Congratulations!
Talk about a decorators dream come true! Sugarplum Dreams has everything you need to turn your child’s room into something spectacular.
From the site: “We work hard to supply the very best products for your family long-lasting, heirloom quality items that will last well into the next generation. We delight in delivering and sharing the stuff memories are made of: a handmade bow she’ll wear in her kindergarten photo, a wooden train under the Christmas tree, the soft blanket he will take everywhere he goes. It’s all here, waiting to be loved by someone special.”
Isn’t that the sweetest thing? Almost makes me want to fly out to Texas just to see this store in person! However, the next best thing is being able to visit their extensive online store of the most adorable items you’ll find anywhere. They have everything from bedding to gifts to toys and books.
We were lucky to have been able to review Dottilicious – a Wall Candy Arts Wallpaper consisting of 80 dots in various sizes and colors. The great thing about Dottilicious is that you can place them on the wall and if you find you don’t like where it is, just peel it off and stick again. No mess, no stress! With dots ranging from 1″ to 10″ the design possibilities are endless! It was so easy to apply and and the vibrant colors made a great addition to Girlie Girl’s room. I’m almost tempted to buy a set for my room, too!
And if that’s not enough, check out some of the other great items from Sugarplum Dreams:

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
Today’s question is:
What are you thankful for?
