New Room (Sort of!)
Posted by admin
on 3:29 AM
While I was away over the weekend, my mother redecorated my room! Well, kind of. All the furniture was moved around and new goodies were added! I'm extremely happy and I love it all!
Here is what my room looks like from the door. I have my pink and green paisley chair with the (new!) Keep Calm and Carry on pillow Then, there's the bookcase and my bed (with the new madras pillows and pink sheets).
My closet: it goes father back to the left but now it's so clean! All my summer Lillies are gone!
Here is the (extremely messy) vanity with a stool that matches the print of the chair in the picture before, my mannequin (whom I named Lilly...), my bedside table, and another bookshelf somewhere behind Lilly!
Lilly picture frames with family photos...
The Grace Kelly painting (my favorite), Lilly pinwheels and a mannequin jewelry holder.
My new motto!
Lilly Barbie, and assorted fashion books.
Miniature Lilly dresses on the window!
Framed (pink and green!) Lilly prints.
Lastly, here is my Robert Best for Barbie picture (from Pottery Barn Kids)!
Have a great day!!
xoxo, Hannah

Redecorating Part 2: Fabrics and Colors
Posted by admin
on 8:42 PM
When decorating a room, the base of it all, meaning the furniture, is obviously extremely important. But, what is equally important is the fabric and colors that accent the given furniture. It sets the tone and allows you to be creative. Now that I have furniture out of the way, I have to find the perfect bedding, rugs, and accessories for my bedroom. It will be adorable in pink, green, and white. I haven't decided on what shade of pink (there are so many great shades!), but I do know the type of things that I want in my room.
If I could marry a rug, I would marry this one. It's from the Lilly for Garnet Hill collection, and it's absolutely adorable. It goes perfectly with my vision, and it's Lilly. How much better can it get?
What's good about finding things that I like all from the same collection is that the colors are going to match. This is basically the rug in pillow form, and I'll have no woes about color choice because it fits right in...
...As does this "Tickled Pink" throw. It looks so soft and girly!
I'm about to show y'all some of my favorite bedding. Hopefully, I can recreate one of these beds!
I found the ultimate bedding (It's shown in the picture above to the right). I am ecstatic right now. I need to get my mother and convince her about the bedding. It's called Paradise Patch and IT'S SO DANG CUTE AND GIRLY AND LILLY! Don't worry, I'm just freaking out a little.
I like the idea of monogrammed shams. I'm a sucker for anything monogrammed, as y'all know. But, I haven't made any decisions on anything else concerning bedding.
These are some pillows from PB Teen, and they're really cute. I would probably get it in green since basically the entire room I want will be pink!
Do y'all know of any good interior design websites or cute pink and green bedding? What do y'all think about this "dream room"? Let me know!
I hope y'all have a fantastic weekend! I only have 2 more days until I'm on an airplane to CT so I'll be making the most out of it!

Redecorating Part 1: Furniture
Posted by admin
on 1:47 AM
I am in an interior decorating phase. Besides the obvious fact of wanting to redecorate my room, I'm considering it for my possible job ("when I grow up")! I think it's so much fun, plus I have learned a lot from my mom (who has excellent taste in design). Last night, we both went furniture browsing on the internet, and we visited the Pottery Barn Teen website. I've been a fan of theirs for years, and I found the most adorable line of furniture. It's called "Lilac" and it's clean, white, and classic, just perfect for my dream bedroom!
My dream room is obviously pink and green (and white!). The fantasy that I've had since practically birth is to have a canopy bed, but unfortunately, the canopy bed that I love isn't in the Lilac collection. I know that doesn't seem like that big of a deal, but the white of the bed is different then the white of all the other items. So, I found another fantastic bed that I'm so excited about! I'm craving a desk because the last time I had one, I was in third or fourth grade and I didn't use it very much because there's not much work to do when you're that young. I don't need a vanity because there's a bathroom that I can "groom myself" in, so that saves space.
The desk. Isn't it gorgeous? I may have an unnatural obsession with this item, but it's exactly what I've been looking for! It's not too tall, so I can put it by a window if necessary, and there's lots of storage space which I love.
Now, I like both of these bedside tables, but I can't choose which one I like best. The one of the left, from the Lilac collection (the same as mostly everything I'm going to show y'all), will match the rest of the pieces in the room. It's closed off, so it's clean looking. But, the table on the right is more of a statement. It allows me to put some of my favorite things on it to show off, rather than use it as storage.
I love this dresser. It has a lot of drawers which is great because right now, my dresser can hardly hold anything. I'm extremely OCD about my clothes, and from what I can remember, my exercise clothes are mixed with pajamas which are mixed with sweatshirts and it's driving me crazy! So, with all of the beautiful drawers in the dresser above, I won't have a nervous breakdown concerning organization. It adds height to the room, which is nice, and there's enough room on top for me to actually put a lamp and various photographs.
I'm not so sure that I need these. They're just regular bookshelves, but the thing is that I don't have a ton of books to put on them! I know I can put photos and cute knick-knacks on the shelves, but I'm just not...sold. I'll only have one, for sure, because my room doesn't have that much room, plus I don't think I have enough random items to put on two bookcases!
Pretty, pretty mirror. It's a dream. The mirror I have now is on the back of my door, and I've already had to replace it because it breaks very easily (if someone rams into the other side of the door...I have a younger brother. Enough said.). This mirror is very classic looking, and it's great if I want to move things around in my room.
Yay! A bed! It's so big! The bed I have now is a trundle day bed, and it's too small and really hard to make the bed. This is clean and pretty and matches everything else and I'm just in love with it!
Hopefully this whole room-makeover goes perfectly! Tell me what y'all think about the furniture!
xoxo, Hannah
