A few years ago, I did a makeover of the
Munchkin's bedroom. As his 8th birthday approached, I realized it was time for another update - something to reflect the Munchkin of today.
We had already swapped out his sagging bookcase for a stacked cubby unit - which he has filled with books, LEGO models, and some other odds and ends.
And the table that sat in the middle of his room covered with LEGO and taking up ALL the avalable floor space was replaced with a Hubby-built LEGO desk, with storage shelves underneath for his sorting bins and more "odds and ends".
So -with all this LEGO going on, the robot bedding we had was just not doing it (for me - Munchkin didn't seem to mind).
So three flat sheets, a bit of cutting and a bit of applique later, and I had whipped up two new valences and a cover for the robot comforter.
 |
| Good to have the sewing machine back from being serviced -as I satin stitched all around the applique. |
 |
| LEGO guy on the bed - his old comforter is inside the new cover. |
 |
| LEGO cover and all his "buddies" hanging out. |
 |
| New valances made from the cuff end of the striped sheets, with the remaining sheet used to make the reverse side of the comforter cover. |
 |
| The other window (curtains tied up due to LEGO interference) his new cube storage stool, and the open space where the table used to be. |
And now we are good... for a few more years perhaps?

Hi,
I came across your site http://thequeenbeesbuzz.blogspot.com while searching Google for blogs talking about growing/gardening equipment and related keywords and was wondering if you'd be open to doing a sponsored blog post.
We have a site that growing/gardening equipment and are looking for more exposure online.
Our budget for this is initially $20 for the post and we would give you the blog post (gardening related & already written) as well as a picture to post. All you would have to do is post it.
Here's a sample post we did on another blog: http://homefurniturebiz.com/grow-lights/
We're really just testing out different bloggers, and if you bring some good traffic, we're totally open to doing an annual banner ad!
Also if you have some other blogs, please send them over and I'll take a look and we might be open to doing a post on those as well!
Let me know if you'd be open to this!
Regards,
Vanessa
