Because the desk and bulletin board had to fit exactly into an existing fireplace, it was custom made using Ikea legs and a file drawer unit.
You can read how I made it here. The white dresser is large enough for both girls—it was a Craig's list find, originally dark brown which I painted white.
The duvet covers from Land of Nod was the inspiration for the colors of the room...
The mirror frame was also dark brown painted coral to match the beds, the chair was found at Hotel Liquidators.
Since the original gold foil name pillows I made were peeled off by Miss Zelda, new gold metallic embroidered pillows now take their place.
I hope the girl's love their room as much as I do!
I'd love to see a sketch of the floor plan to understand all the layout issues. You are the best bubby and I'm sure Moussia and Zelda will be telling their grandchildren about their very special shared room!
ReplyDeleteYes, sketch to come soon...it was a labor of love!
DeleteI agree with Fairfax....the layout is interesting to me....but the colors of the room are truly lovely. I'd love it for myself..
