In our house, up the stairs, there is a Princess. A beautiful but fierce little Princess who loves school, dancing, her tricycle , all cats and noodles. She often asks for cupcakes in the morning… hoping I might change my mind on some random day. She brings joy and sparkle to our house in no small measure and her Baba and Mama are completely enchanted by her charm and stubborn determination.
A princess needs a room to reflect her royal status. I took up the challenge last year to create a room that would take her from young toddler to big girl on a budget. Using some repurposed furniture, treasures from my travels around the world , flea market and Etsy finds and a few small splurges from Target (shabby chic line!) and a few bigger splurges from my favorite shop in West Annapolis, Twisted Sisters (www.Twistedsince1976.com) I created the vintage toddler bedroom of my dreams. Let me give you the grand tour, don’t worry the Princess will not mind…
Welcome…
The bed is a repurposed queen bed from a set I bought in the ’90’s. A coat of paint and a little sanding gives it the perfect vintage look. The quilts and vintage baby gowns are flea market finds. The pillow shams are Target clearance rack shabby chic line finds
I fell in love with this miniature secretary at Twisted Sisters in West Annapolis. I filled it with vintage children’s books( ongoing collection). The Alice in wonderland tea set is from Hong Kong
A Day of Small Things... 
Any little girl would love to live in such a sweet space.
Thanks for Sharing Your Cup!

Your little princess is a darling and she must be thrilled with her pretty room! Mine is married but there is still a needlepoint piece hanging on her old bedroom door in my house which says “princess sleeps here.” I think you will have much happiness ahead because I can feel the joy you get from your tiny daughter even through the computer!
