The Before: Tackling a Lake House Kid's Room

One of our next projects at the

lake house will

be this kids room.

I'm blaming everything on the aqua colored walls.

I've started early by purchasing matching

quilt coverlets in Red, White, and Blue.

Just imagine bunk beds

painted in white.

The red striped pillows are going back.

I found another pair at Christmas Tree Shops

Much cuter.

Photo to arrive soon!

Dear Hubs found this lamp in his travels.

I think it is a keeper!

The little red table

it sits on is from my Dad's

cabin up in Maine.

We found this shelf at a yard sale for five dollars.

I sprayed it white.

I just loved the mirrored stars

and bought three of them.

I plan on doing a wall of them here.

But we haven't really gotten to this room yet

so I just hung one where

there was an existing nail to

see if I even liked them.

I do!

The challenge in here is going to be

the bunk beds.
An attic celing makes this a tough one.

I found a few ideas on Pinterest.

The other challenge is getting Bebe to

change her mind about this aqua color.

She loves it!

Remember, she is just three.

But she made me stop and

question my thought of painting it white!

Then I remembered

the awful cast it leaves in the room.

If not white, then what color then?

Stay tuned...

Although I have no idea when this

room will be tackled.

In the meantime I have

a few finds I'm going to list soon.

Enjoy your day!
