Lilja's room

We have been updating Lilja's room a little; trying to make it into a playroom plus just toning down the red a little bit. First I bought some velvet slate blue curtains that definitely darken the room when closed, but lighten up the room colors a little. (the previous curtain were red)
Then i bought the white boxes shelf and I love the colors of the boxes in it.. Slate Blue, red and this soft yellow cream color.. It is the same color as the wall, but in this picture the wall is very washed out.. the color is a lot richer yellow/creamy..and now I just added the shelf on top and the photo of the three of us.. .Lilja choses one stuffed animal each morning to bring into bed with us while we are having coffee and she is having milk (yes, milk.. the formula is .. almost ... gone.. YEAH!!).. Lilja, most of the time, choses the 'lady".. the doll on the right of the shelf... my mom made her a long, long time ago..

Here is a good picture of the curtains.. the "lilja" letters were made by Chelsea, the photographer and I just incorporated them into her room. The wall behind her crib is a lot darker color yellow than the other walls. Love the end result.. When you sit in the rocking chair it just feels peaceful and cozy.. Lilja loves to sit in front of the shelf and pull out some books to "read". She really seems to like it too
