Bailey's Room...

This is kinda old, but I don't think I've posted it here on the blog. I've been MIA for so long and have little time to do much as I adjust to the kids being back in school, so it's at least something.

My daughter Bailey's room was fun to decorate. When we started the makeover it was to move out her sister so that she could have her own room. My budget was very tight yet I was able to accomplish this for about $300.

Bailey LOVES the color pink. But I can only handle so much of it. Therefore, I had to keep her away from the room as I started with the paint. The ceilings in here are 12 feet tall, so painting in its self was challenging. I went with a bright green through out the majority of the room and accented the entry way wall and the back wall with the bright pink. It almost looks red depending on the time of day.

The furniture is mostly all from my husband's grandmothers estate. She had passed away recently so I took a mis-matched bedroom group and painted it all white. The bed is an older style bed with spindles, so I painted the balls and spindles the same pink as the walls. The hardware was replaced with updated matte black pulls.

Because the colors are already all so bright I went with simple and plain white letters for her name and used mismatched black and white pattern ribbons. I don't like everything to match. So you will notice that the black and white patterns are all different. The bulletin board was made with a left over canvas and the remaining ribbons.

Bailey, REALLY wanted this circle pattern comforter set from Target. But it was a bit more pricey than I wanted to spend, but in the end I couldn't agree more with her choice. As you see the curtain is another black and white. The corner shelf unit was also from the estate and was in pretty bad shape and dated until I added the white and bright pink paint. The dresser was my sister's when she was a child and has been repainted a couple of times since my kid's have been around. I went with the ovals behind the hardware because regardless of how much I sanded down the wood I couldn't get the old hardware's indentions out.

So that's her room. I re-did all of the kid's rooms since then and hope to share those as well. Hopefully, you will have gotten some sort of ideas from this.
