I know she is asking to go in there but....Oh well. Like you said I don't want her laying up on my fabrics...... :)
Corry, what a great idea! Sometimes, my husband and I will use plastic and net child gates. We have found several adjustable ones (Greco) at thrift stores. We put two up in the door way, with the top of the doorway having a horizontal gate. But the bottom 2/3 of the door way, we put a gate in VERTICALLY (so the rods run up and down instead). Just expand it to it's furthest width, rotate it 90 degrees, to do so. Then when we want to go in or out of the room, we loosen 1 vertical rod and swing it open like a door! Works great. The whole door way is 'gated' then, so the 'jumpers' can't jump up and over (and into the room). lol. Crafty buggers.
