Some Changes

So I have been doing some changes lately to the girls' room. One major one that Bristol was so happy about was that we bought her a new mattress. She was sleeping in her toddler bed before and was outgrowing it. So I found a sale last Monday for 60% of mattresses and packed the girls in the car and went shopping. We only got the mattress because eventually we are going to get bunk beds for them and you don't need a box spring for bunk beds. So for now she is sleeping close to the floor. We also painted her name pink to match the new curtains I made.

Here are the new curtains. It is kind of hard to see the pattern, but I think they are pretty cute. I gave Bristol two options of fabric to pick out and she picked this one.

This is a painting I did the other night for their room. It will be one of three that will be in a line. I took one of designs from the fabric of the curtains and blew it up in size to paint. I will show you more pictures when I finish the other two. I was hoping for a bigger size canvas, but they only sell 12"x12" as the biggest square size. I probably could have shopped else where but had a coupon and didn't want to spend too much. So when I have them all done you will have to tell me if they look like little postage stamps on a wall. I also figure when we get the bunk bed I will have to rearrange the pictures and there will be less wall space.
