one july day
my daughter put on her blue dress
and decided it was time to
wallpaper her room
so we measured, cut
and hung bits of
wallpaper I had collected over the years
to make her a patchwork wall
it was a very pretty work day
and the end results are adorable
Sending you a
happy Summer's day
with hopes that you have found your own
happy place
{it is hard to believe that August is almost here }

OH HOW YOU ROCK MY BLUE BOAT....I have a little blue dress similar in style, but without a pattern. I love this dress, and have only had maybe three occasions so far this summer to wear it. Maybe it's time for a photo shoot of me!!!!!!!!
What a great idea....a patchwork wall. Oh Koralee, what will you and your family think of NEXT! Hugs to all my dear friend, Anita
very creative .. so much like her mamma!!
I love that idea.. I first say it this spring when I was at Chaps restaurant in Spokane (www.chapsgirl.com).. it's an old farmhouse .. upstairs eating area has the wonkie ceilings that angle down ..love that!.. and she took awesome bohemian papers from World Market and wall papered bits of the wall where she had art work ... FABulous!!!
Hi Koralee.. what a cute daughter, lovely dress and fun project!! I'd love to see the finished room. I know it seems like summer is racing along.. we go camping in 10 days or so. And then.. fall. EEK! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
Love it!! All of it! The patchwork, the blue dress, and girls who wear pretty blue dresses while wallpapering. :-)
How incredibly cool!
Pretty girl and pretty walls...I love that large damask patterned one!
So Charming - Your daughter, her blue dress, and her lovely patchwork wall. Happy Summer, Koralee! xo
Dear Koralee,
Your daughter and her new wall look enchanting! Did she cut her hair? It looks good (from behind :-))
Love her dress! I see she has the same taste as her mum :-)
Have a lovely Sunday dear friend,

If every woman should have a little black dress, I belived that every girl should own a cut blue one...:)
