Isabelle's Room Makeover

A little over a year ago I moved Isabelle from her nursery into a big girl room across the hall, painted the room, made a comforter and went with a monkey theme. We had ever intention of just letting the new baby sleep in the old nursery (redecorated of course). Once we finally got pregnant my opinion changed. Dave and I had secretly wanted to finish out part of our attic for a playroom for Isabelle and being that the attic was off of the nursery room it made more sense to move her back into the nursery. So for her birthday present this year we decided to give her a new room, new furniture and an attic makeover. She is so excited, here are some pictures of her as the room progressed I am going to have to take some pictures and post the finished product pretty soon. The room turned out so cute =)

Isabelle sleeping in her new room, in her new bed for the first time.. she was so tickled! When we told her about finishing out the attic I don't know that she could really imagine what that was going to look like, but once their was plywood on the ground and drywall she saw the light at the end of the tunnel. She walked it and started planning where she was going to put things, a doll house here, babies there, etc.. She could not stand it any longer the day there was a floor and the contractor gave her the go ahead to play in there she was bringing in toys. We had to take them out that night so the drywall people could come and texture but she didn't mind!

Now that the room is done she has a space that everyone loves to play in, well everyone except for tall people with a low roof it makes it a little hard =)
