Sally's Room...progress

Sally has convinced me her favorite colors are pink and purple and they need to be in her "youoom" (room). So, I took all the darling pink and brown cupcakes stuff down and I am transforming it into a "Rapunzel" inspired room. So, lots of spray paint is involved!!!I got these frames from thrift shops and garage sales. I took the pictures and glass out and spray painted them heirloom white.


If you preorder the "Tangled" DVD from the Disney store you get 4 Tangled prints and a $10 coupon - no brainer! I knew I wanted to use the pictures in Sally's room, but they are a funny size. So, I used the over sized frames and just tacked the picture in the center - I love how it looks!
This was the quilt that was in Sally's room before, it used to be Ella's but I still like it for some reason. I cute lavender circles and flowers out and appliqued/quilted them right on top and I love the new look it gives.

New flower center and the quilting is swirled
I finally painted this little night stand that I got at a garage sale - 2 of them for $5! It was cream and yellow with yellow and green flowers - I'm sure you've seen the look. 1 can of Heirloom white later and I love it! We also spray painted the thrift jewelry box and the thrift mirror! (notice the Cinderella perfume, it was from Santa and smells so cute!)
I sewed a little quilt to go on top of the nightstand. I love how it turned out - super simple I think it took and hour start to hand sewn binding!
I did really close straight quilting - I love the look but I would not take the time to quilt a large project like this.

I took the puff balls down from her birthday party and hung them in her room (yes I copied Judy on this one). I love them - they give it a light feel. Oh, the puff balls were made from white tissue paper and I lightly spray painted the edges so they have a softer feel!


The bedding still need work - I have big plans to make quilted shams and throw pillows. And I am trying to figure out how to hang string lanterns in the room so it feels like "Tangled."

Ella's Room Part 2

We finally finished a few projects for Ella's room. To see part 1 click here.


The desk has been finished since October, we finally got around to drilling the drawer pulls on this past week....ta da!! (Oh, and the chair got a fresh coat of paint...it will soon be getting a chair pad.)


I found this memory board at the Goodwill. It was just black and white when I bought it. Ella and I used Stampin' Up chalks and colored in some of the flowers and leaves to match her room. I love how it turned out.

We also picked this up at the GW. It was brown and green with butterflies on it. So we got out the spray paint, sand paper, fabric and presto.....super cute bulletin board. I adheared the purple fabric right on top of the cork board that was already there. Ella drew the birds and I sewed around them. The matte came with it - only it was green - so I spray painted that too!
