The Girl's Room

-


Through the entire process of us preparing to build a house we had promised our two girls a set of bunk beds. While we may have changed our plans...theirs did not...so I've been looking at the MANY styles of bunk beds lately-and there are a lot!


The thing about bunk beds though...is that they really aren't all that nice looking. For the most part they are pretty clunky and dated..two things I'm trying to avoid. I came across this pin the other day and love the style.

I love the simple vintage feel of the metal bed and the color is great too. I also love the wallpaper (but more on that in my next post)

I've searched everywhere online for this bed and it doesn't exist...at least not in this color. I did find something VERY VERY close at...drum roll..........Walmart! (and for only $165!) So at least that's a start.  (Pictured below)

Who owns a bunk bed? Tell me your thoughts!

    We own bunk-beds---- the girls love them! We have solid wooded one with a drawer under the bottom bunk that I love for storage. Course you know our girls had to have bunk-beds in order to fit three beds in one room-- ha! We love ours though. GREAT fort making as well which happens often in our house. Only negative comment would be that metal ones (in my experience with other friends/family that had them) they loosen extremely easily and get all wobbly. John is handy, so he would probably keep that from happening. Have fun bunk-bed hunting!

One room down...

Phew! Moving is exhausting! We've owned our home for one week and it's safe to say things are chaotic. It wouldn't be so hard if we both didn't have to work, get the kids to school, remember to practice Lilly's violin, do homework, lesson plans, write papers and eat. We're also getting all new plumbing throughout the house this week...and the new kitchen is going in next week.  All that to say, our house is far from feeling complete.  I was able to complete one room though today after our wonderful friends helped us move in.  This was definitely the "low-hanging-fruit" room. All the furniture was stuff we already had and the previous owners did a great job with their paint color selection. One of my favorite things about this house is the attention to details throughout. Each room off of our foyer has french doors, as you can see in this room and I love them! I also love the wainscoting, and the tall windows.  One room down...a lot mor

An Elegant Little Girl's Room

I have this thing where I can't post about a room until it's DONE. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen all that quickly which is why it's been a while since my last post. I'll try to work on it...but don't hold your breath. That being said, I'm soooo excited with how the girl's room turned out. Most of the rooms in the house we bought had fresh paint (and in colors I would have chosen!) but a few of the bedrooms did not. This room was one of those rooms. The walls were a yellowed, off-white and it definitely needed a fresh coat of paint. Here is a picture of the room the day we began moving stuff in. My awesome mom helped me paint the room a soft gray and the trim got a fresh coat of bright white as well. I found this dresser at the Habitat for Humanity Restore for $40! I love the unique look of it so I took it home. I painted it with Valspar's furniture paint which I hadn't used before. I was really impressed with the quality of paint an
