After a great week in Savannah, we came home to a finished porch and worked our asses off to pull (most) of it together in 4 hours… In just enough time to have dinner out there! IMG_1174

Each of the Pip Squeaks has claimed their own window seat.  IMG_1190

Which have plenty of room for pillow storage.

Remember these chairs I scored on Etsy?  Well, they are the perfect size.  They are not in the best shape (besides the fabric a la 1977) so I am hoping that they can be salvaged…

e’s room.

entire room

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.

bed

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.

Chandelier

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.

BB5

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!
