Day #2...Project #2. The Generational Art

I wanted to have something above my daughter's dresser. Everything in her room has been pieced together very carefully, because I've had a desired look in my head throughout the entire process.

So, I decided upon a mural of sorts with artwork pieces that each had a meaning. It started when my mom gave me the picture of the little girl rocking (from when I was young). Then I found an antique plate from my Grandma. Finally, a sign, I had made. 3 pieces...3 generations. Great Grandma, Grammy, and Momma. Now it is finally above her dresser is finished and I'm so pleased. The handmade lace collar laying on her dresser is from my Aunt...my daughter's Great Aunt. 1 more special piece...1 more generation.

Even in her decorations, I want my daughter to know there are a lot of women before her that have contributed to her person. She is a very loved little girl.
