Making our house a home: Charlotte's big girl room

Charlotte is movin' on up! We'd been using the big girl room move as incentive to ditch the diapers, and since she had a bit of progress on the potty training front over the weekend (can I get a HALLELUJAH?!?!), Miss C was finally able to move into her new room.

This was formerly our upstairs guest room and that furniture was relocated to the basement guest room and now a nice and cool guest oasis complete with a full bathroom away from the craziness that will be three little girls. I had a lot of fun decorating another girly room and loved going into my "happy place" to enjoy little breaks in the week that it was finished but vacant! 

I knew we wanted a daybed to leverage the room's space and layout efficiently and love that we have a trundle to allow for future sleepovers or to host guests for short visits. I didn't have plans to paint the room because it was a nice neutral linen color, but when we realized it was one of the only rooms we've left with untouched walls and the touch up paint we thought would work didn't, this 29 week pregnant woman took a half day off work and we went a light shade of lilac. Considering we hear that Charlotte's favorite colors are "pink, purple, and yellow!" on a daily basis, we knew she'd approve. The pom poms were a fun little project that I'd totally do again and recommend; although they include a couple of her "not favorite colors" (aqua and white), she loves them!
