Fit for a Queen

P said the other day that she wanted to make the space under the stairs a "queenly place" for queens, princesses, and fairies. I have helped her start the transformation.

We went through my bins of thrifted fabrics and linens and found a green toile tapestry of birds and leaves to hang on the wall and she chose a few other fancy items for decoration.  We also draped a large piece of red and white damask fabric across the opening.

D installed some hooks for her to hang some "queenly things." and B fixed a lamp for light.

She says she will draw some queenly things to decorate the backs of the stairs.

M has fun getting in there and playing games with her.

Overall she seems thrilled with the space. It is fun to have a doorway to such a magical place in my sewing room.

Eventually it will be a storage space for me but for now, it will be a place fit for a queen, or princess, or fairy, (or maybe even a mermaid she says).
