Girly Room for Reagan

She asked for a princess, girly room for her little princess... and I love the idea of the fabric draping over the bed. This is actually a very cheap project if you find discounted fabric. You can learn how to make canopy type draperies at http://www.doityourself.com/stry/sew-your-own-canopy-bed-drapes!

This room will keep you away from too much pink. All girls love love love pink, but this room would grow with your baby girl all the way through her teenage years. I recommend starting her room renovation by giving her the gift of a chandelier - and it doesn't have to be something to splurge on, it can actually be a very inexpensive gift that will last her all the way to college :) A great place online to find beautiful little girl chandeliers is at http://www.rosenberryrooms.com/cefi1.html.


These stripes MAKE this whole room. If you are doing a room on a budget, there are three things that you can do that are inexpensive and can transform a room - paint, drapery, and bedding. This room just screams little princess .. I almost want this room for myself. Stripes are very hard to paint if you are not a pro, but if this is your "forever home", the stripes will be a great addition that she will love for years to come.

For my last choice I chose something I had shown before. Again, there is the drapery that just makes the bed. Hobby Lobby is a great place to get about 90% of what is in this room (I personally know this room owner and where she shops so trust me, she worked on a budget!) This pink chair is the most expensive thing in the room and I recommend replacing it with a comfy space where baby girl can relax and call her own. Also, if she has a tv, you may want to splurge on a flat and hang. This can help keep her little hands away. Remember to make the room where it will grow with her throughout the years... or you will be renovating and asking for advice two years from now (not that I mind!)

Good luck Misty! Hope you like the ideas and I can't wait to see the room!!
