My daughter’s finished room
A few months ago my twelve year old daughter came to me and asked for a room makeover. She wanted a “teenager” bedroom. I’m not going to lie, I was a little sad, this is my youngest which means no more “little kid” rooms. That being said, I always love a great room makeover. So we came up with a plan, and went to work. This is what the room looked like before…very very girly. Like a six year old picked things out right? I guess an update was due. First thing we did was pick a bedspread, then the wall color. She wanted a gray bedspread and I…

Here is the after. A lot different. We changed everything, the color, moldings, doors, hardware, light fixtures.

Adding personality with fabric and color
I’ve been working on my girl’s rooms lately. Our next big project. Deciding on colors for the room really had to start with fabric for me. I was in the craft store and saw a quilt that had the perfect colors for my youngest girl’s room. I quickly bought some fabric and started to make a quilt. It all came together from there. These were the colors I wanted in her room. I decided to paint the walls the red color, and the ceiling the pink color and add a lot of turquoise and green accents. I even made doll quilts to match everything. I love fabric and how it…
