Last year, for her birthday, we redecorated E’s room. Her desired color scheme?   Purple and pink, probably my least favorite color combination.  I started twitching at the thought that it might turn out like something out of a Barbie movie.  Well, it didn’t.  And I think we were able to create a room that both mother and daughter were happy with.

It all started with the Mariska Meijers pillows.  That was my inspiration for the room.

Then we worked up a paint technique that looks like a wash.  I love the way it turned out.  Her bench-  a HomeGoods find that we had reupholstered.

The chandelier is actually broken, but I like it that way.  Speaking of broken…  I bought this picture frame on clearance at HomeGoods.  I had the mirror fixed and replaced the artwork with an enlarged picture of E.  I love the way it turned out.

The rocking chair was $20 from Craigslist.  The new fabric is from Spoonflower.

This Target lamp had a makeover.

Most of the accessories on her dresser are from HomeGoods.  You can buy a similar mirror here.

I had the pillow made from extra fabric from her bench.  The table.. HomeGoods.

Her desk is from Land of Nod.  You can read about her chair makeover here.

Buy this book set here.

We covered her bulletin board in the same ol’ ostrich fabric that seems to be appearing all over our house.  It’s so durable and versatile.  I still have a ton left, so you will be seeing more of this!

I love these heart push pins.

The bedding was on clearance at the Land of Nod (sorry, out of stock.)  It couldn’t be more perfect!

The shades are from Lowes, but we removed the rose trim and added hot pink!The jujuhat was quite an ordeal.  I am just glad that we finally got it.The lucite “E” is a custom product.  If you are interested in something like this, send me an email.
