Thank you to WayFair for partnering with me on this post.
Do you ever start a home project only to abandon it for months before getting back to it?
We're usually pretty good at starting and finishing projects within a reasonable time frame, but for some reason, this girls room refresh has been in the works for over a year now.
I promised the girls last Christmas that we would do a room refresh for them, started painting shortly after then life got busy and somehow I ended up abandoning the project.
In fact, their room looks like one hot mess right now with one coat of white paint with the older colour still peaking through.
I feel awful that the girls have been living in an unfinished room for so long so I promised them it would be finished by this Christmas {which is quickly approaching - YAY}
Having always lived in a three bedroom home, our girls have always shared a bedroom.
Even though they are sisters, they couldn't be more different in personality and style which is why it was important for me to have their input in this room refresh.
The girls agreed to keep the paint colour neutral so they could add their own personality in the form of toys, books, accessories etc to the room.
For the girls beds we decided to go with these gorgeous white Matheny Panel beds in White with a mid century modern night stand in between.
One of my girls loves a more modern look while the other is very into vintage & thrifty finds so I thought this was a great way to marry the two styles.
Both the girls like pink, so we threw in some pops of the colour by doing a neutral desk with a pink chair, pink bedding and a couple of accent baskets.
I wanted to add some symmetry to the room with matching Art above the girls beds so I asked the girls to think of something they could both agree on.
Back in the summer, we visited a farm with Alpacas and the girls fell in love {so did I}, so they suggested Alpacas above their beds.
I put together the photo above for inspiration for the room and really love how it turned out and can't wait to see it become a reality over the next few weeks!
