Project 1 - the happy room

Before the end of August and after I return from my holidays, this is going to be my first project. (ie first project in the new house). I thought I should make a start from somewhere and the girls room would be the best place to start. As my girlies sure know what they want. One of my earliest posts, was of their princess room in the old house…. But that was years ago, when we were mad about princesses, but now much to their mothers dislike, they’ve moved to the age of Hannah Montana.

This is their name tile, that I picked from Malaysia…


Here are a few images from their room. I’m looking forward to making it a pretty, colourful and a generally happy room. Not inclined towards pink or purple. Catching their dreams…

I’m going to draw and paint butterflies flying from outside the room to inside… and throughout the room in all pretty colours.

The black day bed in this picture will be turned to white.

Oh… the new bookshelf is something I designed to fit in to the space available.. This cabinet will be coloured white and we hope to paint flowers and butterflies on it… somehow *smiles* The intention is to allow the girls to paint the flowers on this cabinet… So they have something to be proud of..

This is the room in total, the walls will have butterflies and other happy stuff. I know its in a mess, but I had no time to clean and clear last night.

Somewhere here… will be some blackboard paint… for them to be creative on…

We are not going to be painting one wall, but do little bits and pieces everywhere… butterflies, flowers, garden…. Etc.. etc.. Any suggestions.... more than welcome...

Closer look at their happy blinds..

I’m linking this in to Bev’s Pink Saturday… Simply coz I'm falling in love with pink...

Oh.. and while you are here don’t forget to check the August table tops and join in the party if you haven't already.
