I'll start with the pictures in the same place I started with the shopping--the bathroom.
I knew that since we couldn't put anything on the walls or get major furniture pieces, I'd be relying on fabrics for the big pops of color we'd want. I was shopping for this room before I knew the family composition, so I went for something bright and cheery but not too girly. I found these fun bright stripes at Target.
Here's my favorite view in this room. Naomi & Veronica selected the lovely handsoap and Gina had the brilliant idea to display this rainbow of washcloths in the little wicker basket I picked up at IKEA.
The view from inside the cabinet is probably just as important to the family who will live here. Naomi & Veronica made sure the bathroom was stocked with toiletries and first aid supplies.
For my 3oth b-day, I worked with Upward Bound Family Place to furnish an apartment for a formerly homeless LA family. I used this blog site to solicit funds, organize helpers, and show off our results. Thanks for visiting!
