I’m so excited to be doing this “My childhood bedroom was…”<\/em> post for blog for digs<\/a>! I saw the post that Victoria at sfgirlbybay<\/a> put together, and I jumped at the chance to participate. It’s a project that is raising awareness for dwell with dignity<\/a>, a non-profit organization geared towards helping families escape poverty and homelessness through design. Now, I’m no interior designer, but I did have a bedroom full of rainbows and shag carpet that I absolutely loved, so I guess that kind of<\/em> qualifies me:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I shared a room with my younger sister until I turned eleven. It was a magical day in the 1980’s when I left the Holly Hobbie wallpapered room to forge my pre-teen independence… in the basement! I filled my new space with the most important logos of the day {ESPRIT, United Colors of Benetton, Swatch}<\/em>, and as many rainbow-themed items as possible. Luckily for me, one entire wall {wall, not floor!}<\/em> of my new room was completely covered in a weird patchwork of insanely colorful shag carpet. I kid you not.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, eleven is a strange age for girls. You really, really want to be a teenager, but you’re still very much a little girl – hence this eclectic mix: a heart-shaped lamp<\/a>, a very sassy hot-lips phone<\/a>, and a shelf full of ceramic unicorns… and don’t even get me started on the many hours I spent listening to mixtapes<\/a> about true, undying, can’t live without it love. Sigh.<\/em> Oh, and speaking of which:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

… yes, Johnny and Baby, like totally changed my life. Forever.<\/em><\/p>\n

Ah, memory lane! There are several other bloggers sharing their rooms today too… here is the full blog for digs schedule<\/a>, and to support dwell with dignity<\/a>, please visit their site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
