I feel so gleeful. I just purchased the cubbies for Sam’s room.
I decided to buy them in WHITE and then paint them the colors that I want them to be, rather than pastel. Since I just decided to do this today, and am buying them today, I hope I don’t regret it later.
Oh well. I have artistic friends that I can throw myself on the mercy of if the painting turns out horrible. How bad can you paint something though, all in one color? (Don’t worry, I just knocked on wood. I’ll get a supervisor, I think)
Here are the storage units again. So I got them in white. And I’m THINKING of doing her walls in a dark teal on bottom and light teal on top. The border would be all sorts of polka dots. Comforter in a shaggy purple with teal and pink decorative pillows on the bed. Polka dot sheets with a bed skirt. Teal might be to dark though. So I could always go with purple. Or maybe a soothing yellow, I dunno. I’m going to get paint chips and samples tomorrow, definitely. I have to think about it more. So, the storage units could all be painted in those different colors. Oh, I’m so excited.
Except all the bedding is on backorder until late Dec or early Jan. I don’t think I’ll move her until that time anyway so it’s really no huge biggie. I know I will be impatient for it. The storage units should ship in 2-3 days (Thanksgiving? before or after?) and get here a week after. Perfect for painting! OOh!
Anyway, I’m gleeful because I got to use another coupon to the same store that i found online. Over $100 saved! Plus, since the total went down, they do their shipping by the amount of money you save, so I saved another $15.00 since the order went down so much! HEE!! $150.00 saved because of Google! HA!

Everything is going to turn out so cute! Can’t wait to see pictures of her new little girly room
Wow, almost 2 already, that is just amazing.
Oh, I adore those. Out of curiosity, why paint them? They look they come in colors already. I’m probably missing something.
Oooh, jealous. My kids have the crappiest bedroom furniture.
Hi Mama P – They come in pastel and I want BRIGHT colors
Silly me…
