The photo of tree #4 is ours and was just put up in all it's retro splendor this week. I jumped the gun, sorry Thanksgiving.

Here's the original source for the photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/denbow/3060778858/in/set-72157621767478656

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Janel. ;) You're right. She didn't correctly credit the source herself so you wouldn't have been able to find it otherwise. I've left her a credit request as well.

Which is why most parents keep them out of reach of children. Or only use them for display.

Melb,

I store the kids' toys in the bottom of the white wardrobe in baskets and keep some larger things in the closet. You can see a photo of it here.

KnittenKitten,

Thank you! The bed was thrifted from a warehouse type flea market in Southern Missouri. There were two headboards and I almost got the other one because I'd never seen that style before (for a shared room with twin beds in the future) but decided I didn't have the storage space.

JudiAU,
Thanks for your concern. Those vintage little people are on display but you can't quite see from the cropped photo. I keep them up high inside the large white wardrobe on a display shelf but don't ever let Ruby play with them.

Thank you, everyone, for the lovely comments!

Omoriala,
The play kitchen was thrifted, as well as the espresso maker. It's actually a real one.

The drapery fabric is just a lined vintage flat sheet.

Thank you for sharing, OhDeedoh!

Keri,
I used some screw in hooks and screwed them up into the bottom of the shelf above (make sure to center them so the hangers will fit) and then carefully placed a short rod in them and stretched it out just a touch. It's really sturdy.

Thanks for the feature!

Melichan,
I think she clearly stated the ones linked up to were not free but there were free ones out there.

I think it's a lovely selection of well designed printables!

I can attest for it being every bit as charming in real life! Katie and her family are so sweet and make so much room for creativity in their lives. She's an inspiration to me as a mom and wife. Seriously, the hankie garland is kind of genius.

So well executed! I imagine every kid invited made it to the party on the invites alone.

I love this idea! It's going on the list of potential Valentine's Day decor at our house!

I love the idea of a place to sit and do something meaningful. It gives value to letter writing and is another fun surface area to display some lovely pieces! Great idea, Mandi!

I love her sense of humor with the chalkboard drawings. Great room and glad to see this color story for a little girl!

Slightly unrelated to the post. I know that kid! That sweet family lives in my parents hometown and we used to hang out regularly! The internets are feeling smaller and smaller!
