This is for my Nieces


Nieces. As in more than one. That sounds weird to say, but so cool! Anyway, I found this mirror while I was out and about with my Dad today. It is going to go great in my niece's new room. I'm planning on spending Easter vacation up in S.F. with my sister, and we are going to redecorate Gracie's room. When Lisa and Scott moved into their new house a few years ago, I helped them do Cameron's room. The theme was "Under the Sea" and I painstakingly hand painted waves all around the room as a border, with clouds on top. Well who knew one of Cameron's first words would be "truck"? So a few months later Cameron moved into a new transportation themed room, and my sister set to work on his old room for Gracie. When she told me she was planning on changing the theme of the room and painting over the waves, I about had a cow! It took me three whole days to paint those waves! So she graciously decided to keep them for the time being, and changed the room slightly from "Under the Sea" to "Mermaids". It looks cute, but with another little girl coming along, it's time to change to something a little more appropriate for two little girls. So Lisa decided on "Princesses". How cute will that be? Think pink. Think boas. Think rhinestones. Think girly! I love doing this kind of stuff, so I'm pretty excited.

Isn't it fun to shop for little girls? Your nieces will love their new bedroom and the mirror you're giving them.
