Selah's Room


I started on Selahs room as therepy preparing me for a little girl. I painted 4 flowers on 4 different caves to make one large art piece. I used the flowers that are found in the material on the bumper and curtains as my muse. I made the canopy over her bed, the liners for the baskets, the pillows and a few blankets. I was a sewing machine :) no pun intended. At one point my sewing machine broke because of the heavy use. Luther was able to take it apart and fix it for me. He's so good at that kind of stuff. Anyway, a friend made the bumper, skirt and quilt. I think it turned out great! Plus it can transition easily into a little girls room, it's not just for baby. The REST abover her bed is what her name means (To rest or reflect) today that proved true she slept 8 hours then, another 4 for a total of 12 hours! I went in to see if she was still there I was so suprised. I really enjoyed decorating her room. I think she really loves her room. As it turns out she is fasinated by art. If she can see one of the paintings on the wall is is mesmerized at least for a few min. That's her room it was a labor of love.
