Today Z. and I went through all of her books and sorted them into keep and get rid of piles. Then she sorted her keep pile into those she wanted in her room and those she wanted in the playroom. Then I sorted the get rid of piles into those to give away and those to keep in a box (I have a number of boxes of Z.'s old books that I can't part with, but I got rid of 8 grocery bags of books and only kept one file box worth). I also put together the green cardboard boxes for her this morning and she arranged them on the shelves and put some things inside. Right now she has almost three cubes open so there is plenty of room for expansion.
These are the neon green doggy butt hooks. They still need to be mounted on a piece of wood. I'm hoping that A. can get over his fear of the router (we've had it for at least 15 years and he's never used it) and make a nice mounting for them.
Z. drew out her lightening bolt on the wood, A. cut it and painted it (it still needs one more top coat). We all decided that if she tires of it as a lightening bolt we can turn it upside down and it can be a Xmas tree!

LOVE the doggie butt hooks!! And the green boxes and lightning bolt as well. Really cool tween room :)
D finally got a look at the pictures. He was impressed. He thought all girls of all ages love pink and purple.
LOL, and Z. will be thrilled that a boy liked her room!
