i have finally finished my daughter’s room. (cue the trumpet) i literally thought it would take last summer and be done. but i wanted to make some new pillows…and (cause i’m insane) decided to make my daughters comforter…. and i finally finished it… (basically cause i was hosting bunco and didn’t want everyone to see it in it’s current state…..
so this week is girl’s bedroom week with a finale at the end of the finished product!!!!!
so we will start with the gray polka dots that i posted over at the diy club…
I taped the stencil up….and got down to business
(the nantucket mist looks crazy light but dries darker!) I used my little roller from cutting edge..it is the perfect size for these stencils!!!!
I just worked my way across the room…..
I actually did two full walls…..and it really didn’t take me that long!
it looks like a ton more work than it really is! the corners are a little hard to get around…..but the cutting edge blog has a great tutorial on how to work around a corner (you can go HERE)
or you could get a little colorful and make yourself a work of art!
AND…. i got this cool little polka dot stencil from decorart and recovered the top of a shelf/barbie house.
it was really easy…and i did the whole top really fast….

Gorgeous! Love the polka dots! Great work…it does look like a ton of work! Beautiful bedding too! I need to do my daughters room…hopefully I am totally inspired now! (maybe not inspired into action {yet}, but love the ideas!)

I love this Kim!!! Such a fan of the happy polka dot, don't they just make you smile looking at them?
I must admit though – this looks like a boat load of work. But I love it!

I hate polka dots, but LOVE the way you did them! You have changed my mind towards them. Also, I noticed the bookshelf being used as a barbie/doll house! GENIOUS! Thanks for that idea!

That room is beyond cute! I love all the little details and knick knacks. I can't wait to buy a house (renters can't paint), I am definitely inspired to start putting my details together for my daughter's room. Her G-ma bought the bedding and accessories and I'm dying for change.

It really does look like you slaved over it! Very fun and perfect for Jordan I'm sure!
