final touches
Jan. 4th, 2013 09:21 pmYesterday, the last bit for KiraDeara's bedroom "remodel" arrived -- a "junior-sized" swivel chair from Ikea. When we opened up the box, I was a little bit surprised to see RED. Because I'd ordered white and silver. ERK. Fortunately, Kira *loved* the way the red picked up the same color in the mildly Bohemian duvet cover she chose for her bed...and the red looks much niftier with the green on the walls than I would have guessed. So we'll keep it. Lucky, right?

We assembled that sucker together. She did most of the work, while I gestured wildly and read the instructions in German. Next step, sometime this year, will be to rehab that dresser in the background, which used to be mine when I was a little girl and which has survived umpty-gazillion moves since. FionaPie is starting to get thinky about her own room, so that's probably somewhere on the horizon.
