It's a Jungle in There

A few weeks ago I was visiting Meghan and doing some shopping around the downtown of her city.  In one of the shops I found these FANTASTIC wall decals by Lorena Siminovich and put out by Chronicle Books.  I had been looking for something, anything, to decorate one of the wall of my daughter's bedroom.  Before she was born we had chosen to paint the room a pale yellow to match with a painting my husband had picked up in Uganda the summer before.  The painting is gorgeous and is a silhouette of two giraffes with yellows, oranges and reds create a "sunset" effect. 

Not knowing her gender at the time, we tried to keep it relatively neutral, but found a cool red shag carpet that had the same shades of orange and yellow in it.  After she was born it just didn't seem to work though.  So I was super excited when I found the decals.  They fit the colour scheme and the theme of the room which was African animals.

Needless to say, I was horribly disappointed when they didn't stay on the wall!  I contacted the Chronicle immediately.  They were aware of the problem and sent me a replacement package of decals AND some other goodies right away!  I was very impressed with the fantastic, personal service I received.  Stayed tuned for some of the other goodies I got from them!

Anyway, here's what I did....with Meg's help of course.

 Aren't they so cute!!!!  The hippo clock comes from another establishment but fits nicely I think.  My daughter, and son, have both enjoyed looking at the animals now that they are sticking properly.

A big "Thank You" goes out to Sandy Cooper at RainCoast books , the people who distribute for Chronicle in Canada, for helping me solve my problem.  Again, stayed tuned to see some of the other cool things Chronicle has to offer.

Cheers!
