Riley's old nursery was sage green with lavender as an accent color. It had a dragonfly theme. This time I based everything around her Circo Nature Love bedding. Here's Riley's bedding in her old room: It's pink with bright blue, green, pink and orange owls birds and mushrooms. There's even a little brown hedgehog. Very cute bedding and Riley loves owls. It looked pretty good in her green room, but this time I did her room colors around the bedding.
The colors we used were custom, but they were based on Pale Sunshine (Behr) and Ballet Slipper (Martha Steward). Or in other words yellow and pink.
Owls on the wall above her bed. They're wall decals I bought at Target. They looked much bigger on the box. I thought the tree was going to take up most of the wall. Also, peel with care I pulled the tree top half off and it tangled with itself and everywhere I had to un-stick it from itself had a bald spot.Here's her cute bedside table with birdie fabric table cloth: I bought the fabric from Joann's to use as an Easter table cloth knowing I could use it again in Riley's room. Growth cart vine: This was a Christmas gift I held on to because I knew we were moving. It's a sticker you have to put up in segments. Mike used a level. It also comes with little pick bows to mark the growth, but I think I'll make birdie or owl markers.
More birdies:
Her matching lamp I got this at Target it's part of the Circo Nature Love collection. It has three holes through which you see owls and a squirrel. The pull is a little pink mushroom. Riley loves it.
Her rug I got this at Kmart. I love it, it's got a lot of white so it gets dirty fast.
Accidents happen This is a little set of hooks I got at Joann's for Riley's purses and necklaces. As Mike was demonstrating how far away from the door to hang it to keep it safe he dropped it and it broke in half. So, super cute, but not very durable. Don't worry a little glue and some cute ribbon to cover the patch job will fix it right up.
What do you think? Riley seems very pleased.
Lovely colors. The size of the decals on the wall looks to be a lot smaller than you would have liked. I can see that were they bigger it would look diff. Oh well, that’s what you have so you deal with it. Having it stick to itself would have thrown me; I probably would have given up at that point. You, you soldier on anyway !~! Brava; good for you.
