I loved the pink and the ruffles and the frills and the cuteness of it all.
So girly girl....
She has however outgrown it and has requested a more grown up room. "Z" and "T" agreed to let her come up with the design and now it is being executed by the adults. We are in the midst of putting it together but I can give you a sneak peak.
Her big request was a special bed so "T" is building her bed to her specifications. When it is finished it will be a truly fun piece of furniture for her - then it will turn into a very functional piece as she gets older.
He primed and painted it as he built it to make it a little easier.
You can't tell in this picture but the paint actually has sparkles in it - her request. It can always be repainted when she grows tired of sparkly furniture. He built it in our garage first so he could do any tweaking of it in an area easy to access it.
Then it was dismantled and taken to Miss A's room where it is being put back together after they painted the room.
You can see a sneak peak of the colors she has chosen. Miss A is a die hard "Frozen" fan and asked her room to be modeled after Elsa's room. It is a two tone purple and white chair rail is being installed between the colors. This is as far as we have gotten as it has been a big project and progress has been slow because one project isn't enough - we are working on actually two others at the same time. That way my life isn't too boring. I know none of you do anything like that do you.
So stay tuned as we say good bye to that cute little Girly Girl room and hello to a new Frozen inspired preteen room. It will be a fun reveal.
What have you been up to this summer? A big project or just taking it easy? Would love to hear about it in the comments below.
Until next time have fun creating something you love.

Oh my Cathy, that room is going to be fabulous--she certainly seems to know what she wants :) I'm trying to squeeze in some small projects and am waiting for my back to heal up (I'm struggling with some serious sciatic nerve problems in my right leg--can't seem to bend or sit right now.) I need to finish the kitchen table makeover I started a few week's back. My first really big painting project since I started the blog. I'd love to finish it! Happy 4th :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Diana. She definitely has her own opinion of what looks good, lol. Hope your back gets better I know it's tough those sciatic nerves can cause a lot of pain. Good luck on finishing your table - can't wait to see it.
ReplyDeleteOh how fun for her! My 5 year old granddaughter, Saydee would go nuts for a Frozen room! And must say, she has good taste. lol! I had a lavender room as a teen. Can't wait to see it all! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
