Sareny's New Room

With Sareny starting school, we decided she needed some space of her own. We have a four bedroom house, but to this point have had all three children sharing a room. It was getting a little crowded in there, and I was worried about how Sareny could keep her school stuff from getting destoyed by the little kids.
Here is what our guest room, or "Grammy Jo's room", looked like before our remodel.

Sareny picked out purple and pink for her new room. Keith suggested a simple paint scheme; unfortunately I had something a little more complicated pictured.

We did purple, pink, and white stripes on the bottom and a lighter pink on the top with a white chair rail inbetween. After spending many hours touching up the stripes, I had to give Keith's idea of a "simple paint" scheme some credit. We'll be doing Isaac's room next, and unfortunately for him, I daresay we'll be going with Keith's plan.

We got her a new desk to keep her school supplies in and to do her homework at.

My friend Debra G made these pegs for Sareny when she was one, and they fit in perfectly with her new decor.

We also got a new dresser and new bedding and painted the old headboard white to complete the look.

I am really happy with how it turned out, and more importantly, Sareny loves it and "it makes her heart happy."
