It's Fun to Be a Girl

When I was about to have Dear Bebe, my family threw a shower for me. Gift after gift was opened and many times I heard "well, we sure hope she likes PINK!" and "if she's going to live with Jillian she'd BETTER LIKE PINK."

Well, even if she doesn't, I got as much in her room as I could for now. Here are a few glimpses of pink:

Dear Hubs gave this rose print to me for Christmas one year while we were dating. I never thought I would end up using it in her nursery!

Instead of buying new we used an older dresser kept in the family and gave it a shabby pink rose makeover. (Decal, I wish I could paint like that!)

Pink accessories... Being a girl can be lots of fun!

Here is a chandelier brought home from a sale at Lowes by hubby. He likes to just buy things on clearance even if we have no idea how we are going to use it. My job is to figure it out, I guess! It worked great in her room. I added the pink feather tiara and gingham shades for that extra girly touch.

And last but not least I'm showing the result of one of my Bella Rosa Antiques T-Shirt transfers. I was happy with it until it was washed. Seems to me the transfer is a one time deal! It came out all wrinkly. Maybe I shouldn't put it in the dryer????

For now I'm going to hold off making more for a giveaway. I'll have to think of something else.
