Happy Friday, everyone! I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t be happier that this week is drawing to an end. Before we all take off for the weekend, I have some end-of-the-week cuteness to share.
When Cara, a fellow HGTV.com co-worker and working mom, shared with me this adorable wish-list that her 10-year-old daughter wrote for her, I knew I had to share it with all of you.
You see, Emmaline is starting middle school in the fall and Cara told her that they needed to spruce up her bedroom a bit — she’s getting older and her room needs to reflect that. Mom was thinking a new comforter and perhaps organizing Emmaline’s bookshelves. But as you can tell, Emmaline has other ideas.
All of us in the office are backing Emmaline 100%. Her requests seem very reasonable to this design-oriented crew. Cara, this is what you get for taking your work home!





















Great ideas Emmaline. Okay mom, get busy and rip that carpet right out!

I like the idea of a dress form in a bedroom. Unique.
Such a smart creative little girl deserves a big girl room!
Great ideas Emmaline. Thanks for sharing.
No carpet in MY room! I love that kid.
Ridiculously adorable! She's going to be the most posh in her class!
Can Emmaline come decorate my room, too?!
I see being a home decorator in Emmaline's future. Really good suggestions.
Can you show us a photo of the bedroom when finished?
Great ideas! Cannot wait to see the new room and the new floors, please post pictures!!
Yes, pictures please! Maybe Before and After.
This is priceless! And yes, I love the ideas, too. Go, Emmaline!
Dress form and sheers – is she going to "remodel" her clothes too? Sounds like a very creative young lady.
