I can’t wait to share the girls new shared room with you!

It’s going to be a long post, so buckle in and get ready for a lot of pics and links! (some affiliate links too thanks!

So obviously baby boy needed his own nursery. (although Sadie badly wanted to share with him…I think she would have backed out of that within a few weeks of nightly feedings lol)

I talked previously about the great room switcharoo, which happened around Christmas time, but only now have the final touches taken place and I finally got the room cleaned up enough for pics!

I down sized my sewing room from the largest room (see it here), to the old nursery.

Then we finished the (new) girls room, including changing the sliding glass door to a sparkling new window, paint (Kelly Moore Swiss Coffee), and new baseboards.

Then, finally, the boy nursery (Sadie and Charlottes old shared room) was completed. (almost simultaneously ha!) more on his room soon!



First look into the room! I cannot for the life of me find where I purchased this teal polka dot sign, but here’s one in muslin.

I love it and the girls think it’s hilarious.

I’ll link in more detail to what’s in this photo, but just wanted to mention the rug here-I got it at Rugs USA (in baby pink, 5’x8′ size) which is where I get all my rugs these days…the sales are insanely good and shipping is usually pretty quick! the quality has been great on all the rugs I’ve gotten there. Which is….4 or 5 now I think.

Also the girls low loft bunk bed is from Amazon.

There’s a little tiny nook right by the door which is perfect for some sweater/hat storage hooks and of course, initials! Always love those.

Hook rack is from Amazon (similar), C & A are vintage, and the S is from Land of Nod (and spray painted black)

I definitely wanted to use Ava’s chicken wire photo display board, so I tucked it into this corner and now the girls have a fun spot to hang photos, cards, or pictures. The Ladies sign was from Zulily. I bought some cute gold clips for hanging!

And around this corner is a tiny little spot for art, and the closet. exciting stuff I know, closets.

I spray painted this frame gold and made a quick little quote art in Illustrator. My talented sis embroidered the beautiful floral hoop above!

Then around to the bed! another little nook got filled in with this fab wire basket from target (with the blue handles), and it’s where all their softies live! I thrifted the gold frame above it and filled it with some art from GroopDealz.

You can see more of their quilts in these posts.

Charlotte’s quilt….Sadie’s quilt.

The cute white shams are quilted too and from Amazon.

cat pillow post here!

I saw this adorable sign on Etsy (not for sale anymore it looks like) and quickly made my own..love it!

The book slings (in small & pink) are from Land of Nod, and gold polka dot pillow on Sadie’s bed is from Amazon. they love having a little spot to keep special papers or books away from their
kraken
Ava.

In between the window and bed is their bookshelf…chock full of books, and there are even more in the closet, lol! we love us some books.

The pink frame is from Home Goods, and the little teal one is from Michaels.

The little white kraken on top of the BabyLit books is from Zulily.

Clock is from Hobby Lobby! I loove the mint color and it helps me keep the girls on track when getting ready for school.

The cute blue sign I got for a review AGES ago and the shop doesn’t exist anymore. I still love it! The little owl piggy bank is from HomeGoods…floral frame from Target a few years ago I think..? The yellow I know my Savior Lives art was a gift from my good bloggy pal Emilie, and the little gold mercury glass vase was from Target too I think.

You can see our Little Golden book collection is pretty heavy, lol! We have over 200 now I think!

The room needed something in this space under the window, so I found this fun green Ottoman for a little reading/seating/storage.

We keep the girls extra blankets and quilts inside!

Over to Ava’s little corner! (which is my fave corner coincidentally)

Her little toddler bed is from Amazon…mint pillowcase from Target, and the butterfly sequin pillow is from HomeGoods. More about her quilt here.

I adore these black and white pom pom trimmed curtains…I knew I wanted bright and pastels, but mixed with graphic black and white for the room…so these were the ticket.

I have had my eye on these Bright Lab Lights for the girls room and finally just ordered them! The quality is great and it makes a great nightlight. Plus they are GORGEOUS during the day.

They were easy to put together too! I did have a little mix up with my order and they didn’t let me know it had been cancelled due to some out of stock colors, but they gave me a discount to make up for that and shipped fairly quickly after that. Just FYI!

Now let’s swing on over to the dresser! Almost done!

The dresser itself is from Ikea, we got it a loong time ago for Sadie and Charlotte to share but I never posted their own shared room. I painted it this teal color and added white knobs from Hobby Lobby.

I loved personalizing their room with this art collage over their dresser!

The little gold framed embroidery was done by my great grandmother, I believe..maybe great great grandmother? My Grandma gave it to me and it’s such a treasure! The LA LA Love you print was from a shop on Etsy that is no longer open..the metal kraken is from Hobby Lobby (spray painted yellow), Totoro print from Etsy, and main floral krewel piece is vintage, from Etsy.

Lamp was target a few years back, the little unicorn is a nightlight…from Zulily.

On the other side of the main piece is this adorable Sister make the Best of Friends gold foil print, a little heart print I created and hung up with a gold clip…this fun Princess Leia line drawing, a Degas ballerina postcard, and a vintage silhouette of a woman…also from my Grandma’s collection!

The little pink flower/vase is from Target, yellow flower and vase & round frame (spray painted gold) are from Home Goods.

Whew! Just about done!

A quick peek into the closet! Since I’m nosy and like seeing how people organize, I like to share that with you all too! We moved Ava’s nursery dresser into the closet since she still needed to use it. On top of it is Sadie’s jewelry box, her kendama, a bucket with all their socks missing a mate…and a plastic bin with a bunch of early reader books in it. On the right hand side we store all of our wrapping paper and bags. It’s just where it fits in our house, lol! On the first shelf is an Elsa nightlight because you know Frozen had to make it’s way into this room somehow, right? Also a bin of Barbies, small toys, and another of Sadie’s chapter books that we’re saving for Charlotte and Ava now. The top shelf has Ballet clothes, larger sizes & summer size clothes, and a bin of shoes.

On the other side is their hamper, and a row of storage for toys they can reach…ie My Little Ponies, Shopkins, American Girl Doll, and Princess toys…above that is all their dresses! yikez! still surprised we fit them all! On the top shelf are sheets in different sizes. It’s nice to have the closet all organized and everything to have a place, even if it’s not always put away!

Well, you finished the post! ALL DONE WOO HOO! Hope you enjoyed!
