big girl stuff
My good friend asked me to paint her daughter's big girl room. Bryn is a big sister now and is cordially- as cordially as a three year old knows how- passing on the nursery (the second set down- the bunnies and castle) to baby Colette. They chose yellow on yellow harlequin diamonds with blue rosettes between. And since Colette got the booties and bib, I made Bryn a Little Girlie Purse in the same color scheme too. If you can't tell, she is a little bit crazy for yellow. I casually mentioned that she could keep her chapstick in her purse and now she's crazy for chapstick too.

Katrina loves to carry lip gloss in her purse. Sometimes when I pick her up from Sunday School her entire face is covered in it. Obviously, we need to work on application technique.

Wow! So fabulous! Your work is, of course, stunning and beautiful, and the purse is so thoughtful and well-constructed (or, at least it LOOKS like it is.)

yay another colette!! how did they choose the name i am curious? collette was my maiden name and growing up teachers always thought it was my first name, so i thought why not make it someone's first name?? the room is lovely by the way!

The painting looks so good. I love blue and yellow together. That was the color scheme for my room through college.
