Emma's Big Daughter Room | Existent Furniture

After living inward our identify for a twelvemonth in addition to a half, Emma's room is finally furnished in addition to complete.  I cause got to acknowledge that Mike actually pushed me to larn to it, in addition to brand some decisions.  I had kept putting it off - later all, her room was completely fine.  She had a groovy upholstered headboard nosotros bought in conclusion year... but that was it.  I was searching for the perfect pino dresser for her in addition to an antique bedside table.   The search takes a while, I would say him.  He reminded me that if I waited equally good long, she mightiness cause got fifty-fifty to a greater extent than opinions than she does forthwith : ).                                                    After much searching, I institute the perfect pino breast of drawers that was petite inward stature, alongside porcelain knobs in addition to a toll tag that would've position it at i of the most expensive items inward our home.  And it was going to become inward her cupboard (since her room is hence small, in addition to her cupboard is hence big).  I merely couldn't create it!  I showed it to Mike to handle me alongside my determination in addition to he was baffled at the price, in addition to the fact that the drawers didn't easily slide inward in addition to out... which meant they would never last shut/always last messy.  He appreciates antiques, in addition to items alongside a history, but nosotros discussed that nosotros wanted Emma's room to experience comfortable in addition to easy.  Adding investment antiques that don't component perfectly (but gave me the "look" I was going for), wasn't the correct decision.  

I gear upward out on a search for a novel gear upward of slice of furniture that would cause got a classic, whimsical in addition to nostalgic feel.      I typically don't visit matching slice of furniture sets.  Too predictable, equally good matchy-matchy.  However, inward a room that is normally strewn alongside dolls, skirts, socks, shoes, toys in addition to toys in addition to toys... I started to think that mayhap uncomplicated was best.

The hunt was hence simple.  On the recommendation from my sis who lately heard that a Jenny Lind collection that was in i lawsuit at Land Of Nod, was forthwith available at Target - my determination was done.  You mightiness holler back that Emma had a Jenny Lind manner crib from Pottery Barn inward her nursery.  It was the perfect mix of nostalgia in addition to whimsy.

Jenny Lind Furniture Collection at Target, this is not sponsored : )

I am hence impressed alongside the quality.  It is venture wood.  It is heavy.  The pigment color is a perfect soft, creamy white.  It was delivered inward well-nigh a calendar week in addition to a half.

I accessorized alongside the pino destination I was looking for inward the antiques, which added merely plenty charm in addition to primitive feel, inward an un-rickety way.  

I cause got a decorating color philosophy.   I also think that whatever color or tone, should last repeated three times to brand a infinite experience right.  In Emma's room, the colors are Cream/White, Pink, Gold, Medium Brown in addition to Black, each of those are repeated inward a few places throughout the room.   

I used natural linen on the 2 roman shades, in addition to on the light shade.  Matching shades in addition to windows is a groovy identify to notice continuity inward a room.   There are gilt accents inward the wreath, the gilt stars in addition to her "E" that sits over her silhouette.  We used diverse shades of pinkish - the palest on the champaign of the wallpaper, in addition to then brought out the brighter rosette from her wallpaper on the embroidery on her bed.  The dark in addition to white from her silhouette is echoed inward some other assault the other side of her room in addition to inward the dark hardware on cream doors.  The antique pino woods destination is used inward the lamp, inward the frame, in addition to before long to last on a stool that volition become alongside her mini vanity table... equally before long equally I notice i : )

The pale pinkish velvet pillow ($28) from the Valentines Collection is the perfect finishing affect for her room.  Puppy finds it rattling cozy.  Emma uses it equally her pillow every night, equally good : )

I wallpapered the room alongside handle from my Mom.  I LOVE this sweetness paper.  You tin come across to a greater extent than details on that adventure, here.

I added roman shades to her windows from my all fourth dimension favorite roman shade resources - Home Depot. You mightiness holler back that I used them inward an ivory linen inward our chamber in addition to bathroom.  For her room, I chose a natural linen, inward a fine weave called "Oxford Jute."  You tin notice it here.  The toll starts at well-nigh $125 each - a groovy toll for a custom shade.  The character is superb.  We are getting cook to gild these same shades inward this same cloth for our hearth room in addition to dining.

I institute these footling mini potted flowers at Trader Joe's.  They are the sweetest thing.

This perfume bottle is i of Emma's most prized possessions : )   See that tiny cupcake?  From her calico critters bakery.

We are large on identify shoes unopen to here.  They are good used in addition to good loved.

I took these photos piece Emma was at schoolhouse i morning, giving me fourth dimension to larn everything merely how I wanted it - which hardly ever happens, hence I indulged myself.

This same collection has been unopen to since she was a infant in addition to even hence are all loved in addition to played with... normally equally spectators or pupils.

The silhouettes are from Pottery Barn Kids.  I decided to maintain the artwork rattling uncomplicated inward her room for now, since it is normally pretty busy alongside toys in addition to "things."  Everywhere.

Sometimes the littlest things brand the biggest impression - merely equally these stars have.  They are Emma's favorite, in addition to mine, too.

In her closet, you lot tin come across that I chose a simple, white dresser - Caroline Pottery Barn Kids.  I even hence think well-nigh that sweetness pino dresser, though... mayhap someday : ). Meanwhile, Emma loves having a large daughter dresser to maintain her clothes in. 

In amount disclosure, on a recent trip to Target she loved this "aqua" bluish reading light in addition to merely had to cause got it for her room.  I think it is sweetness she is excited well-nigh her decor in addition to compromised alongside her.   It does add together a overnice juxtaposition affect of contemporary.  It is also a hint at her progressing manner - she continues to habiliment most of the items that I option out, in addition to then adds 2-3 pilus bows inward crazy colors or a brilliant pinkish sparkly skirt.  

She is completely delighted alongside her large daughter room, in addition to is constantly adding her personal affect : )
