This might be my favorite project I’ve ever put together. Mainly because this space was in desperate need of design and function, but having girls that love all the girly things made it even better.
First off, the walls needed a touch of color. These arches were taking over my Pinterest page, and I knew it was a trend I had to jump on. Want to know how incredibly simple these are?!
- Tie a piece of string to a pencil, with the length being at least the radius of the semi circle part of your arch.
- Hold the end of the string in the center, pulling the pencil straight out, and drawing a half circle, or the top of your arch.
- With painter’s tape and a level, line the sides of the arch straight down. I have linked a tutorial from my Instagram page here if you would like to check it out in video form!
I used the colors from Behr called Quilted Heart, Radiant Pink, Palamino Pony, Canyon Sun, Cuban Plaza, and Salmon Bisque. The colors on the swatches were almost an exact match on the wall, which I loved, because sometimes seeing it big picture, it’s not quite the same. I did go with a Flat finish, because I didn’t want there to be a shine to it, and I knew the girls wouldn’t be to harsh on the walls.
I’ve linked as much as I could below, but a lot we made ourselves! My husband built the girls’ table, which I love because we were able to customize the dimensions and fit the space perfectly. The design was simple, with a basic table top and hair pin legs spray painted gold to match the rest of the room.
The teepee we made ourselves too! By using a few 2 by 4’s, an off white king sized flat sheet, a few screws, and some jute rope, it was so simple to put together and give us the organic boho look we wanted for their playroom!
These rattan chairs were every blogger’s obsession when Homegoods released them. I saw multiple friends scouring through different locations to find them, which I think we even stopped into at least five to find these two and the bench. They no longer carry the style, but I found an almost exact replica below!
The girls have made so many memories in this space already! I love that with a splash of color and a few pieces to organize, we turned a small loft area, into a functioning playroom with room to grow!
happy designing!
