audrey’s new room {design board}

Our sweet girl is getting a room update. Her nursery was pretty with it’s gold floral wallpaper, fancy taffeta curtains and shades of calming blue. For the past four years it’s been one of my favorite rooms and I’m a little sad to say goodbye to the space.

But our baby is no longer a baby and we’re doing a room switch-up which means she’ll be moving next door to the former guest room. The walls are freshly painted in Sherwin Williams Pure White {the stripes have disappeared!} and now the fun part can begin: decorating.

Many shades of blues – peacock, teal, porcelain – will continue in her new room and we’ll be keeping her bed, dresser, night stand and bedding. The new room will be similar to her baby room, but a more grown-up, little girl version. She is a happy nearly-four-year-old and her room should be a reflection of her fun-loving personality.

Here’s my design board so far:

I’ll bring in my big black & white striped rug for the floor, the ceiling will be metallic gold, pleated medallions and fun art will add texture and color.

One of the things we really need is storage for books and toys. The plan is to put built-ins on the back wall with a window seat for reading and tons of cozy pillows {something like this, this or this}.

I think she’ll love it.

I’ll keep you posted on the progress …
