Tween Girls' Bedroom Update - ORC: Week 4

It is Week 4 of the One Room Challenge and I can attest to the saying that time flies when you're having fun! I think the ORC accounts for loads of it because no sooner than I make a post, another one pops up.  
With only two weeks to go, I am trying my best to complete the room, on time for reveal day.





I received this pendant light a week ago and am pretty stoked about having it hung. My intention was to have it installed earlier, but the light kit was out of stock, forcing me to pre-order.

Knock-Off Mirror for Girl's Bedroom - ORC: Week 3

Week Three of the One Room Challenge is upon us folks! Need I say more?

 Between my daughter taking the Milestones exams and my son celebrating his birthday last week, I barely got anything done.

On another note, I fell in love with this wood beaded mirror and figured I could get away with a knock-off version except that mine is rectangular. 

Personally, I think every princess deserves a full-length mirror in their bedroom, particularly for function.
And because pretty girls are the happiest, pretty rooms are necessary to keep them glowing. A beautifully designed frame adds style to a space, creating the perfect look of elegance. Also, if mirror frames are elaborate in design, they can improve a young lady's smile, which will be evident upon approach (... just made that up) 😀.

Tween Girl's Bedroom Redo - ORC: Week 2

Wow, Week one of the challenge flew by so quickly and I just can not believe we are already in Week two. Happily, I made some progress with painting the walls and getting the popcorn ceiling scraped. The ceiling was not previously mentioned in my plan 😊, however, I thought it would be fun to try something new.  I am still contemplating what tone would work well, or if I should use a certain technique to spruce it up. But knowing me, something will definitely strike my fancy at the last minute.


Here are a few accessories I picked up for the room


Well here are some photos of what I have been up to at this point.



I painted the room and I love it! While the former bright colors were lovely, I am enjoying a new look for a change. 

Tween Girl's Bedroom Makeover - ORC: Week 1





Yay! I am happy that I am diving in headlong again as a guest participant in the popular One Room Challenge (ORC). This season, the targeted space is my tween daughter's bedroom. 
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the ORC, it is a biannual event that includes 20 designers and 100 guest participants who makeover a space in just 6 short weeks. Each week, participants take us on their journey to reveal the challenges and successes encountered along the way. The ORC then culminates in week 6 for the final reveal. 



My daughter's bedroom is currently one of the most favorite spaces in the house, referred to as "the pink and green room".
As you can see, the color scheme is quite beautiful, but she outgrew it after having lived with all the decor for 10 years.
