At one of Ella's recent soccer games my mom and I were getting caught up on life and our friends. Last year we had given her best friend, Susan, a bedroom makeover. We were chatting about Susan's sweet family and I offered to give her daughter a bedroom makeover, who could use a little bright spot in her day. Sharing how we brightened up the room with wallpaper and patterns.

Adding Pattern to Plain Roman Shades- The Girls Bedroom Window Treatments and Window Seat
Recently we added color to two white roman shades that are in our girls bedrooms. When we moved into this house four years ago, I wasn't sure what I wanted and didn't want to commit to a certain color or pattern when we were just establishing the girls rooms. Their plain white roman shades felt like white sheets on their windows, too simple for the rest of their room. I finally went for what I have been wanting to do to their windows and added some pattern and color, sharing that below and information on their window seat cushion.

Shower Curtain Upgrade- Use a Curtain Panel Instead
Sharing two bathrooms with a curtain panel instead of a shower curtain and the best way to attach a shower liner. Often a shower curtain looks too small, not tall enough. Using a curtain panel instead of a shower curtain you get a lot more options in style and size. A glass door is always an option too, and we have glass doors on a couple of our showers. Our girls have a Jack and Jill Bathroom, or Jill and Jill Bathroom, and with two people being able to use a bathroom a frosted glass door would be another option, but I wanted to walk by and see their gorgeous shower room when it is not being ...
