Collecting and Pulling it All Together – Finalizing a Girly Space
But then there comes “the staging” aspect. Also known (to me) as the:
“Don’t make me decide, there are too many cute things to choose from!” point.
Mostly we’ve just been narrowing down exactly what both she and I wanted in this space. Because the square footage is so small, we’ve truly embraced the “simple yet significant” motto, and have been carefully collecting items, mostly just from around the house, but also some from the store, that would really help make strong statements or be useful, without feeling ‘cluttery’.
In order to keep myself on track with the plan we’d talked about, AND still be able to share with our readers some ideas on where they can find and purchase a lot of the same sort of things we have in her room, for a great price, I’ve compiled an “All Things Girly” eBay Collection.
I was thrilled when I found out that eBay had this new Collections feature because this let’s me bank all of the stuff I’m trying to decide on in ONE spot (or collection) so I don’t have to remember where everything is when I get ready to make purchases.
Everything is “new” and “buy now” items, so no bidding necessary, and I’m updating/adding stuff periodically too when I find more things I like… or think YOU will!
You can start collections of your own as well if you want. It works almost exactly like Pinterest, in the way that if you find something you may want to get, you just click “add to collections”, select which custom board you want to categorize it under, and then drop it in. Super easy. I’ve even got a “Posh Pet Collection” going for Zaylee, our cute pup ๐
I’m just about there with Aubrielle’s room.
Today I was finessing the space, and just need to hang one more picture, some bunting and then… I’ll be finished and ready to show you the final look! It’s happening next week if it KILLS me! Ha!
Till then!

Looks fun – can't wait to see it all put together! Do we get to see a "finished" twins room? I remember seeing progress but was hoping for a final post.

Oh my gosh. This is unbelievably cute!! I can't wait to see the whole thing! We're planning on making my almost two-year-old's bedroom a guest room combo but I still want it to be sweet and inviting for her. I LOVE the feel you've created! I hope to be able to accomplish something close.
