Here is a peek at Quinn's room! Things still need to be hung and there are a few touches left to purchase, but I'm SO excited about her room! We (Me) are going with a shabby chic feel to the room, lots of white details with vintage touches.
This is her bedding! It's by Trend Lab and is called Olivia. I fell in LOVE with this bedding. I was a little scared when I ordered it because it's an online purchase only (they don't carry it in the store). To my surprise it OVER exceeded my expectations!!!!!!!!!! One of my favorite things about it, which is also one of my struggles with it, is that the colors are not pink and they aren’t purple either. The reason I love this is it’s not your typical baby bedding colors. However, I learned in the beginning that only makes it EXTREMELY hard to find it’s that match.
It wasn’t until I found this light plate that I realized what her room needed to look like (Little Boutique Switch Plate Baroque)! Enter the shabby chic designs! This one little light plate determined EVERYTHING!
I was lucky enough to be looking through the clearance section at Babies R Us when I found this picture and frame! While I do love the picture in the frame, the colors are too far off to use in Quinn’s room. However, the frame is PERFECT! And the best part . . . clearance price was $8!!!!!!! The plan for this little gem is to take the current picture out, put in a mat and then replace the picture with a picture of Quinn when she arrives!!!!!! This will go above her dresser.
This is the paper I used to cover my wooden letters bought at Hobby Lobby. The paper was bought at Archiver’s . It has a beautiful shimmer to it!!!!!!!!!!!
And here are the letters! They were an unfinished wood that I spray painted white and then covered with the paper I had purchased at Archiver’s. I loved the way each letter had a dainty swirls to it. I’m going to attach ribbon to the tops of each letter to hang them by. I haven’t decided if I’m going to use a frilly white or go with a chocolate brown yet. Once the ribbon is attached they will be hung above the frame that is being hung above her dresser.
This lamp was mine when I was younger and has managed to move with me throughout the years. While finishing unpacking we stumbled upon it and decided to use it in Quinn's room. The shade that was on it was old, faded and blue. So I went on a shade hunt. My original plan was to use a dark brown shade. However, upon my quest I found this shade at Target. I then went and bought some brown dye with the intentions of coloring it. But once I got it in the room and on the lamp I decided it needed to stay white. There was just something about the simplicity of the white against the light brown walls and the way the material ruffles. It was the perfect shade of the job!
I CAN'T wait to find the last few details needed to finish her room!!!!!!
