Last summer, I let the girls choose colors and we painted their rooms. A had picked white, but after a while, she changed her mind.
Over Spring Break, the girls and I painted her room a limey green that we call "Day-Glo" mainly because A loves the sixties and John Lennon and peace signs. We bought some posters and frames for the walls and it is almost done.
I like the idea of letting the girls' personalize their space.
We decided to create photo collages.
The girls picked pictures:
We spread everything out on the floor so we could all work togehter.
Which was not an easy feat with Ollie around :)
We all had fun looking at the pictures we printed and selecting ones for the collage:

We had bought scrapbooking embellishments that went with our color and theme:
We were really happy with the finished products :)
It creates a nice effect on the wall:
