The Queen Bee Suite

Welcome to the Queen Bee Suite, otherwise known as Myah's room.  She acts like the queen around here! (Little does she know she is the princess, mommy is the queen!) She rules this nest (or so  she  thinks she does!!).  Her room really earned this title a few weeks ago when I noticed a strange noise coming from her room,  I thought she was playing with books or papers when she was supposed to be sleeping and after yelling up to her room to quiet down and go to sleep, I went to check on her and noticed she was sleeping after all.  Uh-oh, then where was the noise coming from?  Apparently from the yellow jackets making a nest in our drywall, they were eating away at the drywall paper, thankfully I had talked to a few neighbors who had this problem a few years  ago and I knew right away what the problem was.  They were entering from the peak outside Myah's window.  So a nice bee exterminator came and put some sort of mixture in our ceiling to kill the bees.  Whew, that was a close one!!   Even more reason that this room is considered the Queen Bee Suite!!! 

Where our little queen sleeps, in her pale yellow bedroom. Her bedding is from Target's Shabby Chic collection.  I found the large bolster pillow at Sal. Army, it was PB!! And her crown pillow was from SaSea Boutique!

I had purchased this old desk before Myah was here and recently I decided to put it in her room as a vanity and hung a mirror that I have had (after I gave it a white paint job!), she loves having her little lip glosses, hair clippies, undies and socks in here where she can reach them.  I found the cute little vanity box at Salv. Army a few months ago for $7, it says Shabby Chic on the bottom (from Target). I had the stool from the same collection and luckily it fit perfectly under the vanity.  I hung the mirror somewhat lower than normal so that she could see herself in it.  She spends alot of time in this pretty little spot!

On top of her dresser I placed a few of my favorite photos of her. 

I don't know if you know this about me yet but I have always loved Royalty.  I have been collecting royal memorabilia since I was 11 years old, Princess Di and Prince Charles were married the day before my 11th birthday and I really thought it was their gift to me.  I spent my birthday money on a pictoral book from their wedding, I still have it.   So when I came across a man at an antique fair a few years ago selling these pages from English books on Royalty, I had to have two pages,  they give just the perfect royal treatment to Myah's room.

You have probably seen this little chandy before but I had to give it another shout out, I paid $5 at a garage sale for it before Myah came to us.  It is not perfect but I love it!  It was really bright brass before I got my hands on it!   And the little hat stand holds a very special piece to us, this baby hat was from China, actually handmade by the locals, we had Myah's first photos taken in it (see below).

I found this cute little rack at a sale this summer for $6, perfect for my little book lover!

I love this photo of her wearing the hat, I found the pretty sparkly pin at a sale this year and attached it to the bow on this frame. 

Pierre here was a $7 find at an antique sale!  So cute!!

I love the crystal touches in her room!

To corral her toys I had these baskets from PB outlet , I found them for $7 a piece, the prices have gone up greatly since then, they fit perfectly under her bed.

Of course our little girl's room would not be complete without a bit of vintage lace!!!

Hope you enjoyed a peak into the little nest we have created for our Queen Bee!!!
