Well well.
My baby went away to overnight camp yesterday
and won’t return until Friday.
What to do, what to do?
How about give her room a makeover?
You up for coming along with me in this process?
This before photo is pretty,
but she is outgrowing the light pink.
The goal.
The goal.Here it is.
The picture she picked out as to what she wants her room to look like.
Pretty huh?
So, the paint is bought, the pillows sewn, now for the fun part……
It’s a total surprise.
She thinks that it will be a couple years before
I get around to doing this.
Here’s the catch.
She is obsessed with candy, sugar, baking, etc.
I think she will be a chef one day.
So, I have to incorporate her pez collection……
Hum, this could be interesting!
I thought I would update you each night on what
I did that day and show you photos along the way.
Sound good?
OK, off to go make a giant latte before I start.
Talk to you tonight!
xoxo
Can't wait to see the results. My guest room is that same color. I have a creamy white slipcovered headboard – I really like it and I can't wait to see all the little touches you put into your daughters space!
CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!
Soooo fun! I can't wait to see the finished product…it's going to be GORGEOUS! And yes…I'm interested to see how you incorporate the PEZ 🙂
How exciting…Cant wait to see the daily updates. A girls dream come true. Thank you for sharing.

Sounds like fun to me (;
Ooh! How fun! What an awesome mom you are! I can't wait to see the updates 🙂 Have fun!

I can't wait to see your room makeover finished! I have only boys, so I haven't gotten to do any of this fun girly decorating 🙂
Love the colors – a very grown up pallate. Good luck to you and can't wait to see up dates!
I can't wait to see the end results, this room is so… lovely. Will you be selling anything from the "pink" room? I'm interested if you are. Thanks. Sarah
She is so lucky to have such a cool mom!! Keep us updated, I can't wait to see the progress!

What a fun surprise to give her when she returns! I so miss having a daughter at home…. Mine went off to college last year and is only home sporadically. But she's just met her new year's roommates and has volunteered me to help them decorate their campus apartment! Can't wait!
Everyone is saying they can't wait. Exactly!
Wow! Sounds like fun! Can't wait to see it! I have a son who has a Pez collection so I can't wait to see how you display them.
:)Alyssa
That is going to be so fun to do, I love the pink before…..but this new room will be more grown up-ish for her. Cannot wait to go through the process with you, can't wait to see the Pez collection..cute!
The cutest thing ever …the two little beds at the end of the big bed……..SWEET stuff!!!
Gee I wonder where she gets her great taste? I would love that room!
How fun! I hope you are going to post her reaction! It's going to be gorgeous, I'm sure.
This will be a great surprise for your daughter. I like both rooms. Looking forward to seeing the pictures along the way.
Ok…you got me excited!! I can't wait to see what you do as always!! I'm gonna have to save a pic of Savannah's old room to my computer if that's ok—it was her bedroom that made me fall in love with My Sweet Savannah's style on Rate My Space so long ago! lol Can't wait to see what you get done today & you just inspired me to go ahead and paint my upstairs, why not..right?!
What a great surprise for her!
Can't wait to see the finished room and her reaction!
Her inspiration picture is gorgeous. I can't wait to see the process and what all you get done. Hugs, Marty
Can't wait!!!! What a great surprise! Excited to see your progress… 🙂
The before is beautiful and has great bones! I completely understand a girls desire to have a little more grown up look though. Looking forward to seeing it in progress.
So pretty! Can't to see you work your magic.
If anyone could pull this off is you. Her room is very nice, I cant wait to see the final product
How fun! I am excited to follow along with you and see you work your magic!
Oh so fun!! I can't wait to see the final results. I love the paint color and what you're doing. I'm excited to hear about her reaction too 🙂
fun fun fun!!
She is going to be SO excited! You are a such a sweet mom for doing this for her!! Can't wait to see how it evolves…..
sounds great!! what a BIG surprise!!!
Lynda
fun fun fun!!!
So exciting!!! Can't wait to see what you do!!!!
I will love to see what you do with the pez collection!! my son has the same collection and i have no idea as to what to do with it! what a great mom you are, she will love the surprise!! have fun!
How fun!! can't wait to see how it turns out!
Can't wait to see it. I love to suprise my kids with things like this. I ran out of time when my son was at scout camp, too much procrastination. I did get it done while he was at church camp. I have to find time when my youngest is away to do hers. I was too mopey when she was gone to camp this last time.
Umm can you fly to Phx and come decorate my nursery and my master bedroom! Your home looks stunning her bedroom belongs in a magazine!! Can't wait to see the final outcome.
She has such good taste. Must get it from her mom 🙂 I look forward to seeing how it all turns out. Have a great time.
The current room is adorable, but her inspiration pic is beautiful too. Can't wait to see it!
Sounds like fun! I can't wait to see all that you do with the room! Although….I must say, I love the room as it is…my 3 year old would love it too! Maybe I'll use THAT as MY inspiration LOL! Have a great week – love reading your blog 🙂
Beautiful rooms. Can't wait to see what you do and how you will incorporate those Pez's. Have fun!
Waiting to see each result, with great anticipation. Thanks for sharing such wonderful inspiration!
Jeanette
Oh so fun! Thanks so much for taking us along for the fun ride. Can't wait to see your progress! How was your day at the BH? I bet amazing!
Cant wait…. I will check all night to see if you have posted anything… always enjoy your blog and of course all your great ideas and work!
Melaine, This has nothing to do with your daughter's room, but I just had to say, "Thank you!" I am repainting my living room the Ralph Lauren oatmeal color you have in your home. Only one wall is half-way painted and I am LOVING it!!
Can't wait to see it all come together. We just moved our youngest into big sister's old room. Still adding the finishing touches. Now big sis needs a new room, for the occassional visits. I am loving those colors!
What a heavenly bedroom…both of them!! What a wonderful mama you are 🙂 Can't wait to follow this journey yay!
I can't wait to see the transformation – and let me know if you have any "pink" stuff you are ready to get rid of, my little Fia is a PINK girl!
Chelsea
I love doing things like this…I ALWAYS decorate their rooms without letting the kids see it…makes it so much more FUN! Excited to see your "after" the "before" is beautiful already!
Yahoo!!! Can-Not-Wait!!!
Love the after but the before is pretty darned cute too. Can't wait to see the progress. My kiddos are at camp this week too.
OOOooooo, this is going to be such fun!!! Can't wait, love te inspiration picture!
