The English Garden Suite! at our house...

Ruby & Sienna's bedroom is ready, thanks to my friend Julie! Yesterday she helped me with the finishing touch, "The Red Thread" verse on the wall. And, Jeff did a wonderful job putting the beds together, hanging pictures, etc.. It was a group effort! I am so pleased with how it turned out. I also owe a huge thank you to The Pearl for giving up her big bedroom for her little sisters. She enthusiastically moved next door! Now all we need is precious Sienna to be home safely in her new bed! I look forward to some very special Tea Parties in here!

I ordered the "Red Thread Verse" from Vinyl Attractions. I could have never done it alone. But, with Julie's help it was pretty easy to apply. Thanks Jules!!!

What a beautiful room! It's really stunning, I love the poem on the wall and the little space for the table and chairs that look like they were designed for that space. I'm not a frequent commenter, but am a frequent reader, and just wanted to say congratulations on your new daughter. It looks like 2010 will be a fabulous year for your family!

What a beautiful room! It doesn't get prettier than that!

Mommy said...

Beautiful! Beautiful! That is very similar to what our girls room looked like before the renovation. Now I'm working on a nursery and a little girl room at the same time. Sharing a room didn't work out for my 3 year old and 1 year old (from China). MeiMei didn't know how to sleep on her own and Little Miss is a very light sleeper. Bad combination for sharing rooms. LOL! I still hope to have them together at some point...but not right now. ;-) Momma needs to sleep. It is beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

What a lovely bedroom you have created for your two little girls. I think I'd like to move in myself, it is so peaceful and feminine and pretty!! I too am looking forward to 2010 and what it will bring and was glad to put Christmas behind, though it was nice. Someone was missing here too. All the best Diana.

I love this room! My favorite part is that delicate chandelier! Everything is so so sweet!

Mimi's Toes said...

This room brings chills to me. I was in tears looking at the beauty and purity in it. I love the flowers, verse and eveything about it. Sienna will feel like she's in a castle when she arrives.

Ruby's Fairy Godmother said...

That is an absolutely beautiful bedroom....perfect for your two youngest daughters!
By the way, how exciting for the Pearl to go to China with you all!
Thank you for sharing this sweet room.

The room is just beautiful! Very nice job. How sweet of Ainsley to give up her room. What an awesome big sister!!!

TanyaLea said...

I'm in LOVE with this room... it's perfectly girly in EVERY way. And the Chinese Red Thread verse on the wall...LOVE IT!!! Are the beds by PBK?? I think I was looking at the same one! And I absolutely LOVE the chandelier...just STUNNING!!!

Ainsley is such a sweethart for giving up her room for her little sisters... I can't wait to see a 'feature' of The Pearl's room, too!! :)

Oh how exciting!!!! I can't wait to get started on Khloe's room. Hopefully next week, as her room is our current guest room, and we have a houseful of family arriving on New Years Eve!!

Jenny said...

Oh my heavens! May I move into that room? It's just perfect. Can't wait to see both beds occupied...

Sharon said...

SO perfect....it is another reminder to me of how BLESSED this little girl is to be part of your family and be treated like the princess she is!!! I know you feel JUST as blessed to be her parents.

Mei Mei s and Mayhem said...

What a stunning room!! Who did all the painting?? what a special place to play and sleep!!

Yoli said...

You guys have done a beautiful job. I have to laugh because everyone who sees my girl's bedroom thinks it is made up for a boy. It is chuck full of dinosaurs, maps and spaceships. I need tips from you.

Twinkletoes said...

Absolutely gorgeous! This should be a photo in a magazine! It looks like a bedroom every girl will dream of! That was so kind of Ainsley to pass her larger room to her sisters! What a sweet family!

Dan and Karen said...

Ok I wanna sleep in this room!!! I've always loved a "girly girl" room but somehow I just can't convince Dan to agree! :-))

I can just see your two littlest princesses sleeping there.

Ainsley, you are a gem to so sweetly switch rooms. What a special girl you are!

Lesa said...

This is a room that I would love to have had as a little girl! So sweet of big sis to give up her room for her two little ones.
I am visiting from my friends blog "Spring Babies".
We are also with the same agency.
So happy for you!
We have been home 3 months now with our son Evan who is 3 years. Our first adoption was 5 years ago for our daughter Wendy who was 12 1/2 months. It is so different adopting a toddler from a baby, but so wonderful just the same.
I haven't posted on our blog for a little while due to the fact that he has really kept me busy.

Congratulations again....!!!!
