Project Canopy: Finished

About a year ago I saw "this" at the aquarium at the Mall of America and thought it would be a cool idea to do as canopy over Ella's bed whenever we moved and got our new house. The way that Ella's room was painted when we moved in was perfect for her! It was turquoise and green striped; perfect for an ocean themed room. On my mom's last couple visits we bought fabric and all the supplies and finished the canopy. The first thing I had Andrew do when he got home was hang it because I was so excited to see what it looked like! And if you look at the "inspiration" picture from the aquarium (which I hadn't looked at again until after my mom and I had finished the canopy) we ended up using the same exact fabric they had used! Pure coincidence!

Here it is in all its glory including progress and close-up photos. I'm sure you're all on the edge of your seats with excitement now! ;-)
I have also added a couple pictures to the January album, started a February album and added a few new pictures to our house album. Super Bowl pictures are on hold for the moment because "someone", not mentioning any names, left the camera battery in the hotel in Miami and is waiting for Greg in the NY office to send it back to us. :-)
