They chose a space galaxy theme, and it has been so fun watching them work together to create their shared room. I’ll be sharing all the DIY details soon—stay tuned!

I made this at my house and we decided to try it out on my granddaughters bed to see how it fit. It looks really pink but it is actually more purple. My grandson hopped in eating a lollipop and loved it haha
