Please scroll down to the bottom to see the sources for items shown. As a reminder, this was previously my craft room which was already painted blue (Tropical Breeze by Behr for all those who keep asking). I wanted to keep the blue walls, despite the fact that were having a girl and the whole Under the Sea concept merged! Let's go on a tour led by Hailey, the occupant of this room. Since we made over Derek’s old bedroom set last summer, we were able to give all of Brielle's baby furniture to Hailey (though the crib came much later since we kept Brielle in it as long as possible)!

Brielle has a set that I did yarn wrapping on but MAN those took FOREVER to do! This time I once again tried the ombre look previously created for her growth chart and tried this technique on a set of paper mache letters to hang over her crib. They look fun and add a pop of color to a large block of blue so I'm happy how they came out! Even happier how well the Americana paint let me do the ombre technique so easily ... Continue Reading...
