I often felt ugly. My hair was short, what I would've called "nappy," and didn't look like any of my friends' hair. Over the years I tried relaxing it, braiding it, a jeri curl (long after they were in style), weaves... you name it. My fall back was relaxing my hair- using expensive and painful chemicals to break down my curls and make my hair straight. Then, I'd love my hair... for about 2 weeks. The next 4 weeks were spent waiting until I could straighten it again. That's no way to live, people. The day I decided to learn to love my natural 4c curls, was nothing short of life changing and I'm not being dramatic. My first attempts at researching great products for extremely coarse 4c natural hair led me straight to SheaMoisture. 

In March, Joe added shiplap (more to come on that) to the bathroom walls and to be honest I can't even remember how long ago I painted the vanity. But those were the first two exciting steps toward a new look for the kids' bathroom. Of course, I wanted to make it look nice for the girls and Dax but since guests also use it when they stay, its priority level moved up a few notches. That said, we wanted a low budget kids' bathroom renovation, that would still be suitable for adults. Here's what we came up with!

When I shared the girls' room (okay, let's be honest...more like when Chris Loves Julia shared it), I got 2 main comments/questions. 1. Where can I get those pillows? Sorry, sold out! and 2. Those headboards are amazing. Well, the headboards were a thrifted find (I did share my #1 tip to find your own awesome headboards here though!) but I occasionally see amazing boho headboards while online window shopping and rounded 'em up for you! We've got vintage headboards, rattan headboards, cane headboards, bamboo headboards- basically so many woven, boho, beautiful headboards! Prices start at just $100!
