It's starting to come together! 

Finally, Ling Ling's Room is starting to take shape...Some special touches in her room are...

  • The quilt Aunt Marian made for me for my high school graduation, folded on the bed.
  • The black Raggety Ann and Andy I had as a kid!  We cross many races in our household!  :)
  • The crib my nephew Bracken and my friends son Erich used.
  • The mystery dresser made by someone in my family about 100 years ago.  We can't seem to remember who made it, but it has the initials JC on the back.  May it was Jesus Christ!  :)   Who ever made it, it was in desperate need of a coat of paint and some glue! 
  • An authentic touch of the 1930's.  $10 vintage carpet from an estate sale and $2 vintage wallpaper from a different estate sale! There wasn't enough of the wallpaer to do a wall, so I got creative!
