For the first time in her life, Keira has her own bedroom in this new house. I made her some new curtains from fabric she chose- (I did the old 'which do you like the best out of these five?' kind of choice-giving as she was looking longingly at shiny silver polyester fabric when we first arrived at the fabric shop.)

So, pale stripes it was (phew), and her room has a glass door to a courtyard with lavender growing, so the colours all go quite nicely, though that was coincidental.

Thank you to Cyndi of mermaids and moss. She kindly sent two prints of her beautiful original paintings. They've been squirrelled away into K's room so my goal is to find frames for them this week. 

I really like the print above, it's Her Walk Along the Lake. And Cyndi also sent a print of this butterfly girl.

    I would love a glass door leading into a courtyard of lavender. How wonderful. I like the way you captured Her Walk Along the Lake, resting quietly between a mirror and book.

    That’s such a great idea to narrow the choice to five – so it’s still a choice but it’ll be a good one. I’ve been working on making an art wall at our house and bought frames here: http://www.factoryframes.co.nz/shop/Photo-Frames they’re New Zealand made, delivered to your door, reasonably priced and the frames are really tight, which is something I’m fussy about. I’m a super happy customer so thought I’d pass it on.

    I’m so glad that you like the prints and postcard. And happy they’ve found a spot in such a pretty room. The glass door leading to a courtyard with lavender sounds so lovely. Congratulations on your new home!

    A room of her own – such a special thing. And I love those curtains with their subtle and pretty stripes.
