Marlene, you've done an outstanding job decorating for Easter. Beautiful cloche you made. That blue bunny stole my heart! The buffet is so darn cute with everything on it. The new bunny looks great hanging on the mirror. And then along comes the 'Chick Family' that is so SWEET! I have some eggs but all that's in them is candles. No cute little chicks inside like yours. Birds are cute too. Your table looks lovely too. Are those real flowers? We don't have anything blooming here yet. So fun to see your Easter decor. Glad you took a break from working and found time to play with us. Hope you can relax and enjoy your 'New Look' now. Punk

Don't know if you've seen these, but here are a few great photos from houzz - maybe something will suit her/you?

How old is your daughter? I think you have to start with something you love and build from there. Are you going with subtle? I think this print would look good with the company store bedding: https://www.etsy.com/listing/546642885/mermaid-art-mermaid-decor-watercolor?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=mermaid%20print&ref=sr_gallery-1-3 Or if you want something with more whimsy, this artist has 3 cute prints, a mermaid with blonde hair, brunette hair, and red hair: https://www.etsy.com/listing/593763509/mermaid-print-mermaid-art-brown-hair?ref=shop_home_active_8 Also, unless you plan to rearrange the room so that the bed isn't tucked in the corner, I don't think I would do a large area rug. What about a nice sheepskin rug in front of the bed? My son has two twin size beds in his room and he likes the sheepskin rug in between. Ikea has some that are machine washable if that's a concern.

This is a great opportunity to work together with her to get a room she will like when she's finished. These days, it's quite easy to find pictures on the internet and let her choose one that she likes, and adapt it to her own room and furniture. But please don't just ask her to "pick colors she likes" and just paint her room that color, with no concrete vision of what it will look like. Saying that it can be repainted isn't really helping her to learn how to do this right. What she can learn here is that (1) wall paint should be the last choice and (2) paint looks a lot different on a whole wall, than a little chip. And making her learn it the hard way, i.e. doing it wrong the first time, is unnecessary. The objective is to help her to get a room that she will like, not something that she may not like with the idea that she will have to live with her choice, or repaint it. That seems mean to me. I don't get the "it's just paint" comments. People have busy lives between work and family commitments, and that's a lot of work in my book. Alternatively, no-one will paint it for free. Shouldn't the objective be to help her make the right choice the first time?
