Sigh… yet another rainy day although this weekend is supposed to be amazing with temperatures in the 80s!
But, with all the rain I still haven’t been able to get decent photos of the toy room. I finally caved yesterday (the sun did come out but it was on the wrong side of the house by that time) and decided to go for at least one regardless of lighting.
The table, chairs, picture frames and light are all from Ikea. The cabinets in the center are from Pottery Barn Kids as are the baskets. The two outer bookshelves are from Target (not sure if they still sell those). And, the kitchen set is from Costco. The mirror is an old frame my inlaws refurnished and put the mirror in and the picture to the left was a gift. The paint color is Cream by Devine (LOVE their paint!!!). I’ve painted many different yellows and this is the most perfect yellow I have found — very true.
The sun is supposedly going to be going to be out tomorrow and I’ll try to take some more shots. I’m trying to decide which room I should spruce up next. And suggestions? Maybe next time I’ll remember to do before photos!!!
I wanted to let you in on a little secret courtesy of our fabulous Ronda! She loves creating beautiful, unique fabric flowers for scrapbooking. We included her felt flowers in one of the March add-ons from 2008 and she is at it again! This time she created these beautiful chenile flowers just for us at Cocoa Daisy.
And not only is Ronda incredibly talented she’s also amazingly generous so… she asked that we add these flowers to some of our May kits! We randomly include flowers in 60 kits so if your kit included some and you were wondering why they weren’t on the kit contents list, it’s because you received a lovely little extra!
Thanks Ronda!!!
Here’s one of the layouts Ronda created with the May Kit, Strawberry Lemonade using a flower:
One from Mou
Emily Spahn (funny how great mind think alike!)

And finally Anna:
If you were one of the lucky ones — I hope you have fun creating with them! And… if you weren’t — don’t worry! We’ll do something like this again very soon!
