I Enjoy Being A Girl

Sometimes being 13 is not all that great. But, with a retreat like this one in your favorite colors with cool furniture and your friends (alive and pretend) to keep you company, things could be worse.









Credits: Furniture is Plan Toys bunk bed painted white; Modella chest (one of my new favorites) and bubble chair (clever Monika uses a craft ball for these...they are usually very expensive!) from my friend, Monika; AG Minis desk, chair, and side table; CB2 ornament chair. Bedding and pillows are made by me. Accessories are Barbie; teenager and backpack from my work friend, Maria; erasers; cute characters, plant, and shoe from my friend Neomi; AG Minis; books and drink container from my friend, Oese; bulletin board from Michaels; re-ment; spray bottle lid, and Disney. Garfield is from my son's old toys...Garfield was one of his favorite comics/cartoons when he was little.


Funny, this is a scene that took me longer than any other I have ever done. I had to find all those pics to put up on the bulletin board. I remember what being 13 is like...though it was a loooonnng time ago. I had to make the silly pushpins by cutting pins and gluing on a bead...beastly, messy job. Tried to make the comforters look both downy and still hang right...lots of try and fail. I would have loved a room like this, especially the cool chairs.

  2. That was realistic, and very beautiful toys. It fit in a child's hand.
