Char's Bedroom
10.02.2009
Inspired by this page in the newest Pottery Barn Kids, I decided to make some of these embroidery hoops with cute embroidery and felt on them. I had so much fun making them.
I sewed this doll before Char was born out of vintage handkerchiefs. I needed something to do while Chris was away on business, so I decided to sew.
Hand embroidered leaves and stems.
These are some cute stuffed animals. The bear I found at a thrift store and it is knitted. So cute. The two on the right I got at Old Navy. (Note: These two toys have recently had a recall on them, but since Char isn't playing with them, I decided to keep them anyway, because they were so cute. So no worries.)
Above Char's crib are three wooden frames from IKEA that I painted and put a cute patterned paper on the inside. The curtains I hand embroidered.
Here is another project I recently took on. Something had to be done about that horrible vinyl sticker with ugly type! Here are the before pictures.
Thrift Store find for only $6.99. Paint about $6. And the finished product...
Cute Princess character plates and tea set. Also a thrift store find for only $1.99!
Char enjoying the idea of being able to color all over the table. Her favorite thing is to have us write the letter "C". The green chair I also found at the Thrift Store for $4. Did I mention that it is a Pottery Barn chair, brand new, in pristine condition! What a deal!
What do you think? Do you have any fun ideas for decorating your child's bedroom that you would like to share?

Holy cow. That is the cutest thing I've ever seen. Seriously how are you so talented?!
Her room looks sooo cute... It is funny, I was just thinking about doing some hand-embrodery. (It is something I have wanted to learn)
Too, too sweet. Great job and perfect inspiration room.

What a cute bedroom! The embroidery hoops are beautiful and I really like how you fixed up the table. The talent, the talent!
I love the hoops and the chalkboard table and your hand embroidery. Char is lucky to have such a talented and hard-working mommy.
