DDs new room
Well...everything old is new again. We've been planning to re-do DDs room sometime within the next year. I went to a flea market and found the most funky desk (really an old table) and dresser and then it went from there. I am still waiting on her platform bed and bedside table - trying to talk DH into building them - he did the valance and it turned out great! Anyway - wanted to share some pics...I'm a bit of an addict when it comes to decorating...so I'm proud to show off this cute stuff! She chose a lot of this herself...the Audry, Marilyn and Betty Boop theme of the posters/art and the overall color scheme. I really want to repaint the walls...but this paint job is not very old and DH is putting his foot down on that!

Here are a couple more...we LOVE the beading hanging down from the valance...eventually having a window seat built where she can kinda hide out behind there! I did all that by hand...took FOREVER!!!

very cute! I love the distressed dresser and desk. They look great and you know you would have paid top dollar to have them done that way. Great job!
