Another decorating job

Was for a friend who is fostering a three year old. I have three boys, what do I know about decorating a girls room? We avoid the 'pink aisle' in the toy stores, and my boys favor blues and oranges, and dull colors. I think I went a little bit "Princess on Steroids" with this decorating job, but it pleased the little girl and her foster mom, and that's all that counts. From bright pink walls, to a frou frou gauzy pink canopy over her toddler bed, to tiaras out the ear, it is a GIRLS room. I have to admit, I enjoyed putting it together, and once you see a tiara or a sparkly pillow that says Princess, it gets in your blood and you 'radar in' on things you never noticed before. I would go broke on accessorizing a little girl, it's just too darn fun! I went so far as to create a decorative letter "K" for the girls first name, with decoupage, flowers, etc. It was Hawaii sped up, it was Cinderella without the helpful mice, it was me losing my mind a little bit in the "pink aisle"!
