I actually think it's very attractive---would work in a traditional or eclectic or even rustic room--a bit of personality.

wrong. wrong. wrong. The endearing characteristics are gone: red ringlets, white pinnafore, eyelet bloomers, childlike face, innocent expressions and down-to-earth style. What next? Hollie Hobbie i...

I'd leave the walls white, but add a colorful element on the wall in the form of a large brightly framed horizontal mirror or circular mirror. Or in one large colorful piece of art or 2 companion p...

I found crib bedding separates at babies r us (no, not my favorite either). They had mix-n-match in solids, check, and pattern in several colors. It worked for our tight budget at the time and the...

I used one--light weight, not puffy or quilted, and tightly tied to the slats with ties too short for baby to get into his mouth. It was never thick enough to give him much height if he stepped on ...

Horizon 11 for me. Didn't mention that in my first comment. But they are all so gorgeous!

How gorgeous are these pillows? Just right for my new bedroom!

darling accessories...a chair for the rocker and those darling wall pockets to keep all the little doo-dads organized. How fun! Mod dots for me, please!

I have a great recipe for bran muffins that calls for buttermilk. The batter keeps well in the fridge so you can make it up in advance and just bake off a few each morning. I like to make the batte...
