Never one to settle, my firecracker Molly insisted on black and white in her room. She fell in love with a polka dot bedspread and we went from there. We used chalkboard paint to paint dots on one wall. Molly wanted some to look like bubbles, so she didn't paint the insides. I was impressed with her decisiveness in how the room should look. Here are the not so perfect, yet loved by the one who matters, painted polka dots!

Next, Miss Molly demanded a striped chalkboard wall. She showed me how big to make the stripe and what the pattern should look like. Although I was nervous about how it would turn out, I'm loving the contrast of the stripes and dots! And Molly just loves that she can write on the black parts!

My message says "Molly Carolyn Mom loves you bunches!" Underneath, Molly carefully wrote the first initial of each family member along with a colored in heart (DBSMMB - Donny, Beckie, Sarah, Molly, Mister, Bronson). Although she forgot Bailey, she is the most thoughtful girl I know!

Next, We decorated the loft. Here is the beloved bedspread! Molly also decided she liked the blue striped curtain to hide her cozy spot. What you can't see is that she painted more chalkboard dots under the loft so she can draw underneath! We also found awesome blue sheer curtains that have silver spots on them!

Last but not least, I wanted a vinyl decal for the crisp white walls. Every day I am thankful for my baby girl and when I saw this quote, I knew it would be perfect! After losing a baby, I was terrified I would never have another child. I wished and wished for a healthy baby and I am so blessed to have gotten you! I hope that you always know how loved you are!

Enjoy your room kid...you are an amazing decorator! And all of my hard work paid off the minute you saw it and smiled! You said, "I LOVE IT!"

Not as much as I love you...
