Spotlight On: Dane's Room

Now that Dane has a new room, we thought we would show it to you. And having never showed you his room at the old house, we thought we'd show you that too!

Old Room
The stripes are turquoise on white with a lime accent stripe on either side. Jackie painted the room entirely on her own, and it took around 40 hours of labor. The lamp and letters were painted by Jackie and the crib bedding, valance and changing pad cover were Jackie's first sewing projects. Monkey accessories scattered the room, matching the bedding, and maybe causing Dane's later obsession.

New Room
These are pictures without the furniture, to show off the paint job. We did not do this, it was a perk of the house. Dane loves waving at the monkeys, and he likes to touch random animals. The fourth wall is mainly two giant windows. It's an adorable room, but a little hard to furnish with bedding, curtains, nursery letters and the like. We're still working on situating the furniture just right to maximize space and the mural visibility - of key importance!
