This is Part 1! We are not finished, but I wanted to share with you all the progress we are making.
I have stated before that we moved into this house four months ago. All the walls are White!! As an Interior Designer, I need COLOR!! My daughter's room is the first room that we updated. I recently bought her a new bed and she is very happy to get rid of the futon that she has been using as a bed. The Gorgeous Wrought Iron Headboard and Foot board I bought on Craigslist for $65!!!!!!! Yes, you read it right! Can you say "SCORE!!!" Look at the Detail!!!
We painted her wall a beautiful shade of Turquoise. This was suppose to match the "Tiffany Blue" color, but the guy at the store made it darker. My daughter is pleased, so I am pleased.
The dresser has so much history. We have painted it a gazillion times!! Now it is black with white handles.
She has a bit of a Parisian theme along with her Damask bedding. She has a Awesome Eiffel Tower clock that she also hangs her necklaces from. We are still looking for a different comforter, as this one is a satiny material and slides off the bed way too easy (not only that, it looks as cheap as it actually was). < smirk >
She really loves the room and spends most of her time in it. Whether it be watching TV, listening to music or hanging out with friends. We still have another piece of furniture and a mirror to paint. Pictures to hang and a few other knick knacks to get. Stay tuned for Part 2~
I can see why your daughter spends a lot of time in her room - it is beautiful! Wonderful price on the wrought iron bed frame! Craigslist is great!
ReplyDeleteThe bedroom is absolutely beautiful. I love the turquoise paint.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed visiting as usual-

I wish my mom would have let me do cool things like that when I was a teenager...alas, my mother was/is afraid of both color and patterns.
*sigh*
Happy SITS day!! That room is beautiful. The bed is great and I love the Eiffel Tower!!
ReplyDeleteOh my heck! I'm drooling! I'm moving in this weekend ok?! :) Enjoy your day in the SITS spotlight.

ReplyDeleteWow, I absolutely love, love, love what you did in there. I've been working on redecorating my bedroom myself, and I totally didn't think about Craig's List for furniture, so thank you for the tip! Off to scour Craig's List now! :)

ReplyDeleteLove blue and black together! I just made a duvet cover for our bed, and bought some silky stuff for the backing...BIG mistake! We could never keep it on the bed!
Had to rip it all off and I replaced with inexpensive tea-stained muslin. Ahh, NOW it stays on the bed and we stay warm and happy! :-)
The turquoise is perfect!!
ReplyDeleteVery cute bedroom, ooh la la! I love the bed for sure, you did a great job!
ReplyDeleteNatalie
That is a pretty room! I'll bet your daughter loves it!
ReplyDeleteThe whole theme of your daughter's room is so peaceful. I wish I were talented enough to do the same to a room in my house...except I'd make it sound proof. :-)
ReplyDelete~ Sandy

ReplyDeleteHi! Saw in my email that you were the featured blogger today and I just wanted to say "Hi"!
ReplyDeleteI think it's so important to have kids be involved in the decorating of their room - it allows them to show their personality.

ReplyDeleteYour daughter has a beautiful room! I want it! I love the whole whimsy twirls and the black/white/Tiffany Blue look. Very fancy but very chic. Love it!
ReplyDeleteScore on the bed! Try some solid but textured black, gray and white for bed linens. That would make the Tiffancy blue that much more special!

got here a little late,hope you are still checking comments.
ReplyDeleteI was was womdering what color you will be painting the mirror? I like the blue too. And what a find. I've never used craigslist, right now I've just started using freecycle.org. I haven't seen anything like that bed yet, but you could check it out! You never know!! I just saw a keychain hanger on one of these SITSta sites, wish I could remember who. It would be great to update it to a necklace hanger for your daughter. Oh, surely some SITSta would know!
Looks like fun.
I love all things Parisian -- such a beautiful room!!
ReplyDeletegreat room! I love the theme and colors!
