In an attempt to make our daughter’s new room more light and airy, we swapped out the dark brown, light-blocking curtain on the east facing window and replaced it with the same curtain material as her bed canopy.
That simple switch has let so much more light into her room during the day. (We keep that window shade closed during the day because the view goes right to the neighbors.)
The old brown curtain was so drab! We still have two brown light-blocking curtains in her room, but we typically keep them open during the day and close them just at night. That south facing window is the one with the view.
We’ve also been hanging more artwork: a nerdy number poster (by the same illustrator who made the oversized alphabet poster hanging over the desk) and the embroidered portrait I made. We have more artwork that’s currently in-progress to hang up and share with you soon.
It’s starting to really look like a little girl’s room up there. She loves it!
*i* love it too! what a fun, airy room! (and hooray for blogging about curtains, hee)
