January 2013: Courtney's Bedroom

Part of Courtney's Christmas was to get her room re-arranged and get her chair hung up. First we moved things around... and we all LOVE it this way! Her room feels bigger too!

 

Then, we went and bought the two bulletin boards and chalk board from Hobby Lobby and painted the frames on them and glued on the ribbon. We took pictures of her at her swim meet and hung those pictures on the bulletin boards. On the chalk board we wrote her current "best times" on different swim events and what the state times are so she knows what she needs to do to hit her goals. She loves it!

 And here is her chair... I have painted the wood bar white... so it looks even better now. The wood was stained a reddish color when it was made but the sales lady in San Diego suggested we paint it so it would match her room. She loves this chair and has read more in the last 3 weeks than she had in months. She is on her 3rd novel. It is the perfect place for her to sit and read...

So glad she loves her room. It is her own little place to escape from the world.
