About This Space

This is my 3 year old's big girl room. I had so much fun decorating it and she LOVES her room.
I found the headboard in the garbage (all the projects are also under my craft and painted it. I only wish the headboard would be a little taller. Maybe I'll put it on blocks to elevate it one day. When she is older, I will probably move the bed over the corner (more in the center of the room and hang up long curtains but for now she needs room to play and I don't want her to fall out of her (Queen : bed.
I made the bed skirt and attached it with velcro. I painted and made the lampshade. I created the pictures on the computer. The flower lamps are from Ikea and I spray painted the center yellow. I painted and made the bird pillow. The striped boxes are gift boxes from Sephora and I found the rest of the boxes at Marshalls and Ross.

the paint is Behr paint from Home Depot: Hopeful (690 A-2, Sweet Taffy (690 A-3, Honeydew (410 A-3 and I tinted the darker green myself, because I didn't like the original darker green that I brought home.

I love what you have done to the room. It has inspired me to do the same to my daughters room. She is nine years old and she loves it. Can you please let me know the names of the colors (paint you used from top to bottom? Thank you!

I'm sorry for not answering some of the questions sooner, but I have not been able to post any comments. Don't know why.
to LucieA: When I tinted the color myself, I just started mixing with colors that I had left in the garage. My goal was to match it to the fabric that I had for the lamp shades and I got pretty close, I think.

I LOVE these paint colors and would love to use them in my daughter's room. You said that you tinted the darker green yourself, could you elabarate on that? What color did you start with and use to tint. Thank you so much. Great job with the room I wish I was that creative to come up with a decor scheme like that.

Phenomenal job, colors and talent!!!! I could go on and on. Just beautiful! I too have a question regarding the pictures. I read you did the pics with Illustrator; however I would like to find out where you found the pics (website, software, etc. or were they a part of Illustrator?

penelope_2u:
I had the pictures printed on regular paper at a copy shop and yes the polka-dot frames are part of the print.
I don't know if you have worked with Illustrator before, if you haven't, it is a little hard to explain what I did. The program isn't that easy to use. You can pretty much vector trace anything.
