Buddha called the elephants.

Before Andy underwent surgery, he put a call into my sister wife.  He wanted to make sure I wasn't lonely or bored while he was out of commission (You'd think we just met.  I don't really get lonely or bored.)  Andy enlisted T to come and stay, and he encouraged us to do a project.  (As he yelled ridiculous, drug intoxicated commentary from the bedroom.)

Being the second - less vocal - child, sometimes Harps get "neglected".  Don't get it twisted, the little girl can certainly speak up for herself, in her own language, of course.  But, when it came to the next room re-do project, little Miss Harper won the coin toss.

Here's what we know about our little gnome.  Harper's is a total free spirit.  She is our lovely, little gypsy child.  She has a wild mane of white hair, and refuses to wear a shirt.  Total hippie.  So, we went straight to Buddha for our inspiration.  And, he summoned the elephants.

Let's take it back to the start.

 Use used lots of natural materials for Harper.  An old dresser from the farm, a cut up sparkly calendar and some natural stained wood, and lots and lots of gold glitter.  (That's a natural material, right?)





























 With some beautiful made curtains, and a relaxing little reading nook, Harper was set. (On the second floor, so it will be much more difficult for her to sneak our her window.)
