hailiegirls dresser...

sometimes I feel like there is nobody out there reading my blog, so I get down on myself..
why did my first giveaway not go so well, why does nobody ever comment...I don't have that many followers... etc..
then I bring myself back remembering that I am doing this for me and my babies to have something to look back on.. there is so much creativity and even competition out there in blog land and I dont want to get caught up in that.. I want to concentrate on having fun and creating memories.. and I am also thankful for the sweet and fun blogfriends that I do have..

One thing Hailie and I will have to look back on is this little dresser..

we found it on craiglist for 20 bucks.... I contemplated doing anything to it because I loved the way it was already..but Hailie really wanted to paint it white....
so she and I gave it a fresh coat of paint (that already had primer in it! so easy) and took a sanding block to it a bit here and there...
and we ended up with a cute little dresser for her room...

I went to go rummage around to find some cute stuff to put on her dresser and when I came back she had already decorated it herself with her most prized possesions...
her lalaloopsy dolls.. she is obsessed with these dolls and is on a mission to collect every last one of them..

it was so adorable and it is HER room.. so that is how her dresser has stayed...
xoxo love you hailiegirl...
