Some grandmothers express their love with kooky knit sweaters while others, like Tutu, pour their energies into delightful spaces like this one. Alexis shares: My mother (aka "Tutu") created this dreamy budget friendly playroom for my 2-year-old daughter Adella, and all future grandkids.
She used bright colors and whimsical accessories that inspire creativity through imaginative play. Most pieces were purchased at Ikea, Homegoods, and Target. Our favorite place in this room is the dress up corner, filled with lovely little frocks, tiara's and jewels that would make you drool!
Thanks Alexis (and Tutu!)! Readers, you can catch up with Alexis on her blog Adella & Company.
