Steps taken...in my head

I haven't actually done anything yet :-) But, I decided that in an effort not to rush Lila sleeping in a big girl bed we will probably buy the mattress later. And, I am going to try really hard to keep tabs on the Target sheets and not buy them until they go on sale to make the duvet cover. I mean, for both sets of sheets It will cost close to $50 as of now and I could buy a nice duvet cover and save time making one for that price. But homemade is what I'm going for here!

I am struggling (again, in my head) with window treatments. I love the idea of a high curtain rod to make the room look bigger, but long curtains to serve that purpose seem very impractical for a toddler.

SO, while I decide on the window treatments and wait for the "bedding" to go on sale, I am plotting more accessory type items. I have taken a leap of faith here in ordering fabric for these items and hoping they work! Here's the plan as of this moment...

I am going to make:

1) The book slings....

...using these fabrics...

2) These Land of Nod inspired floor cushions...

...using this fabric...

More thoughts coming soon as I hash them out!
