A few weeks ago we were discussing with Riley what to get her for her birthday. We came up with the idea to re-do her room. She had the owl theme since before she was 2. Now that she was turning 6, it was time for an overhaul. We all agreed we weren't painting the room, as we just did it a year and a half ago. Riley was able to pick out the theme on her own. I sent an email to all of our family suggesting that they can buy some cool new big kid items for her room. It was a success!!! For her birthday, everyone bought stuff for her room. No toys, no clothes, just awesome items to add to her digs.
In case you are unable to remember what her room looked like revisit this blog: http://www.clarkfamily420.blogspot.com/2012/03/little-color-goes-long-way.html
And here is her new room now!
Mommy and daddy bought the bedding and curtains (including the tie backs) and the nightlight.
Juh-Juh and Gramps bought the rug and bean bag chair.
Babcha and Pop got Riley the lamp and throw pillow.
Aunt Jenny and Keira got the lights.
Aunt Laurie and Uncle Matt bought the wall art hanger and collage board.
Aunt Kelly got Riley a homemade collage board, her new cool big kid initials and the wall decals.
She made out like a bandit and Jeremy and I didn't have to put together any toys! BONUS!!!
Hopefully this room theme will last for another 4 or 5 years!
