apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I love this color combo! The pops of turquoise are so pretty. I also really like that Rosie won't outgrow this room in a year... it has a good mix of little kid and "big girl" elements.

I absolutely love this Ferm Living paper and have been wracking my brains over where I could possibly use it! Also love the galvanized metal sconce.

Aww, I bet she DOES like her "woom"; that is one cool "woom"!

thanks!

In my top 3--this is wonderful! Color combos, accessories, wallpaper, hand-me-downs--I love it all. The branches are wonderful, as is the bird egg art piece. Bravo! Could you please describe the framed item above the little chair in the corner? Thanks.

This is in my top three as well. I love it!

SQ-the piece in the corner is actually a shadow-box with a piece of needlepoint upholstery in it. it was done by my husbands great-grandmother, and i after recovered the antique chair it was on, i couldn't bear to part with it. it just so happens that it worked in ro's room. you can see the chair here...

thanks for the kudos, all!

Love the colors!

-Love the blue trunk on top of unused changing table.
--Love the light over the wall shelf.
---Love the mini vanity!
----Love the sheer fabric over the bed.

I've been drooling over that wall paper for months now. I love to see it in use! And ditto on the bold yellows. I think I'm craving something mega cheerful these days, and this room fits the bill. Great job!

Bringing nature indoors!

The thing that I'm looking at in this room is the canopy. I've got like five photos clipped of different ways to cozify a big bed with curtains for a small girl, this was just what I was contemplating except hung from the ceiling...great to see it in practice. I wonder how much of a pull-on-it hazard this is? Has your little one tried that yet?

CUTE room! I love a room to grow into, and this is such a good example. I'll also get in the queue for issuing congrats on using that wallpaper. :)

ro has not pulled on it once. nor, has betsy, our 5-year-old who has special needs and is still in a very grabby stage. no one, even our boys (7 & 8), has really paid it any attention. because, in all honesty, i thought it was going to have to be taken down. so far, so good. and, really, it's just a sheer. if it came down, no harm, no foul. :)

LOVE the wallpaper! The turquoise and yellow, and the birdies, too. What a darling room! :)

I love this room, I want to have my room look like this.

ADORABLE!!!!!

I am so in love with this room! Vibrant, juicy colors with an awesome combo of patterns and textures - and so happy and bright. AND age appropriate. Rosie is a very lucky little girl! Would love to see your other children's rooms as well!

love this room, especially the way you used the alexander henry birdseed fabric!

BEYOND ADORABLE!!! Sunny, cheerful, lighthearted, chipper...everything a girl dreams to wake up too!
love this!

Where did you get that chandelier!?! I love it!

WOWSA!! What a gorgeous room! I think yellow is usually too much but this room is BEYOND perfect. Great job ~

i bought the chandelier from lowe's several years ago for our first daugter, betsy's, room. it has since been spraypainted several times. this time i even painted the crystals, and i really like how it turned out.

Loooove that chandelier:)

Voted! From Crystal's blog.

I love this room. Yellow is such a bright cheery color, it makes me happy just peeking in.

Fantastic Job! Absolutely adore it:-)

I love love the colors in this room, i want it for my own! :D Great job!!

Love the colors, patterns, wallpaper, painted chandelier. Yay!
