Eden's Coral Striped Room

And for Eden's bedroom redo...

I have four different pieces of art and some shelving I still need to hang. I'm just procrastinating on some of those finishing touches until we repaint the whole thing. I don't want to hang them up just take them down. So without further ado...

Now for some more detailed pictures...

The new closet (Eden's clothes are on the left, Charlotte's on the left)


Paper sorters turned bookshelves

Eden's big girl bed


A pom pom garland and some pinwheels to adorn her bed


Her nap lamp...which we are in love with.


I am super jealous of the decorative pillows on her bed.

Her toy/play corner

And the sad and disappointing result of pulling the tape off the wall after painting the stripes. This (and a few other spots like this) are the reason we have to mud, prime, and repaint the entire room. Boo!




So what all did we do? Here's the list:

  • Tore out all plaster and lath (including walls, ceiling, closet)
  • Insulted all walls and ceiling
  • Installed drywall
  • Installed new closet lighting and room lighting
  • Opened up the closet and removed the door
  • Installed pine on the back of the wall for some architectural detail
  • Installed a new closet system
  • Had the hardwood flooring from inside the closet pulled up and redone to fill in the gaps where we took out a wall...and then put a slightly elevated new closet floor in
  • Installed new (and larger) windows
  • Installed and painted new trim
  • Painted the bedroom door to match the trim
  • Painted stripes (and subsequently tore off paint)
If there's enough interest, I'll provide a source list for the items in her room.

I'll post another update on it once we've repainted and have the finishing touches added (art, shelves, etc).
