Polka Dot Polka!

Okay, So i have the most creative family. Everyone creates amazing things, but this one I was so lucky enough to reap all the benefits. Joanne is in North Dakota and has made a friend with a girl who does vinyl. Well, she has wanted to branch further than boards with words on them and stuff like that. You all know what I am talking about right? So, she and Joanne got talking one day and Joanne is helping her expand her horizons.
Joanne came in town this week. In anticipation of coming in town she called and asked if she could do one of her "sample rooms" for me! Hello, I was thrilled. So we thought of ideas. Mostly I wanted polka dots, Joanne envisioned more, she had the bird idea. I told her my conditions were the colors had to be unisex.... and that I totally trusted her and her skills.
This is what she came up with. She mingled the birds with the polka dots and made it all cohesive! I absolutely love it. When Kate came in for the first time, she said, "WOW!" It was too cute. Taylor loves having her room all decorated. Although I did wake up this morning with Kate coming to me with a big blue dot in her hand. I went in thinking that was the only taken off, but no there was a a nice even row of dots in the corner. After threatening them with... obviosely something that will not work, all my children promised not to touch them any more.... Needless to say I had to take the picture today so I could record what it looked like if any further creativity got sparked by my children!

Oh, very well done! Do they have some sort of ballet theme? Always looking for a ballet theme that isn't cheesy...
