DIY - Girl's Room

We actually did this a while ago....and this post has been sitting unpublished!

For the girl's big Christmas present this year, we decided it would be fun to fix up their room.  When we moved them to their new room, the yellow room as it is called in our house, we got them new beds and pretty much just shoved them in there.  Well - now its time for a little girly stuff! I cannot wait for the next few months - a book shelf, built-ins from Paw Paw, and lots of fun stuff I have found.  And all this on a budget....fun!

First thing on the list....a dress up clothes station.

We bought a wood quilt rack ($10) from a facebook garage sale site.

See all the junk in the background - that's my homeschool area.  Still looking for a cool shelf / cabinet to redo .

Then it was off to Sherwin Williams....$6.99 for their sample paint sized paint...and we still have tons left over!!


Something new I learned....If you are a genious like me and forget paint supplies at the paint supply store (hello??) then you might like this! I forgot a paint tray...so I took a cake pan top and covered it with parchment paper.  Worked like a charm!


painted! 


This is in the girls room....we added hooks to hang the dresses....

....and pretty pink knobs for necklaces and purses.
