have courageously served up a compelling combination of plaid, stripes & paisley that doesn't stand a chance of becoming tired-looking. What is really clever, is how you've maintained sufficient subtlety that I can handily envision slipping off into a dreamy and restful sleep-adventure.
This seems to stretch well-beyond brilliance ...and it truly inspires me. Your deft creativity and foresight have manifested a wondrous and inventive environment where broad diversity co-exists in harmonious concert...
I have a sense that it will continue to elicit Dashell's tireless, imaginative enthusiasm.
Bravo, Sis!
