A girly room

I am not a particularly girly girl.  I wasn't as a kid either.  Maybe that is the result of being the middle girl between two brothers, or maybe it is just innate.  Maybe that's the reason why having a daughter scares the bejesus out of me.  I don't know that I'm cut out to be the mother of a girl.  I've got the boy thing really well figured out.

But darn it, I have some great ideas for decorating a girl's room. 

The color scheme/theme is black and white zebra print with pink and hot pink accents.

Something like this:

That crib set is $600.  Thanks but no thanks.

This set is more in our price range:

We'll have one of the twin beds out at the same time as the crib and luckily this set matches the crib set.

I could also just do zebra sheets and a hot pink blanket.  Basically the same and cheaper.

How awesome would these curtains look in place of closet doors?

And this valance over the window?

I am just in love with the hamper.

This is what I'm thinking for the walls:

This totally cool zebra print

This memory board

This bow holder. 

(Side note: Bows? Terrifying!)

And these decorative wall pieces

When we were picking stuff for Spencer we went totally baby.  Then we had to re-do everything when he was no longer a baby.  We stuck with the jungle theme, but bought new bedding, art work, etc.  This time around, boy or girl, I am doing something that goes from baby to beyond.  I should totally trademark that name and start a design website called From Baby to Beyond.

And yes, I've got the boy room all planned out too.   You'll see soon.
