Quite a long time ago, I said that I might post pictures of Millie's room. I never did, and as time went on, I decided it probably didn't matter to most people anyway. But I did have someone ask to see a pictures of it just this week, so this post is for Katie. :) Also, I am glad that I have a reason to record it, because I realized that I didn't have many pictures of it, and I think it's my favorite room it the house. It has changed in lots of little ways over the past year and a half. Many of the things in it were lovingly made by family members.
Here is the view from the door:
Millie's crib is the crib that I had when I was little!
Bed Set (not all is shown)--Brandon's mom
"AMELIA", "A" (hanging from shelf), and little plaque on shelf--Brandon's sister Heather
Blessing Dress--My mom (made from vintage pillow case)
Pillow--Me
Tent--Brandon and Me (My mom helped too--it was made from an old sheet from her wedding and was Millie's Christmas present. There once was a rocking chair there. Now it's hanging out in the guest room)
Curtains--Mostly my mom, a little by me.
Cowboy hat--Fort Worth Stockyards--a fun memory. Millie thinks cowboys say "uh-oh" instead of "yeehaw."
Dresser--My old dresser, with repainted knobs
I painted the boxes on the ferris wheel (a cheap find), and crocheted the round thing (doily?) the piggy is standing on (mostly I just needed some place to put it). Brandon made the lamp out of an old seltzer bottle for me when we were dating.
Book Case and hanging shelf from Ikea. We painted the baskets so they would be more fun. Quilt in bookshelf--my mom. We also received many other beautiful quilts from my mom/aunts, my cousin Katie, and a friend of Brandon's family.
Embroidery Hoop decor--me
Bow holder--an old frame, repurposed.
Changing pad cover--my mom
And there you have it! My favorite place in the house!
