Today we spent the day cleaning Chelsea's room. If you know how Chelsea's keeps her room, then you know it was a task. I'm still not done! Still have to wipe down the walls, finish cleaning the floors, and organizing to do. I was talking to Frank, and said that we need to re-do her room as she needs a bigger girls room. New paint, new bedding, new curtains, new decorations. She's not a little girl anymore. :( Will be a sad, but exciting day when we do this makeover. Going to take all her little girl decorations down, and put them in boxes, to be stored away. She has this portrait in her room that was in my room when I was a little girl. Hence why it's a little dirty. I can remember taking this portrait down in my own room when I grew older, as I thought it was to "little girlish" and it was stored away till I hung it in Chelsea's room. My Mom had bought a portrait each for me, and my sister for our rooms. My Sister's was different than mine, but we each had our own. I think she may have hung hers up in her daughters room when she was little as well? I can't remember.
We have a rule to the room makeover, if she can show us that she can keep her room clean, and picked up, and organized until Summer then we will re-do her room. I think I am ordering her new bedding though, gives her an incentive to keep her room clean, and well, it's on sale....and sales don't last that long. ;) We are going to paint her room in a turquoise, and her bedding will be pink with zebra & damask print. It's so pretty! I am already looking on Amazon for decor!! Her new room will look so......grown up!!!
Little Girl no More.
