We let it slide when Jakie was born, reasoning that since he was a baby it didn't really matter (even though a talented friend of mine had offered to redecorate it for me). But when Grace was born, we realized that Stevie and David would need to move into that room so that we could have the bigger room for Gracie and Jake to share. And while a playful fluorescent green with polka-dots might be alright for a little baby, it was definitely not alright for two VERY BOYISH little boys. So changes were made:
We found the wall color on the "oops" aisle at Home Depot for a cool $7. We found some little wall lamps and a great sun-shaped ceiling lamp at IKEA. Add on the glow-in-the-dark stick-on stars and planets we had from our last house and voila--we created a fun little solar-system on the ceiling.
I'd still need to get some new bedspreads for their beds, and maybe a monogram and a fabric bookshelf to hold all their books for night reading. At least it's (mostly) done now.
