An Addition to Holly's Room

I've had Holly's room pretty much done for a few months now, but I saw a "Going Out of Business" sign on a furniture store today and stopped in to see if I could find a decently priced rocking chair. I hate the price that you have to pay for decent furniture, but have also come to the conclusion that I WILL need a chair to rock my sweet little girl to sleep in.

I found a chair that rocks and that I can kick my feet back in, but it doesn't recline all the way back. Once I am done with it in Holly's room, I can use it anywhere in the house. While I was taking a picture of the new chair, I thought I would take a few of the rest of the room so everyone could see what it looks like.

Just for the record, I DID NOT paint it myself! A lady who lives in town did quite a few years ago. Unfortunately, the chair hides the little hill with a couple of kittens sitting at the bottom of the tree. Maybe I will need to rearrange...

The blankets that are hanging on the bed are ones that were given to me by friends. The quilt on the right was handmade by a group of my quilting friends, and the one in the middle is one that I made. I still have a couple of really cute shelves to hang somewhere, too, but I will worry about that once I get home.

Anyway, in a week and a half, the room will be occupied by someone other than the cat! I can hardly believe it. The fact that I leave in three days still seems so surreal.
