Here it is! A labor of love! London’s big girl room is finished! The colors look a bit off for some reason here…but the true colors are turquoise, hot pink, light pink, yellow, black, white, and grey. Got that? :) That’s lots of colors! We made almost everything in this room…and that wall. That wall. That wall took sooo long…the accessories you see were handmade and designed and took foreevr to put together! Remember, with two babies everything takes longer! ;)
Just a few quick DIY things to mention: the yellow bed was bought from Craig’s list and was brown. Matt painted and poly’ed it and we cut the legs a bit shorter bc it felt so tall when we first put it in there. It is 90 years old! And worry not…she does have bedrails…they just fold down and slide under the mattress when not in use
The bedspread was actually bought NEW from Urban Outfitters! It was my splurge…a grey ruffle…and it was perfect. The pillows are a mix from etsy, Target, Hob Lob and some we already had. The side table is Target and another thing we didn’t make. We just taped the diamond pattern on the wall. I spray painted 50 thousand things…the mirrors (2 we already had and were my grandma’s) I wanted bright yellow and floor to ceiling. the bird cages I sprayed black and put ribbon on them as a faux chandelier. The dresser was her changing table…I mod podged wrapping paper on top and changed the knobs to crystal knobs. The painting above her bed I did, along with everything else on that wall…yard sale finds painted, quotes I designed in Photoshop, even her little sheep from her crib mobile…jsut a little piece of her baby room we wanted to keep
I even sprayed the silver vases I found at Goodwill…and I covered the lampshade in fabric.
All in all i was super long and super fun. She even has a toy box, beauty vanity, and table and chairs for art (which we painted…antique finds. The table is just an end table.) Thanks for looking and I hope you love it!
Oh, and my mom sewed the fabulous curtains! Who knew she could be published as a seamstress in a national magazine? ;)
Enjoy!
