I must admit it was fun working on a girl space for a change.
Here are my recommendations for the room.
And, before we jump right to the good stuff, how about a look at the room before. It was obviously a baby boy's room belonging to Amelia's brother.
Before
My client was already planning to add board and batten to the room and all of my recommendations were made before this change had been made. She wanted something that wasn't too "themey", but rather a room that could easily evolve over the years. Here is the room now.
After
The wall color is Repose Gray - Sherwin Williams. The artwork is from a different source than what I recommended, but I like it. You can find it here.
Before
It has been a while since I shopped for glider rockers and wow are they ever expensive. My client was able to have hers recovered in complimenting colors. She also added a nice drum shade to the existing floor lamp. I just love the way this corner looks.
After
If you are interested in any of the resources, you can read more about the nursery here.
What a pretty restful room and one that will transition well as she gets older. Great job!

Such a pretty color combination, and the gray walls ground everything and make it feel classic. So fun to see ideas become reality!

ReplyDeleteHow exciting to see your designs come to fruition, Rene! Thanks for sharing.
Wow, I love the transformation! So beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks really nice, Rene! The wall color is very pretty and works so well with the pops of color you've added. I love your fabric choices. Very fun artwork and a fun project working on a girl's room!

I love the fabric that you chose for the curtains! The recovered chair fits in perfectly against them. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! I love how she recovered the glider and that Etsy seller is one of my favorites. I have a print from them and it's even better in person. Great work!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous room. The colors work perfectly and I do love the artwork - quite amazing!
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful and delightful blend of colors
ReplyDeleteabsolutely, positively, in LOVE with that drapery fabric!!! well done to both of you. a gorgeous room!!
ReplyDeletebeautiful transformation!
ReplyDeleteCan you give the source for the nursery prints that she used?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Rene, I'm just now seeing this, and thanks for featuring Amelia's room! I also just saw this post http://6thstreetdesignschool.blogspot.com/2011/10/one-hour-consult-before-and-after.html -- which, if it isn't the same curtain fabric, then it's close. I was interested to see it in an adult room, too!
ReplyDeleteYou already know I think you did a GREAT job, but I'll say it again ... I'm so happy with the way the room turned out! Thanks again so much.
