Cribs: Andrea

"As you can see my walls are just plain white, and one day I just got so sick of it that I decided to add some color!"

 

Cribs: suits


"These are all of my suits; I probably have about 20 or 25.  I leave them on the end of my bed because one of them is always wet, and that wouldn't work in a drawer." 


 

Cribs: bed

"The collage on this wall is actually my favorite, but I also have some swimming awards and concert tickets hanging up there; more of the things I love to do."

 

Cribs: wall

"Just like the magazine page wall, I wrote this Dave Matthews Band quote on the wall very spontaneously."
