Growing up and Changing Spaces!

I have two daughters fourteen years apart, and it was time to update both girls’ rooms. My youngest daughter recently turned three, so we changed her room from nursery to little girl’s room by taking down her crib and putting up a twin bed. My seventeen year old wanted to update her room up by creating a more sophisticated space. My goal for both rooms was wanted to keep the current color schemes so we did have to repaint and buy everything new.

Below is a photo of Annalise’s nursery before we made changes. When we put up her big girl bed, I knew exactly the bedding I wanted for her. Enter Beddy’s once again! I chose Beddy’s in Vintage Blush because it works wonderfully with the existing color scheme in her room! (And you can use code NISSALYNN for 15% off your order!)

The white iron bed has a special place in my heart as we bought it for my first daughter 15 years ago and stored it in the attic hoping we would have another little girl again some day. When I found out I was having Annalise after three boys - I was over the moon! I was excited to put this bed frame again!

Love the blush poke-a-dot inside of Beddy’s!

So excited when my Beddy’s blankets arrived!

I used both the Gray Dot and Blush Beddy’s blankets and layered them to make the bed look extra “fluffy.” These blankets are so soft and comfy, I frequently curl up with them when watching TV. (And you can use code NISSALYNN for 15% off your order!)

Our oldest daughter, Kay-Lynn, turned 17 she wanted a little more sleek and stylish look for her bedroom. I wanted a way for her to keep her room more tidy! So I thought Beddy’s would be great idea for my teenage daughter too. Plus Beddy’s would help her make her bed faster before her friends come over!

Here is a photo of my seventeen daughters room before the room improvements. My daughter has her own style and she knew what she wanted to change. She chose the Modern Gray Bedddy’s in all cotton for her bedding. We also changed out the darker gray rug, for a lighter one, and removed the decorative pom poms in the corner. She picked out the hanging plant holders and the faux succulent plants all on her own. She kept the rustic wood signs (from Hobby Lobby), above her bed, but added lights around them to make them more fun. We kept the yellow and gray comforter that resting at the bottom of her bed. You can find a similar on here. We also added a small white desk, lamp, and chair so she has a place to do homework.

It’s amazing how changing out the bedding and a few accessories can make such a huge difference!

Spiffing Up the Stairs!

Have you ever though about spiffing up your staircase? Spring is right around the corner and its a great time to do house projects! Look at the amazing difference trim work can make! Before is the stairs right before the carpet was added, after is when the carpet is laid and my husband added the stair trim! I’ll write more details later.

Adding the trim work make such a difference! Some day we hope to change the stair cse to wood instead of carpet. But for now with a baby, carpet is safer.
