Work on the Baby's Room...

Yes indeed, most of the house 'work' has centered on the kitchen and the outdoors. However, last winter, my friend Tony spent some time here and did lots of work for me on the top two levels of my townhouse. One room was the Baby's room, so here are a few pictures of this 'work in progress' (the bones are now there: new paint (yellow and pink), remove the ugly closet doors, new floor (laminate from Lumber Liquidators), new furniture (found on craigslist), new rug (from C-Mart), new rocker chair (another great find on craigslist), new closet system (from the Container Store). Eventually, the theme will be 'realized.' The theme is DRAGONS. (and fairies, and princesses, and castles, etc.) There are already a few dragons in the room -- can you find them? The room just needs a finishing touch (window treatments, shelves, art -- all fit for a princess) -- which may not come for a while (will wait till closer to referral time...) The bunk bed is for me (so that I have somewhere to sleep when my folks visit and get 'my' room.) I do have a playpen from a consignment sale but am currently waiting before purchasing big ticket 'baby' stuff, like a crib, high chair, stroller, car seat...
