I've been known to allow some artistic expression of my kids in the form of paint color and room decor. Last time this resulted in my 10 year old choosing a turquoise bedroom that required sunglasses.


I know, it's alarming. But, she loved it and I awarded myself the Best Mom of the Day award.
Now, she's 15 and had to move bedrooms so little monkey could have a room.
This time it's Zebralicious.

This bed fits into a funky niche in the walls so I tried to do something grand and exciting over her bed. She said she wakes up with glitter on her face every morning. That's the price of being fancy I say.

This zebratastic corner features a chair that I splurged and a garage sale, spray painted mirror. I figure it all evens out.

We got this hand me down desk which fits in this weird spot in the room.

I changed out the knobs and fabric on the seat so it's zebra-sassy.

To complete the wild animal preserve, we have my IKEA frames from my previous post.
Even though I'm not sure it's any less obnoxious than the turquoise train wreck I have a happy 15 year old and don't have to wear my sunglasses in the house.
And then I gave myself another Best Mom of the Day award in the form of 5 pieces of Almond Roca.
