One of the exciting things about getting a little house for our family is that Allie gets to have a girly room (instead of sharing with Macsen.) While it was fun to have a challenge to decorate a gender neutral room, I am excited to include Allie in the process of designing her very own big-girl room.
Although, while I have been asking Allie for her opinion on all of the decisions, I just haven't been getting the answers I particularly want. For example, the only color she wants is PURPLE. Not my favorite color, but that isn't the problem. The problem is that there are like 5 patterns of fabric with purple in them in the ENTIRE world (a.k.a. on the internet) that I can tolerate and that Allie actually likes. Didn't realize that girl has such an opinion; she is definitely her father's daughter.
Anyways, after spending literally HOURS and HOURS looking for purple fabric online, at Home Goods, JoAnne's, and Ross Allie and I finally decided on 2 that we will be using:
Curtains to the ceiling and pillows for bed:
Pillow for bed and window seat:
And I now adore Fabric.com!!!
Seriously, learn from my mistake and if there is something particular you want in a fabric don't waste your time- just buy it from Fabric.com.
This isn't a sponsored post, but when I bought my fabric I used a coupon code and saved myself like $15...It's 20% off and free shipping with "sewsorry"
I can't wait to go pick out a pretty grey paint for the walls in her room now! And, Jamie, plan on painting something really cute for her room during Christmas break, k? :)

I love these prints!
Ha ha. I would love to paint something! And I didn't realize Trey had such strong opinions on decorating. :)
Gah! I so know. My girl is all about pink and purple. I'm so not a fan. We're both doing some big compromising to come up with something we can both love with. Those prints are fun. I love the idea of a gray on the walls. I can't wait to see how it all comes together.
Darling fabric choice. Thanks for the fabric.com tip! I am currently looking for curtain material for Elora's room.
