I have talked before about getting started redecorating my daughters bedroom...
My girl loves purple and she would love it if everything in her room was purple.
Purple walls.
Purple drapes.
Purple bedding.
Purple, Purple, Purple
everything.
everything.
I have a much more muted palette than she does when it comes to decorating...
Ansley is my little wild girl and when kids get to a certain age
they want what they want in their rooms
including posters, colors and patterns.
So we have been talking about how she wants her room to look.
She isn't 100% decided on the whole look yet... but she really wanted new bedding.
She had a pink poodle blanket that she was tired of and she wanted something with dark purple, of course.
Luckily, we had a neat opportunity to choose a few items from the Your Zone collection at Walmart for her room-and so she went on a little bedding shopping spree.
We shopped online first and found several comforters and drape options that she liked.
Everything in the Your Zone collection had a really youthful feel to it and the prices were great which meant we could get even more for the $200 we were spending.
After she picked a few things out- I went to the store and shopped a bit more.
They had shag rugs...
Furry pillows and blankets
and lots of bold color choices for a fun teen room
I loaded up my cart with some of the things she liked
and a couple fun accents I found too.
Here's what we brought home for her mini makeover:
A soft rich purple comforter just perfect for her cottage white bed.
A new set of soft lavender sheets
A body pillow case in purple and zebra print
Two creamy white furry flokati rugs
White drapes to dress up her windows
and a couple fun frames for her favorite pictures.
Before:
My daughter was so anxious to put her new stuff out
that she took her old drapes down and started getting the bedding out before
before I got in there and took a before photo! lol!

She is absolutely loving the new bedding pieces and that she got to pick out some dark purples
(instead of all the shabby pale shades that I would have chosen)

and put her own spin on her room.
The purple bedding is furry and has a flower pattern on one side
and is reversible to a plain dark purple if she decides that she likes that better.
The drapes are soft white and they go perfectly with the purple.
I picked up two white flokati rugs and took one of them
and turned it into a big furry pillow for her bed
While the other one sits near her corner windows.
These little frames are perfect for favorite photos
and bring a bit of bling

We haven't painted yet...
and there are a couple other things I am doing in here that are a little bit
of a surprise for her
(shhh)
but she is absolutely loving the new pieces in her room
and is really happy with her mini makeover.
Last night she told me how soft her new blankets were and that she loves them.

I am thinking the bold colors really fit my girls personality
and that her mini makeover came out pretty cute.
