~ Girls Room ~

Tilda Cat,and a jar of fabric strawberries I made for the girls
Thought I would just show you a little bit of what Ive been up to lately.
My girls decided they would like a bit of a change in their bedroom, I had mentioned I was thinking of doing a spot of decorating.
Well !!! It didn't take long for them,to start springing forth with ideas,and asking ''can we make a mood board ???''(I wonder who's mentioned mood board's before )
Of course we took a quick look at pinterest first (Good source for Idea's)  and then then looked at what we already had,I'd kept a bag from Joules,because it was so pretty,so that was the start of deciding the colours
The girls love there new room ,but Ive yet to finish a little patchwork/quilted cushion,,Isn't that always the way ,I have made it all by hand,with new and vintage fabric,It'll fit nicely in the room ,when It,s finished???
As for the wardrobe doors,I'd seen a few wall's papered in a patchwork style with different wallpaper on pinterest ,so that was the inspiration for the built in doors ,they where just painted plain before
A great and thrifty Idea,as it didn't cost anything for our wallpaper samples











 Lovely hand drill there !! ( remove tools in future )





Also the little bird cage that's hanging from the ceiling,was a charity shop find ...It had my name on
it !!! just what I was looking for
I love the bunting ,we bought that in Whitby at Alfie loves Ava ,a lovely shop that Ive mentioned before.
The room is nearly finished,I just have to paint the pine furniture white as I think It'll look so much nicer and tadahhh the transformation will be COMPLETE and not forgetting two very happy daughter's
