Ok so a couple days before Christmas I'm in Hobby Lobby looking at fabric. I find some really awesome fabric on the clearance rack for less than $2 a yard. (that's a steal, wait til ya see it, pretty awesome!) I'm thinking "hey this would make a really awesome skirt for Ky for Christmas" Well, first of all I don't sew and second it was DAYS before Christmas like I had time to learn or have my grandmother help me make it....anyway, not sure what I was thinking! On the way home I had the brilliant idea to re-do Ky's room using this fabric as my inspiration. So in a matter of about an hour I went from making Kylin a skirt to re-doing her whole room!!
Her closet.
These curtains were the only "new" thing I bought for her room. I actually thought about making them too but I found them for $15. I couldn't buy enough fabric to make them for that price.
She already had all this hanging up I just "tweaked" it a little. Changed the paper in the frames from "little girl" to "wild child" I distressed the frames, just sanded them a little, and changed the ribbon holding the pics around the frames. And just a side note I don't know why frames always look like they are hanging crooked....they look fine in person!
Again her name was already there, just a little tweaking.
I wish I had a before pic. These were just pink flowers so instead of buying something new I just glued little pieces of ribbon all around them. I also switched the old ribbon holding the letters to black.
Words above her attic door
So here it is....here's the fabric that started it all!! I still have yet to get the curtains made....I'm waiting on inspiration to hit me, I wanna do something funky.
All these (except the big black one) were already in her room I just recovered them.
This was pretty much the "theme" of her old bedroom.
Just added a little funky flower in the corner
The best part - this whole room make-over cost me less than $60.
