Y'all were right! Its knobs for Madison's dresser. This dresser belonged to my oldest son Jesse. It held all of his little gowns and socks then was passed down to Kaylee. Now Madsion gets to enjoy it.
It now sports these "grown up" knobs I painted. Guess y'all have a hint of where we are going with this room..
Right again! Madison found this adorable pillow and fell in love. We have yet to find the perfect comforter but the fun is in the hunt,right?
Now that the dresser was complete I wanted to start on something special for her wall. I started painting "her surprise" and was not feeling very well. Marc was just returning home from a trip out of town to find me in bed. Ick... I think I have the flu. Aches and fever are about the only thing that's keeping me down. I just cant wait to feel better so I can get back to that unfinished wall. If you know me even a tiny bit,unfinished paint projects drive me crazy!! So as soon as the fever breaks and I get some energy flowing once again...I have a date with a very special 8 year old and a paint brush.

I love the zebra print and can't wait to find out what's going on the wall! Whatever it is I'm sure it will be fabulous.
Oh poor Susie I hope you get back to feeling better very quickly!
Those knobs are great on the dresser and LOVE the pillow. You might remember we did my daughters room in black/white (zebra) with hot pink accents. We ALL still LOVE it! Can't wait to see more, more, more......
My home computer is going into the shop this morning. I hope it gets fixed quickly cause I have a hard time with hubbys laptop. It also leaves when he goes to work. :(
We are decorating my daughter's bedroom and she has fallen in love with animal prints too. We are currently on the hunt to see what we can find. It's so exciting! I cannot wait to see what you are painting, but I surely hope you feel better soon. It's no fun being sick.
Great so far! Hope you feel better soon!
Talk about a foxy room! Can't wait to see the comforter you all end up with, and I sure hope you get better soon. Being sick is rough, but the flu is terrible. Get better soon!
So sorry you're feeling bad. Hope it doesn't stay around too long.
The room is looking great.
We're getting ideas - my little one wants to redo her room this year too.
Feel better.
Your knobs are great!
Get well soon. I think we are all living in fear of germs at this point. If you do think it's the flu, head to the doctor.
The dresser looks great! I can't wait to see what you have planned for the wall ~ I'm sure it will be wonderful!

It's looking like it coming together...HOpe you feel better soon!
Hope you are feeling better soon, and I know the room will be awesome. Jackie
I'm doing my 9 year old's room over too. Makes me sad, they grow up so fast, she doesn't want flowers and bunnies. We have been collecting "big girl" stuff to get it done. Her b'day is in May and I want to have it done for her...can't wait to see yours so I can get some ideas!
You are so so talented...I love these knobs and can't wait to see the wall.
So sorry you are feeling yukky...hurry and get well.

I thought maybe the "yucks" were over and done with....but college son came home with girlfriend and then he promptly got sick and stayed on the couch the whole weekend. I'm so sorry you're down...hope it's over quickly. The room is going to be adorable!

Feel better soon. How fun to let Madison paint on the wall. I'm about to start a project in Campbell's room and she is going to do some painting as well. She seems to be the artist in the family.
It is looking cute!!
I hope you feel better soon!
Love the way the room is turning out! I've been sick for a little over a week now with just what you have! Awful! Hope you're feeling better soon!
I hope you feel better soon! We just had the icky-bug go through our family...no fun. I can't wait to see the finished room...I just know it will be adorable! You are so creative!
Warm regards,

I just love seeing bits and pieces of the room. I can't wait to see it all! You get to feeling better soon!! Flu bugs are no fun at all.
Love the knobs and the pillow...can't wait to see what you are doing on the walls! Feel better soon!
Oooh I love the pink and zebra together!
I hope you feel better soon!
I sure hope that you feel better soon!! LOVE that animal print, so cute!
How cute that room is going to be, Susie! Maddy has great taste.
Hope you feel better soon & yes, I'll be glad to share any ideas I've found on granite. I hope to get mine done in the next month. It's not cheap, but I'm happy with what we are getting. I def. am doing the lowest cost I can, but found a place near me that has slabs & lots of good choices in the lower pricerange. I'm happy!
Oooooo La La! Very cute! Very stylish! I wish some of that sytle would rub off on me...
Hope you are better SOON!
You are such a good MOM!!! Good timing with the beautiful new room! I can just feel the love in your posts. My heart aches for everyone involved with these growing pains of childhood and the reality that the outside world is not always kind. It does bring all of us closer to each other and strengthen our character along the way but...darn it, it hurts! Feel better soon-this stomach flu bug is the pits.
I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. There is a TERRIBLE sickness going around here. So many people have it and I'm trying to stay safe in my plastic bubble.
Feel better soon. I can't wait to see the finished product of your hard work!
Susie, her room is going to be just as cute as she is. I just saw the post on the bullying and just wanted to tell you how sorry I am and that I will be praying for your sweet little girl. She is so beautiful and I can't believe how "mean" kids can be!!!
Love the dresser and cannot wait to see the wall!
Feel much better SOON!
Hope you feel better soon!
Can't wait to see it all finished. Love the colors of the room. You dd is going to love the redo. My dd room is also black and pink. I think the look is timeless. It works for child/preteen and teenager. Enjoy the process and hope you feel better soon.
I hope you are feeling better by now. Can't wait to see the special project. I love the dresser with those knobs.
I hope things are going well at school for Maddy.

I'll be praying for your quick recovery, Susie! I got the flu two years ago today and I'm telling you, I STILL remember it! : )
I know Maddy will LOVE her surprise wall!
Too cute!! Can't wait to see your surprise!! We're including touches of Zebra in my Maddy's room makeover!! It hasn't started yet, but will in a couple of weeks!! Gotta take care of some spring cleaning first!!

Hope you feel better soon. We all just got over the flu in our house, be careful, it seemed to have to blown through each person on a different day.
Can't wait to see the painted surprise.
As expected, it looks like it's coming along beautifullly! Doesn't the flu know that you have impatient readers who want to see your paint job?! I hope you feel better soon!
I gave you an award! Check it out at http://andbabymakesthreehumans.blogspot.com/2009/03/awards.html and pass it along! :)
Awwwww hope you get to feeling better SOON! I just hate being down in the bed too. And yes, you will hunt and find the perfect bedding.
So sorry that you're not feeling well, get some rest. We'll all be here waiting patiently to see what you're planning ! :)
Take your time.....I've been so SICK all week and am nearly at the end of my anti-biotics and still am sick. Blah....something weird is going around our area. I've known of so many sick people...and it's not the flu it's some odd cold thing.
Try to pump your body up now with whatever works for you because it gets into your chest and head. We've all had it in our house and of course me .....
"Ms. No Immune System" got it the worst of everyone. Blah.....
Hope you feel better SOOOOON!
Feel better!
Oh, I can't wait to see her room. I hope you feel better soon. :-)
Zebra + pink = too cute!
