A month or so ago, I was so inspired when I read this post on Pam Garrison's Blog. She titled it an "Ode to Alicia" so this is my "Ode to Pam". I just loved the idea of taking an assortment of patterned papers and using them as some sort of home decor project. What I ended up with was a fun way to decorate Kate's desktop as well as fix all the non-washable marker stains, peeling paint and juice spills. It was easy peasy -- I had a large piece of acrylic cut to her desktop dimensions at the local hardware store, found a bunch of lovely patterned papers in my stash that went with her color scheme and went to work cutting and assembling. I didn't even glue down the pieces -- just used a little repositionable tape runner so we can change it up in the future. The Little Miss is digging it and I am thinking between her new desktop and chandelier, I may just have to move in!
Gotta love that Pink Hello Kitty television in the background. A girl has to be able throw in a Little Einsteins DVD inspiration every so often!
Happy Monday!
