My daughters' bedroom needs help
Comments (23)Wow, you know I'm not so sure about your question regarding the chair rail. Of course typical height from what I understand is 32-36 inches depending on chair height and such, but for this situation, that's a good question. The concern I would have about putting it too much higher would be a matter of proportion and how pleasing to the eye that would be. If 36 inches is still too low, you may want to consider doing a separate thread and asking what heights other people ended up with when doing something similar. In regards to color for the rail, that is totally up to you, but I wouldn't worry about matching it to the furniture. I would want to match the rail with the trim and doors because it looks more cohesive. Glad you like the polk-a-dot idea, just keep them sparce, it won't take a lot to give it that fun look....See MoreI need help making this sofa work for my daughter's first apartment
Comments (57)My daughter and I were out today and bought the original print fabric to make one large pillow for the sofa. She also picked out a solid color fabric in the darker green that's in the print for another slightly smaller pillow. I liked a stripe that coordinated well, but she says she wants to keep things simple. She has also decided to use the rug from IKEA. Haven't purchased it yet, tho. End tables, coffee table and lamps will be the next choices to make....See MoreDesparate need of help decorating my daughters bedroom !
Comments (20)How old is your daughter? I think you have to start with something you love and build from there. Are you going with subtle? I think this print would look good with the company store bedding: https://www.etsy.com/listing/546642885/mermaid-art-mermaid-decor-watercolor?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=mermaid%20print&ref=sr_gallery-1-3 Or if you want something with more whimsy, this artist has 3 cute prints, a mermaid with blonde hair, brunette hair, and red hair: https://www.etsy.com/listing/593763509/mermaid-print-mermaid-art-brown-hair?ref=shop_home_active_8 Also, unless you plan to rearrange the room so that the bed isn't tucked in the corner, I don't think I would do a large area rug. What about a nice sheepskin rug in front of the bed? My son has two twin size beds in his room and he likes the sheepskin rug in between. Ikea has some that are machine washable if that's a concern....See MoreHelp designing my daughter’s big girl room
Comments (10)A canopy would work as long as it’s a twin. I love that look and kind of forgot to explore that option!!! And I agree, tall bureaus aren’t ideal but unfortunately it’s my only choice in this room. There’s only wall space for one horizontal dresser and she will really need the extra storage of the two lingerie chests since her closet is tiny. All of our furniture throughout our home is anchored to the wall (she’s our 3rd kid), so that will be a given. This won’t be her forever room, so trying to make do for the next five or so years until we either move or build an addition. I absolutely adore those drawer pulls 😍 thank you SO much for the recommendation!...See MoreJAN MOYER
