Kid Room - Part I

So we are trying to 'gender neutralize' Frankie's room since he'll soon have a roommate. We put Grandma Chrys to work when she was visiting because otherwise the painting would never get done.

We painted an accent wall 'herbal garden', a green I pulled from the curtains. Chrys then decided that the crown moulding would look good with a color added to it, so we went for a pumpkin orange. The ceilings in the room are just over 11 feet tall, so it adds some interest up high.


This view is standing in the doorway. Harper's crib will go in that empty corner. We need to pull it out of storage. We also have several things to hang on the walls still. All of that will come in part II.


Frankie in action! We moved his bed and dresser to try a new layout. I think we're all going to be happy with the room when it's finished! Thanks for your help, Grandma Chrys!

I love the animal alphabet! Where is it from? Also, I have the same polka dot suitcase.
