My youngest daughter had been asking me for a room make-over for sometime now, so I suggested we do it for her birthday.
As the kids get older they have very specific idea's and tastes of there own. That's okay and all good but I still need to have my hand on it in some small way to help steer and direct it.
So my daughter and I came to an agreement, she could choose the colors she wanted in her room and share her idea's and I then had Carte blanche! It was a deal, it worked well!
Her main choice of color was lime green. I then suggested that we add two more complimentary colors and we decided on purple and yellow.
.....okay sooooooo... I had three days to do this in and I was pressed for time!
First on the list were the curtains. I managed to get curtains made in a day! I kid you not!
The next day I went and sourced all the other things we were going to add to her room!
I was on a very tight budget here! So I prayed my way through the whole three days! God is good!
He always directs my steps and makes me sure footed!
Here is a before photo of her room.....

So what needed to be done?
1) New curtains!...and she wanted
them in lime green.
2) New duvet cover
3) A lamp shade,
4) A throw
5) A few little things for the room in the other complimentary colors we decided on.
The transformation from pink to green! :)

I did it in three days! Just in time to surprise her with her new room when she got home from school that afternoon!
Her room is still a work in progress. There are a few things I'd still like to do, and I'd like to add more of the color yellow to the room too, but this will happen with time and yes! of course ill show you!
until next time, HAPPY DECORAT|ING!!!
