Also, Lucy&#8217;s crib skirt used to be Violet&#8217;s, and the diaper changing cover was made from the old curtain fabric. But, this time around, I wanted to soften up the room considerably. So I made some adorable white and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gingibersnap.com\/2011\/07\/flower-power.html\">yellow pom-pom curtains<\/a> with enough sheerness to let lots of light in!<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-BtxjNWZcOHs\/TuqX8qMwMnI\/AAAAAAAAD74\/i5jsBur5l-0\/s1600\/IMG_8238e.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-BtxjNWZcOHs\/TuqX8qMwMnI\/AAAAAAAAD74\/i5jsBur5l-0\/s1600\/IMG_8238e.jpg\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div>The ikea crib and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gingibersnap.com\/2011\/11\/after-upholstery-project.html\">reupholstered lounge chair<\/a> have very modular, clean lines.

Inspired by Pinterest, I made this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gingibersnap.com\/2011\/10\/diy-fabric-bookshelf.html\">fabric bookshelf<\/a> to go above Violet&#8217;s bed.
