Project redecorate is complete!

February 18, 2013 | 0 Comments

So we finally completed my daughter’s room this weekend. Yeah!

We pretty much had everything ready but were waiting on the mattress. I got a call Friday saying it was in though it was supposed to be delivered today.

The husband picked it up Saturday and I was so excited to get it all complete…but lo and behold, the foundation was way too high! My daughter would have to get a step stool to get on to her bed.

I was so frustrated to be so close to done that I was going to freak out, lol! But luckily my husband is a carpenter and just went ahead (with all the scrap wood around) and made slats for the metal bed.

As for the decor, I decided to only buy from one shop because my daughter just loved this print and it matched one that I bought almost 2 years ago. My daughter is an artist herself so I put a lot of her artwork on display. I did get her a canvas set of my hummingbirds that I thought added to the room.

I really, really love the paint color and how it brightens her room up now! So without further ado, check out the new room…

Yeah, so the new paint is up in my daughter’s room! The artwork is as well but I haven’t taken a photo yet.

I really love this color in her room…makes it look so much better!

AND I am sooooo happy those darn circles are gone If you didn’t see the before, check this post out.

Curious about how I am decorating it, check out my pinboard here.
